  • Concerning

    Listened to a great episode by a qualified PhD. The next one was by a person with qualifications in tech, has a son with Autism but was given a platform as an expert on the causes of Autism. Saying Autism is triggered by such things as toxins and has no genetic link and other unscientific claims.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What a 78-Year-Old Doctor Takes for Hormones, Energy and Longevity - Dr. Lindsey Berkson
Q: How can they do their own research to see if a company has integrity, if the product is safe, has what's in it and is efficacious?
Berkson recommends contacting a company manager to ask whether it conducts regular analyses, can provide recent test results and stops selling batches found to be contaminated.
What a 78-Year-Old Doctor Takes for Hormones, Energy and Longevity - Dr. Lindsey Berkson
Q: But what are the foundations that somebody should be doing in order to be able to have a healthy detox system in their body?
Berkson says detoxification involves enzymes throughout the body and recommends reducing chemical exposure while supporting detoxification. She suggests removing shoes indoors, using water filters and choosing personal-care products with fewer chemicals.
Increase Bone Density 8% In 1 Year? Or Is DEXA Flawed? - Sandra Iuliano
Q: How much calcium is useful from supplements if someone already gets calcium from food?
Iuliano says supplementation can help bring total intake to an appropriate level when dietary intake is low, but additional calcium is unlikely to make a difference when food already provides enough.
Increase Bone Density 8% In 1 Year? Or Is DEXA Flawed? - Sandra Iuliano
Q: Can the findings from a study of older adults in residential care be applied to menopausal women?
Iuliano says the study focused on older adults because their fracture risk is much higher, and people with low calcium intake may benefit more than those whose intake is already adequate. She stresses that calcium is only one part of fracture prevention alongside exercise, balance and other risk factors.
Why Meditation Fails For Some And What Works Better - Jim Poole
Q: Tell me what you think about the difference between music and the NuCalm approach and why it matters for someone struggling with meditation.
Music can affect mood in the moment, but NuCalm aims to downregulate brain activity by directly modulating brainwaves, which can lead to deeper, more consistent relaxation and improved sleep without relying on exposure to music alone.
