Food Addiction, the Problem and the Solution
Weight Gain and African American Food Culture: Tony W. Reflects on His Journey
"So tell me about what happened when you really first realized that, you know, if your weight went up to 464, 381 when you got into BLE, I mean, you started, you were using food, you weighed a lot more than your body was supposed to weigh. So when did you really see that happening? Well, I first started putting on weight when I was a teenager. I worked at Baskin -Robbins and they allowed you to eat anything you wanted while you were working there, which was, you know, and I was smoking weed at the time. So, you know, put those together and guess what, you know, just like a balloon, I just, you know, and so, but it really was the whole fast food culture that we live in. That's the way I ate. And growing up, I should mention growing up, my mom was a great cook, but then we had five, I had four brothers and, you know, on Sundays, we had a big dinner after church and it was, you know, it's fried chicken, it's macaroni and cheese, collard greens, rolls. I mean, and my dad's plate would look like, you know, the Devil's Tower of Wyoming in Close Encounters, I mean, where they had that big, huge mound and that's where I learned, you know, that's what you do, you, you know, you just grub out, pig out and it's not frowned upon. But anyway, so I was able, as a child, I was able to, like you say, I was active and so I was able to keep my weight down. Once I became late teens, they really started to catch up to me. But it really wasn't until later on is when I was an adult that I really started to have a, you know, I started putting on serious, you know, hundreds of pounds overweight. Yeah, you're, I'll tell the listeners, you are an African American man and you've talked about the culture in the African American community around food, right? Right, right, absolutely. So you have so many fried foods and those kinds of things and it's really horrible when you think about it because the, and this is not just to African Americans, that other people have food in their cultures that are part of their, it's a part of your culture, it's a part of who you are and you're expected to partake in it and yet it's the thing that was killing me. It's the thing that was killing me. Talk about your health problems that happened when you were 464, 381. When you first began BLE, what kind of health problems did you have associated with the obesity? Well, for a number of years I was fine, you know, and then I remember I was at a concert and I had to keep going to the bathroom and I was really thirsty and I knew what that meant because my mom had diabetes and so that was really the first time I had any kind of health problem and then it kind of spiraled and this is this is at my highest weight around about 464 pounds and so I started to have neuropathy in my feet. I started to have, you know, the joint pain high cholesterol, you know, the shot. It was just everything. It was just a big spiral. Then I started to have hernias. I had five hernia surgeries in one year. I mean, I was contemplating the gastric bypass at one point but I opted not to do that, which I'm thankful for now, you know, but it really was a thing of me gradually gaining weight and then getting to the point where there were so many things that I saw were going to happen that if I didn't take some action and then a friend of mine, a friend of mine who was younger than me and weighed less than me had a stroke and I saw then I had a moment of clarity then that's going to be me.

A highlight from Q & A on Headaches, Sourdough Bread, Ozempic for Weight Loss, and Varicose Veins
"Did you know that as you age, your natural production of collagen declines? This results in fine lines and wrinkles, joint pain, dark circles under your eyes, and more. You see, collagen is like the glue that holds your body together, and luckily, there's an easy way to feed your body additional collagen. It's bone broth. Studies show consuming bone broth protein can boost metabolism, support gut health and digestion, reduce cellulite formation, can help grow healthy skin and nails, support joints and more. But if you've ever made bone broth, you know it's time -consuming, and who really has the time to simmer bones for 48 hours? That's why I like to use bone broth protein powder. Simply mix a scoop with hot water, add to a smoothie or even a baked dish, and reap all the benefits of collagen -rich protein in just 30 seconds a day. While most companies use the hides or the skin of the animal, which are less nutrient -dense than the bones, I always prefer using bones, and that's why I love Paleo Valley bone broth protein because they use 100 % grass -fed beef bones from cows that are never fed GMO grains or any grains for that matter. They even test for over 40 pesticides to ensure this is the purest bone broth protein on the market. These bones are slow -simmered to extract as much collagen protein as possible. They don't use any chemicals or solvents, just good old -fashioned bone broth that's then gently powdered. Now when we think about bone broth, again, we think about the protein collagen, and there's several key amino acids in there, including glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline, and those help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and help reduce cellulite. They're also critical for anti -aging as they help regenerate bones and help muscle and support heart health. Studies have shown eating bone broth soup on a regular basis can increase fullness, reduce your calorie intake, and lead to weight loss over time, and the amino acid glycine is really important for good sleep. In fact, a 3 -gram dose of glycine improves sleep by lowering body temperature and boosting serotonin levels, which is a key precursor to melatonin, and it does that without causing daytime drowsiness. Each serving of 100 % grass -fed beef bone broth protein contains 15 grams of collagen protein and 3 .4 grams of glycine, so you get that critical amount.

