-Shared stories from the hosts

MUSIC FOR DOC SHOCK (JIM)

THAT MUSIC MEANS IT'S TIME FOR DOC SHOC. A TIME WHEN WE FIND SOMETHING SHOCKING IN THE NEWS OR WE'RE SHOCKED IT MADE THE NEWS.

Speaking of stress. Are you shrinking your brain? Turns out, high levels of stress can shrink your brain. That's because stress causes the body to secrete a hormone called cortisol. High levels of cortisol have been linked to heart disease, depression, hypertension, and obesity. It can also lead to decreased grey matter in the brain. If you are overstressed, get moving. Even a quick walk around the block can give your mind the clarity it needs to sort through stressors. It's also important to sleep and eat well. Both will give you the physical energy your body needs to fight off rising cortisol levels. Talk to your doctor if you are worried about your stress levels.

• How can we tell other people's feelings from our own so that we don't take on negativity that doesn't belong to us?

Show Topic: "The Psychology of Good Health with Ronald Smith"

Co-Hosts: Judy Gaman, Mark Anderson

Guest: Professor Ronald Smith

Segment 1:

• An important part of taking ownership of your own health is to stop playing the victim card. (open discussion)
• How psychology affects your health

DOC SHOCK

Suicide rates are on the rise. The World Health Organization estimates that over 800,000 people commit suicide yearly. It is also the second leading cause of death in people ages 15 to 29. New research out of University of Utah suggests that genetics may play a role in suicide risk. Researchers were able to examine the genetics of 1,300 DNA samples of people who lost their lives to suicide. Using this information, they were able to localize four genetic variants and 207 genes that influence suicide risk. This research could pave the way for better treatment options for suicidal thoughts and tendencies. Talk to your doctor if you or a loved one are battling suicidal thoughts. More info

Coming up, our special guest Ronald Smith.

Segment 2:

Today's focus is on taking ownership on your own health. Our special guest, Ronald Smith will be joining us shortly.

Immortal minute

Ron is an experienced sociology professor with a demonstrated history of working in the higher education industry. He is skilled in student development, research, and adult education. He was recently a political analyst on mid-term election night for ABC affiliate KAVU-TV in Victoria, TX.

-It seems like we are taught from an early age to either rise above challenges or stay a victim. Do you think family life can play a role in this?

-How can playing the "blame game" or "poor me" card become dangerous?

-Do you believe that social media can exacerbate the victim mentality mindset?

Segment 3:

We have Professor Ronald Smith on our show today discussing the psychology of good health and wellness.

-What are some ways our listeners can break free from a victim mentality mindset?

-Tell us about a time you faced major challenges and circumstances. What was the key to your success?

In 2013, I was homeless sleeping out of my truck. I was looking for full-time work as a college professor working multiple jobs part-time with little income. It was a low point in my life. However, I continued to stay positive although I felt miserable mostly and my circumstances started to change.

I eventually moved back into an apartment and shortly after I received a full-time teaching job in upstate New York, which I ultimately parlayed into a full-time teaching job back home in Texas closer to family.

So, in a few years I went from basically being homeless to having a full-time professor job, being on television as a political commentator and doing a radio show with prominent figures. If I would have wallowed in my misfortunes and maintained a (victim mentality) then perhaps I wouldn't have had the motivation to continue through with reaching my goals.

Segment 4:

Each day I bring you one new tip that will help you stay young and vibrant. I heard a comment over the holidays that really struck me. One of my family members said brown sugar was healthier than regular white sugar. Well, Sugar that's the color of dirt doesn't make it more "natural" or healthier than its white counterpart. The color comes from a common residual sticky syrup, called molasses. Brown sugar retains some of that molasses. In fact, brown sugar is mostly white sugar with some molasses — so refining it further would give you white table sugar. While molasses contains some vitamins and minerals like potassium and magnesium, there is not enough in your standard brown sugar packet that should make you reach for it if you're trying to eat healthier. As far as your body is concerned, white and brown sugar are one-in-the-same.We want to empower you with as much health information as possible.

Did you know There's no evidence that going outside with wet hair when it's freezing will make you sick provided you avoid hypothermia. But there is a scientifically sound explanation for why people catch more colds in winter: We spend more time in close quarters indoors, it is more likely that we'll cross paths with a cold-causing virus spread from another person during the winter.

Each day I bring you one new tip that will help you stay young and vibrant. Will that juice cleanse combat all those holiday indulgences? Well, not really. Your body naturally removes harmful chemicals through the liver, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract — there's nothing about juice that will hurry that process along. Juicing mainly just removes digestion-aiding fiber from fruits and vegetables. Also consider that many sugary fruit juices are as bad for you as sodas. While some juices are just fine, they don't provide anything that you wouldn't get by eating the whole components instead. We want to empower you with as much health information as possible.

Each day I bring you one new tip that will help you stay young and vibrant. You know that I am always bringing you newest information and the latest research, but I have to say, I am highly offended by this study. According to Lancaster University, they found a significant difference in iphone users vs android users, stating that Android users are more honest. Seriously? iphone users are apparently younger, twice as likely to be women and more extroverted. Android users tend to be older, male, more honest, and more agreeable. I guess they're right on the agreeable thing. I have an iphone and I simply think this study is flawed. More Info!

Each day I bring you one new tip that will help you stay young and vibrant. This is a fascinating study out of Queen Mary in London. We all know men and women see the world differently, but now we know why women tend to clue into facial expressions a little bit more. Have you ever heard a woman say, " Did you see the way they looked at me?" and then her husband reply, "No. I didn't see that at all." Well, maybe they're both telling the truth. It turns out that women tend to look at people first in the left eye and then explore the entire face, spending much more time taking in the details, while men take much less time to observe before moving on. The study tracked the eye movements of 500 participants of all different nationalities and the distinction was clear, there are gender differences in the way we see the world, or at least the way we see each other!

Each day I bring you one new tip that will help you stay young and vibrant. Have you ever heard the old wives' tale "starve a fever, feed a cold" well some research from the Indiana school of medicine suggest that this is actually a myth. Limiting your caloric consumption may actually hurt your immune system more than helping it — it would certainly be a bad idea to not eat during the six- to eight-day duration of a cold. You need to give your body nutrients and healthy foods packed with vitamins to insulate your immune system to fight off the fever causing illness or infection. Doctors in Indiana actually say to go ahead and eat if you can, and make healthy and meaningful food choices especially during this time. They also reminded us to make sure to drink plenty of fluids.We want to empower you with as much health information as possible.
