  • #980: MM- Allergies May Decrease Risk of Appendicitis

    Do you have allergies? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. Nearly one in twenty people in the United States develop appendicitis. This usually happens when the appendix becomes blocked. You may be wondering what this has to do with allergies. Well, a new study out of Lund University and Skåne University Hospital in Sweden has linked having allergies to a lower risk of complicated appendicitis. The children in the study had pollen and animal fur allergies. Scientists still aren't sure why they have a lowered risk, but they think it may have something to do with the immune system. Talk to your doctor if you experience pain in your right lower abdomen, a fever, and nausea or vomiting. These could be symptoms of appendicitis and can become life threatening. This Stay Young Medical Minute is brought to you by Executive Medicine of Texas, a leader in preventative and proactive medicine.

    Show Topic: Using Food As Your Medicine with Chef Deb

    Co-Hosts: Judy Gaman, Walter Gaman, Mark Anderson

    Guest: Chef Deb Cantrell

    Segment 1:

    Boy do we have the show for you today. It applies to everyone because we all have to eat. What we eat can either help you or harm you, so we brought in Chef Deb Cantrell from Savor Culinary Services for a whole hour of nutrition that tastes good and serves a purpose all at the same time.

    • Chef Deb – What made you, a physical therapist, change course and become a chef?
    • Why nutrition is such an important component to overall health?
    • What are the commonalities among all diets?
    • Why fad diets don't work
    • The fads the doctors have to laugh at – what were people thinking?

    DOC SHOCK

    We have long had tumor marker blood tests, but now there may be a new way to detect those cells. I'm talking about the cells that break off from a tumor and float through the blood stream. Researchers out of Stanford University School of Medicine have developed a magnetic wire that attracts these little cells and allows for tumor identification. The research hasn't yet been tried in humans, but it seems to work well in mice. The key is to magnetize the tumor cells with nanoparticles. If they can find a way to do this through a FDA process, the wire may be able to detect the tumor cells more effectively and accurately.

  • #978: MM- The Dangers of Filter Apps

    Are you or your children obsessed with apps like Snapchat? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. Body dysmorphic disorder affects nearly one in fifty people. It's considered a mental disorder on the obsessive-compulsive scale. People who struggle with body dysmorphia focus heavily on little or nonexistent physical flaws. This often leads to surgically altering their appearance. According to new research, apps like Snapchat are actually making the condition worse. Fifty-five percent of plastic surgeons in 2017 stated that their patients were either wanting to "better their selfies" or to look they do in filters on Snapchat. This is type of behavior has coined the new term "Snapchat Dysmorphia". Talk to a doctor if you believe you or a loved one is struggling with body dysmorphia.

  • #977: MM- Everything You Need to Know About Salmonella

    Time to talk Salmonella. This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. No, I am not referring to the "fish". Salmonella is a bacteria found in raw and undercooked poultry, ground beef, and eggs. When consumed, symptoms of salmonellosis usually begin within twelve to seventy-two hours. Persons exposed may develop abdominal cramps, diarrhea, and fever. These symptoms can last anywhere between four and seven days. Children under five are at the highest risk. The best way to prevent Salmonella infection is to cook meat and eggs thoroughly and to wash your hands and counter surfaces frequently while cooking. Call your doctor if you are experiencing signs of salmonellosis and keep track of foods that are being recalled by the CDC for salmonella.

  • #976: MM- Vegan Sources of Calcium

    If you are vegan or lactose intolerant, you may want to listen up. This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. Calcium is essential for maintaining overall health. Foods that contain dairy tend to be full of calcium but are a no-go for vegans and those with a lactose intolerance. Luckily, there are plenty of other healthy options that can help you reach your daily calcium goal of 1,000 milligrams. You heard right, if you are nineteen to fifty years old it is recommended that you consume 1,000 milligrams of calcium a day. Chia seeds, almonds, white beans, tofu, edamame, sweet potatoes, arugula, and okra are full of calcium and are also extremely healthy. Be sure to talk to your doctor if you believe you are not consuming enough calcium.

  • #975: MM- Why Women Need Testosterone

    Do you think men are the only ones that need to worry about testosterone? Think again. This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. Women secrete testosterone through the adrenal glands and ovaries. Unlike men, who need high amounts of testosterone, women only need about 6 percent of what men need. But, having too little can cause a lot of issues, such as: weight gain, muscle weakness, vaginal dryness, fatigue, reduced sex drive, and fertility issues. Unfortunately, these are all common symptoms of other health problems. Testosterone can also decrease as menopause approaches. It is important to have your hormones checked yearly at your annual physical exam and to talk to your doctor if you are experiencing symptoms of low testosterone.

  • #974: MM- Cell Phones May Cause Memory Development Problems in Youth

    It's time to put your cell phone down! This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. A new study from The Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute has found a link between cell phone use and memory development issues. This is believed to be caused by the electromagnetic fields that cellular devices pro-ject. The study consisted of 700 swiss adolescents and focused on the effects of the fields when a cell phone is being held up to the ear. The part of the brain that controls the development of figural memory is located on the right side of the brain. The researchers found that this area was affected when people held their phone to the right side of their head to talk. It may be time to bust out the old headphones and Bluetooth ear pieces.

    Okay, I've said it before and I will say it again—your gut microbiome affects everything! A recent study out of University of Virginia School of Medicine suggests that a mother's microbiome is key to the neurological development of their baby. They have linked an UNHEALTHY gut microbiome to autism and other neurological disorders. Crazy right? Well, not really. Your microbiome affects your immune system, which in turn affects the development of your unborn offspring's immune system. It is suggested that expectant mothers take probiotics to prevent an unhealthy microbiome. A healthy mom equals a healthy baby.

  • #682: MM- The Non-Productive Corporate Lunch

    Is your company killing productivity at lunch? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. Many companies bring in lunch for their employees either on a regular basis or as a treat. The options they choose could mean the difference between a productive day or a total loss. Choosing foods that are fresh and contain few carbohydrates is best. Meats are good as other sources of protein,, but when it comes to desert, skip the cakes and sweet treats. Instead opt for things like fresh fruit or sorbet. Heavy meals make you tired and slow down cognition while your body sends everything it has to help aid in digestion. The lunch options you chose could affect important decisions, costing you time and money in the future. Think of your employees as the gears in your company and the food they eat as the oil that keeps them moving. Remember, everyone wants a well-oiled machine so choose food wisely.