So again, if you're dealing with any sort of chronic health condition, definitely reach out to Dr. Yvonne, and how do they do that, Dr. Yvonne? What's the best way to reach out to you? Well, there are many ways, but one way is to go to your website, drjockers .com, and you can look for long -distance coaching and go there and find my name, click, and then you can submit your application, or you can just directly email me at dr, i, v, o, n, n, e, at drjockers .com. Wonderful. Easy. Yep, easy, simple. Yes. All right, and you're working with a number of complex cases all around the world, and so definitely reach out to Dr. Yvonne. If you're looking for a great health coach and she'd be happy to walk you through really the process that it takes and go through that with you guys. And so with that said, let's jump into some of these questions, Dr. Yvonne. Thank you so much, Dr. Jockers, for that wonderful introduction. So yes, let's start with a question posed by John on Instagram. He says, my wife seems to get headaches whenever she gets stressed or doesn't sleep her best. Are there any nutrients that she is missing or that may help her? This is a great question. So your wife, John, is getting headaches when she's having trouble sleeping or when she's stressed, and you're wondering about what nutrients are involved in headaches. Well, when it comes to headaches, there are certain nutrients that are top of mind. Number one would be magnesium. Magnesium is to the body what oil is to a car, meaning the more that we use our body, the more stressed we are, the more we're using up magnesium. We need a lot of magnesium on a regular basis. It helps calm our neurotransmitters, helps balance our excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters. It helps calm and stabilize our blood sugar, our adrenal hormones. It helps calm and relax those. I think of magnesium like an adaptogen. We hear about adaptogens when it comes to herbs like ashwagandha. An adaptogen acts kind of like a thermostat. So if it's 80 degrees outside and you want it 70 in your house, the air conditioning comes on to bring the cool air in, to bring it down to 70. If it's 40 degrees outside and you want it 70, the heat will come on. That's kind of what magnesium does. It's a great balancer. It's the ultimate balancer when it comes to nutrients. And so that is the number one nutrient that I see associated with headaches. Another one is dehydration in general and a loss of electrolytes. Magnesium would be one of those electrolytes, but just drinking enough water on a regular basis. A lot of times people have headaches because they haven't been consuming enough water, and particularly water and salt. So getting a little bit of salt could be some sort of good quality sea salt or like Celtic salt, pink Himalayan salt, something along those lines, a little bit of salt and some water. A lot of times people feel a lot better. A lot of times like for me, for example, I know when I was dealing with a lot of health issues in my early 20s, I craved pickle brine, pickle brine. So what is that? It's a lot of salt and water. And so I had adrenal hypo function. So my body really needed extra salt and I would get headaches. I would get dizzy at times. I'd have very low blood pressure. And when I would drink the pickle brine or just kind of a salted water, I felt so much better. My energy came back. I had less head, you know, the headache went away, felt significantly better. So that's another really common one. And then outside of that, I want to think about certain B vitamins. In fact, we know that headaches can be associated with higher levels of homocysteine, which is an inflammatory protein in the bloodstream. And so basically homocysteine is part of the glutathione production cycle or the methylation cycle. And so it's taken from an amino acid. Methionine gets metabolized and should result in the production of SAMe as well as glutathione. But we also produce glutathione or master antioxidant, but we also produce homocysteine in that process. Now, normally, again, it gets converted. But for some people, they're deficient in certain nutrients, magnesium being one of them, as well as in particular B12, vitamin B6 and folate all play a role in that conversion process of homocysteine into glutathione and SAMe. And so when we are deficient there and some of these B vitamins, homocysteine goes up.

Food Addiction, the Problem and the Solution
From Hopelessness to Food Addiction Recovery With Lisa K.
