Welcome and thank you for listening! 
Today I am honored to have Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor on the show.  She is the author of two incredible books.  The first is her chronicle and inside look as a neuroscientist on her own hemorrhagic stroke at age 37 entitled, My Stroke of Insight.  The second is her gift to humanity on how to apply the circuitry of the brain to achieve better life decisions and a more peaceful existence.  There are more challenges in the world than ever before, and sometimes we feel that we have limited choices.  Dr. Taylor will show you that we have the power to make each day count when we start from a circuit based on human empathy and love. 
Enjoy this podcast as much as I did.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 314 with Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. 
We have been conditioned to believe that discomfort or an illness can only be fixed by a procedure or medication.  It is out of our hands.  Allopathic reductionist medicine created that concept making us dependent.  Our only hope is early detection of illnesses sure to happen.  
Dementia is another issue all together.  It is all to familiar and there appears to be no stopping the progression once it starts.  That holds true for medications at least.  Early testing results in a longer period to worry about the future.  Most people believe it is genetics and bad luck.  Dean Ornish, MD recently published a randomized controlled trial showing improvement in early dementia symptoms and biomarkers using a plant based diet along with exercise and stress management.  This preliminary study is wonderful news to support a basic whole foods plant based diet.  No gimmicks or need for specialized foods.  No fancy exercise protocols.  Just basic good nutrition and movement with attention to mindfulness.  
The bottom line is the more effort you make, the better the results.  Consistency is key just like in any other lifestyle change.  That is the hard part because so many people are looking for a quick fix that requires no changes on their part.  However, if you would like to take control of your healthspan, check out our website.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 479: Reversing Dementia Through Plant Based Nutrition

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. 
Can you bank longevity? What about fitness?  Improving fitness at any age will help to increase your health span which may translate into more time living an active and independent life.  This is not just for seniors because heart muscle starts to deteriorate in the early forties along with heart function.  Blood vessels stiffness while you are eating at your favorite fast food restaurant. 
More worrisome news about GLp-1 agonists and the ketogenic diet.  Oh and don't believe your keto doctor if he tells you he is getting adequate fiber. 
Finally, thank you to my 90 year old patients.  You have always been the most loyal and humble group of people I have had the pleasure to learn from.  As a song once said human kindness is overflowing.  I think it might rain today.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast: Banking Health For the Future

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. 
We age and our cells age.  About every three months our red blood cells turn over for example.  What happens to the old cells? How do we eliminate them?  Our immune system plays a vital role in eliminating old cells or senescent cells.  Unfortunately, our immune system also slows down so we start to accumulate these "zombie" senescent cells.  This month Nature magazine discusses new drugs and repurposed drugs to eliminate these cells.  However, these medications also have side effects and substantial costs.  Since we all age, should everyone start these medications or do we wait until there is a problem like diabetes, Alzheimers, or vascular disease?  Another alternative might be to decrease the amount of zombie cells in the first place or protect our immune system so it functions longer.  
You guest it.  Nutrition and exercise play a key role as an alternative to decrease zombie cell accumulation.  
Thanks for listening.  
If you want help preventing zombie cell accumulation or to enhance your health span, check out our website at doctordulaney.com

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 477: Drugs or Nutrition to Clear Senescent Cells

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  
I was fortunate to go to Blue Ridge and Blairsville Georgia this past weekend to toe the line at the Cruel Jewel 50 mile ultra race.  The ultra running community are my people.  Tenacious, positive, and tremendous athletes all humble at the same time.  It did not goes as I would have wished for, but it did go for how I was trained.  I got to see where I was at a fitness level and experience some of the most beautiful and peaceful forests.  That area crosses the Appalachian trail.   People on the trail give other hikers trail names.  I had a trail angel this weekend.  I gave him the name of Russ Angel because of time he gave to rescue me and others after we pulled the white flag.  I hope you enjoy my trail tails.  It was a great weekend despite coming up short.
Ultra running and life are so much alike.  You need a plan and you need to work the plan.  When it does not work, you need to adjust the plan.  The bottom line is forward progress.  Maybe not that day, but the next day it is time to get back on the journey whether it is trail or health.  If you would like some help with your health journey, visit our website to fine out how you can join our practice. 
Thank you to Russ Marlowe and Sandy Geisel for your support.  Shout out to Rich and Tony and the swanky red pick-up.  Thank you to Sarah Snyder and her staff as the race director.  Like Sarah says, poor decisions make for better stories.  She is most famous for saying, try not to be an asshole.  Words to live by.  Thank you.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 276: Cruel Jewel 50 was Cruel to Me

Welcome ! and Thank you for listening. 
Are you planning for your decline or planning your next adventure?  That adventure might mean a great day at the beach with your grandchildren or other adventures that require you to be active and mobile.  
Today's podcast will give you some insight on things that may help or hinder those plans.  Why be secluded to the sidelines when you could be an active participant in life? 
In the Journal of Nature on May 2, 2024 there was an article discussing the most basic molecular changes with endurance training that affects a multitude of processes that have the potential to impact the health of the immune system, and organs such as the heart, kidneys, colon, brain and liver.  There were positive changes at the genetic level with endurance training of just 8 weeks. What are you waiting for? That was not the case with omega 3 supplements or a fat pad around the heart.  
Enjoy the episode and then plan for an active future.  Need more guidance, then check our our website to see how we can guide you to your next adventure. 
Thank you for listening.
