Who says you can't successfully run two businesses at once? Not today's guest, Jordan Clark.  A hard charging corporate executive who found himself out on the road (as always). But stranded in his hotel down by the beach with an afternoon to kill. 

He spots a Pedego Electric Bike in his hotel lobby and on a whim decides to rent one and try riding a bit (not easy with his then 330 pound frame). And eureka!  He gets his own eBike epiphany and decides to buy a few for fun. Only to end up buying the whole store in Summerlin, NV and two more in Henderson and Lake Las Vegas. After dropping 80 pounds along the way from his new found passion for riding.

All while continuing to run his own corporate meeting business from his base in Las Vegas. 

Showing once again what can happen when people simply say "Hello Fun" and start pedaling along on a Pedego. And follow the path driving more and more entrepreneurs and enthusiasts to the eBike Revolution.

As much as modern technology and science tries to alleviate human suffering, the world has been plagued by numerous health problems afflicting the lives of people. Due to COVID-19, the rate of mortality increased resulting in widespread medical and economic challenges. Our body has interferon proteins that are part of the natural defenses. They work by interfering with the virus to enter the body by activating the body’s immune system. This is one of the first line of defense the human body has when it gets infected with COVID-19 but unfortunately, this is not enough. According to WHO, as of November 2021, there have been approximately 200 million confirmed cases of COVID-19. For COVID-19 medications, Remdesivir is one of the few drugs approved by the FDA to treat COVID-19 yet researchers are still evaluating which drug works best to fight the global pandemic.In this episode, Dr. Dung Trinh is joined by Dr. Ajay Gupta, an inventor and innovator who has investigated Ramatroban, new immunotherapy with potential treatment for COVID-19. Though still under development, early phase clinical trials and studies have been promising. Learn more of the potential of this medication on Episode 9!Memorable Quotes:When there’s a new drug, it takes a lot of clinical trials to ensure that the drug is not just going to be effective but more importantly, it is going to be safe. - Dr. Ajay GuptaNew medications for Covid have to undergo multiple phases of clinical trials but there isn’t always funding for these needed studies. - Dr. Dung TrinhOther Resources:[email protected] - Dr Ajay GuptaImportant Points:The severity of illness from COVID-19 infection depends on how the body reacts to the virus.As humans age, we produce more Prostaglandin d2 (PGD2). When infected with a virus, the production of PGD2 increases further and suppresses interferons - one of the first immune responder of the body.About the Guests:Ajay Gupta, MD is an inventor who currently develops Ramatroban, a PGD2-CRTH2 antagonist, immunotherapy for COVID-19. He is a nephrologist and basic and clinical scientist, the Section Head of Pediatric Epilepsy at Cleveland Clinic, currently the Clinical Professor of Medicine at University of California, Irvine - College of Medicine, and President and Chief Scientific Officer of KARE Biosciences, About the Host:Dung Trinh, MD is the Chief Medical Officer of Irvine Clinical Research, medical missionary with TongueOut Medical Missions, and holds leadership positions with multiple health care organizations in Orange County. He is a keynote speaker, best-selling author, and Host of “Health Talks with Dr. Trinh” which can be heard weekly on OC Talk Radio.Connect with Dr. TrinhFacebookLinkedIn