"I'm going to read one of your quotes, which is really, really powerful, that talks about the hopelessness and desperation and powerlessness, I would say. So I'll read this and let you talk about it. It was a journal entry. It said, quote, I was recently reading through my past journals and I want to read from my journal, January 1, 2021, the day before my consultation with Shift. I can barely look at myself in the mirror. It disgusts me. I see myself as fat and ugly. Food has become everything to me. I binge six plus times a day on fast food, chocolate, pasta, cheese, sauces. I eat food off of other people's plates out of the trash. I see many negative consequences of my eating habits, mainly gaining weight, disgust at myself, difficulty with sex, looking and feeling like a pig at a buffet, numerous body pains, breathing difficulties. I can't walk more than a few feet and I need to take several breaks walking up one flight of stairs in the house. I can't put on my own shoes and my clothes don't fit. Food makes me loathe myself. Food is killing me. My body and soul are both dying very quickly. Not even my program is working. So is there any hope at all? I don't think so. I'm just going to die. That's what my new year will be, my death. That was the day before you consulted with the Shift folks, recovery. We'll talk about that. But talk about where you were January 1, 2021 and what was going on. Yeah, I had tried everything up until that point to lose weight. That was my goal. I just want to various pay -and -weigh programs. I tried various diets that were out there, bizarre things. There was one, eat right for your type, where you did your blood type and you figured out what foods you could eat or not eat. That was a disaster. I think I gained 20 pounds in a month on that one. But it was horrible and life was horrible. I was miserable, absolutely miserable. And I'm not really wanting to live anymore. I'm really feeling like there's nothing I could do here that's going to make a difference. Nothing's going to help me. I tried. I went to a food treatment program a couple years earlier, about three years earlier. I did great there for the week and for a few months afterwards. But there was no aftercare. I would just go out to a 12 -step group and I did that. I was in 12 steps. I gained weight about 100 pounds being in a 12 -step program. I knew I needed something more, but didn't know what that could possibly be. Yeah. You got the click, I would call it, when you talked to shift and you heard what might be possible. It sounds like that was your bottom, if I could make that leap, that that was a bottom where you thought you're going to die from this because you have no real solution on how to get out of it. And that's where I got. I got to the point where I don't want to live like this. I'm going to die. I'm slowly killing myself because of the 70 pounds, the high blood pressure, the diabetes, couldn't walk without getting out of breath. And so that was a bottom for me. So this you're killing yourself with food. And I was just like, yeah, whatever. Okay, sure. I can't stop, so too bad. It wasn't until I had a doctor who told me I was committing suicide and the suicide war just really hit me. And that was two months before that January 1st day. And I got so angry, I stormed out of the guy's office because I was not committing suicide. And then that morning, I sat there thinking, you know, I'm not going to kill myself. I'm not going to commit suicide, but if God took me tonight, that would be just fine with me. That scared me. And so then the next morning, I was on Facebook looking at family pictures from Christmas. And up pops the shift recovery by acorn advertisement on my feed, which again, I'm barely on Facebook, and I don't search for food addiction treatment. And I don't search for weight loss programs or anything else on Facebook. And here it pops up. And I'm like, huh. So I talked to my husband, and I asked him if he'd be with me. And we did a consult with shift and the next day. And I really thought for me, that was intervention by God. I could not have found shift if I wanted to try to find them. God just put it in my place. And I don't even think I was in the space to look for a food addiction treatment program at that point. Like I just was totally discouraged and in despair

Meet Sailee: Multitalented Healer and Christine's New Teacher
"Now I am doing an interview with Saylee, who is also going to be my new teacher who does many different healing modalities to help you. So she's going to be doing some weekly classes. So I also wanted to just introduce you to her, and she's also going to be at the upcoming Psychic Healing Fair, October 20th through the 23rd. If you want to find out more about that, just go ahead and visit my website, trustedpsychicadvisor .com, and you can go to the event page. Saylee, are you here? Yes, I am. Hi, Saylee. How are you today? I'm doing great. How are you? I'm good. I just want to thank you so much for being here and doing this podcast with me. Can you please tell me the different types of services that you offer? Yeah. So I offer individual services one -on -one as well as couple services, and I also offer group workshops. And I work with different modalities. So I do intuitive life coaching for people going through any kind of issues, life issues. And I also do sound healing therapy. I also practice vibrational healing therapy. I also practice energy healing. And to every client, I also offer aromatherapy suggestions and color therapy suggestions. So, yeah. That sounds wonderful. So how long have you been doing this? So I was a techie