  • #930 Mirror, Mirror-Why Are You Looking Older After All?

    Take a look in the mirror. Are you looking older than you used to? Take a look at your diet--sugar and caffeine could be adding wrinkles. Flying can increase dehydration and if you have a window seat, you could be exposed to more radiation. Make sure you are getting enough sleep. There really is such a thing as beauty sleep.

  • #928 Vitamins, Minerals, and Other Supplements and What You Need to Know

    Show Topic: Vitamins, Minerals, and Other Supplements and What You Need to Know

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

    Guest: None

    Segment 1:

    We are often asked about supplements so we thought we'd do a whole show devoted to vitamins, minerals, and other supplements.

    • Difference between a vitamin and a mineral:

    Vitamins - any of a group of organic compounds that are essential for normal growth and nutrition and are required in small quantities in the diet because they cannot be synthesized by the body.

    Minerals- a solid inorganic substance of natural occurrence

    • Fat-soluble vs water-soluble

    Fat-soluble vitamins are stored in the fatty tissues of the body and the liver. Vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble. These are easier to store than water-soluble vitamins, and they can stay in the body as reserves for days, and sometimes months. Absorbed through the intestinal tract with the help of fats, or lipids.

    Water-soluble vitamins do not stay in the body for long. The body cannot store them. Excreted through the urine. Water-soluble vitamins need to be replaced more often than fat-soluble ones.

    Vitamin C and all the B vitamins are water soluble.

    • Why doesn't our food contain enough vitamins and minerals?
    • Not all vitamins are created equal

    Store-brand vs pharmaceutical grade

    Pharmaceutical Grade products must exceed 99% purity (natural sources) and contain no binders, fillers, excipients, dyes, or unknown substances. Fewer than 3% of the products on the market are pharmaceutical grade.

    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.

    New research from the University of Colorado at Boulder shows that older blood vessels can be repaired in 6 to 8 weeks with antioxidants specifically targeting mitochondria. The study shows that it can take anywhere from 15 to 20 years of aging off, making the blood vessels appear and function like much younger vessels. The study was published in the American Heart Association journal Hypertension and once again shows that pharmaceutical-grade supplements could be key in preventing heart disease. In the study, participants took MitoQ, a form of Coenzyme Q that has been modified to cling to the inside of mitochondria inside cells.

  • #613: The Best Time of Year to Schedule a Surgery

    After looking at millions of procedures over several years, researchers show that January is the best time to have anything done, because it produces the least amount of complications. It also shows that August is the WORST time to have anything done, because it produces the most complications. Who knows why these facts are true, but trust us they are!

  • #923 Coronary Artery Disease

    Show Topic: Coronary Artery Disease

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

    Guest: None

    Segment 1:

    We want you to have good heart health so, today's show is all about coronary artery disease

    • Definition of Coronary Artery Disease (often called Heart Disease): Arteries should be elastic and smooth. Overtime they can become rigid and stiff. This keeps oxygen from reaching parts of the heart
    • What is Plaque? fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances that can stick to the lining of the arteries
    • What happens when Plaque ruptures? Heart attack and even sudden death
    • Difference between a heart attack and a stroke. Heart attack affects the heart and stroke affects the brain.
    • Why an aspirin helps to prevent both a stroke and a heart attack

    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.

    This is so counter intuitive. With all the talk we do on the gut microbiome, new research out of Tufts that was published in the journal Experimental Biology shows that wiping out the gut microbiome completely may be exactly what heart failure patients need. Now, this study was done on mice, but it looks promising. The science behind using a broad spectrum antibiotic for 5 weeks to suppress the immune system lies in the fact that heart failure patients see an increase in T-cells that actually cause the heart to enlarge. By wiping out the body's natural ability to heal through swelling and scar tissue, the heart is preserved. Shockingly, the mice who were treated made almost a complete recovery from heart failure. More research is needed, but this is certainly fascinating and may result in a complete re-think of how cardiologists treat heart failure.