before, so I was working in corporate, but then I was feeling like, this is not something for me. It's not my calling. And I really wanted to work with people, helping people, healing people. So I transitioned to life coaching after that about 10 years ago. And then I gave it a more spiritual approach. So it was more of an intuitive life coaching, empowering people. Then I added energy healing to it. Then after I added music therapy, I added sound healing and vibrational therapy. So it's like, it's a work in progress. But yeah, I started about 10 years ago. So 10 years is a good long time. I also know that you do chakra balancing and alignment. Okay. Can you please tell me how these types of healing helps people and what kind of issues are people facing in their lives and what type of services are best for example, like someone that's going love or a breakup or something like that? Yeah. So the way I work with people is I have all these tools with me, right? The intuitive life coaching and sound healing and vibration and energy. So for every client, I bring all of these tools together and create like a customized solution. So it's not like somebody came to me for sound healing, then I will not offer anything else. I will not give them any life advice, life coaching advice, or I won't use any, I won't tune their chakras. It's not like that. So I just use combination of all these modalities with whatever issues that they have. And people come to me with health issues like heart issues, diabetes, or they have some chronic pain, cancer treatment is going on, fertility issues, any kind of health issue, basically sciatica. That's wonderful. Yeah. Yeah. So that is how the chakras come into place because every organ in our body is controlled by one of these seven chakras that we have in our bodies. So that, so basically depending on what issue they have. So for health issues, every chakra basically controls some health of issues and also some emotional issues. So you cannot really isolate like a body and mind, right? They go, they always work together. Yeah. So if people have a lot of stress, it manifests into some kind of health issue if you don't address it soon enough. So most of the times I figure that most of the clients, their health issues are due to the stress that they're carrying. So, or anxiety. Yeah. So either the health issues or people come to me with any, for life coaching, if they approach me, then it is for relationship issues or just stress and anxiety, low self -esteem,

Inflammation is literally the root cause of all the different degenerative chronic health conditions, things like Alzheimer's, heart disease, Parkinson's disease, cancer, diabetes. These are all characterized by chronic inflammation. So I went ahead and I interviewed some of the top experts in the world when it comes to and inflammation actually created a summit, it was called the Chronic Inflammation Summit. We hosted it in May of 2021. You may have listened, you may not have, but I wanted to share some of my favorite interviews on this podcast, and this is one of them. You guys are going to get so much value out of this podcast, and if you know anybody that's struggling with any sort of chronic health conditions, maybe they have pain in their diabetes, brain issues, please share this podcast with them. It can literally change and save their lives, and if you haven't already, take a moment and leave us a five star review. Your reviews help us reach more people and impact more lives. Thanks so much for doing that, and let's go into the show. Well, hey everybody, welcome back to the Chronic Inflammation Summit. I'm your host, Dr. David Jockers, and today we're going to be talking about parasites and gut infections, how they provoke inflammation, and natural strategies you can take to help reduce your microbial load, to help heal your microbiome, and reduce inflammation in your body, and really thrive in life. And so I've got a great guest, Dr. Todd Watts, he's affectionately called the Parasite Man, and he runs Total Body Wellness Clinic up in Boise, Idaho, and you may also be familiar with his supplement companies, Microbe Formulas, as well as Cell Core Biosciences. Not only does he help develop supplements, but on top of that, he also educates doctors, lay people, different practitioners of all types on how they can help their clients, particularly clients with chronic inflammation and chronic, just chronically debilitating cases get well. He's well known, people travel to his clinic from literally all over the world. He also works with people over Zoom as well. So Dr. Todd, welcome to the summit. Thanks for having me on, Dr. Jockers. Absolutely. Well, you know, we got to start obviously by talking about parasites. And so really talking about what they are, your experience with them, and what kind of symptoms that somebody might experience if they have parasites. So it's interesting in my journey of my own health and wellness, and in many of my clients and patients, how much of a part this became of it, where in the beginning, I didn't know really anything about parasites, it was more working with Lyme disease and the co -infections and Epstein -Barr and many of the more commonly known things. So in this evolution of things, parasites came up with a doctor that I had worked with and he said, hey, look, your headaches and some of the other seasonal allergies and things that are going on, these are coming from a threadworm, a specific type of parasite. So this is what got me on to learning all about parasites and diving into the physiology within the body, what it's doing and what's happening.
Dr. Jockers Functional Nutrition
A highlight from The Top 5 Most Inflammatory Food Ingredients to Avoid
"Hello, and welcome to the Dr. Jockers Functional Nutrition Podcast, the show designed to give you science -based solutions to improve your health and life. I'm Dr. David Jockers, doctor of natural medicine and creator of drjockers .com, and I'm the host of this podcast. I'm here to tell you that your body was created to heal itself, and on this show, we focus on strategies you can apply today to heal and function at your best. Thanks for spending time with me, and let's go into the show. Are hidden toxins and stressors making you feel run down and tired, worried about oxidative stress from exposure to EMF, 5G, heavy metals, chemicals, processed foods, and the like? You see, in our modern world, toxic is the new normal. No matter how health conscious you try to be, the truth is that every single day, you're being bombarded by harmful toxins and stressors. When left to roam free, these toxins take on the form of something called free radicals. Free radicals promote an unhealthy inflammatory response and contribute to oxidative damage on a site or level, basically like the rusting of metal or the browning of an apple that potentially leads to premature aging, a lower quality of life, and a range of health problems. However, there is good news. Antioxidants are crucial in combating free radicals and keeping you on track, and one of the most powerful antioxidants known to man is glutathione. Glutathione fights free radicals and molecules that cause cellular damage while repairing DNA and flushing out toxins, but here's the thing. Not all glutathione supplements are created equal. If you're taking glutathione in capsule or tablet form, you're missing out on key nutrients as they will simply pass through your body without being absorbed. You can thank your stomach acid for that. However, our friends over at Puroality Health have a patented formula that utilizes something called Mycell Liposomal Technology, which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream, proven to be 800 % more efficient. Even better, it's backed by a 180 -day money back guarantee. And today we have a 30 % off coupon for you. Just visit PuroalityHealth .com, that's P -U -R -A -L -I -T -Y -H -E -A -L -T -H .com, and use the coupon code DRJ to access 30 % off today. Again, that coupon code is DRJ. Use that at PuroalityHealth .com and check out their Mycell Liposomal Clutathione. This podcast is an audio recording of one of my most popular YouTube videos on the top five most inflammatory foods to avoid. Super critical that we understand these foods, these food ingredients, and that we're reading labels and making sure we're avoiding them so we can keep inflammation under control in our body. And you guys are going to really enjoy this. If you know anybody that's looking to improve their nutrition, please share this podcast with them. If you've not subscribed to our channel, do that now so you never miss one of these important trainings. And also take a moment and leave us a five -star review. I've got a great one here from Mary. She says, Dr. Jockers has helped me learn how to take better care of my body through this informative podcast. Thank you for sharing your faith. Thanks so much, Mary. You guys can leave your five -star review. Just go to Apple iTunes, wherever you listen to the podcast, scroll to the bottom where it says, leave a review and leave us a five -star review. When you do that, it helps us reach more people and impact more lives. Thanks so much for doing that and let's go into the show. Hey, today we're talking about the five most inflammatory foods that you want to avoid. These foods drive up inflammation. We know that inflammation is at the root. Chronic inflammation is at the root of all chronic degenerative diseases. We're talking about things like dementia, Alzheimer's, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, autoimmune conditions. All of them at the root have chronic inflammation and much of that can be avoided because it comes from our diet and so we've got to get our diet, our nutrition right in order to keep inflammation down so we can think better, feel better and really thrive in life. And so these are the foods we want to make sure we avoid. Number one, processed sugar and high fructose corn syrup. So if you see sugar as an ingredient, most of the time it's not a good thing. Sometimes in some cases, maybe like a fermented coconut water or something like that possibly could be good. But in general, if you see sugar as an ingredient in something, it's not good. It's going to be processed sugar. And also if you see high fructose corn syrup or any type of corn syrup, you want to make sure you avoid that super high glycemic impact which drives up your blood sugar and drives up your insulin levels, drives up inflammation in the body, causes weight gain, causes blood sugar imbalances and again drives up inflammation. So got to avoid that. Number two, processed seed oils and trans fats. What does that mean? What is a seed oil? So we take a seed, for example, let's say corn actually is considered a seed. So we take the corn, the kernel of it, and we press it to get oil. There's not actually a whole lot of oil in there. And so we have to press it, you know, we have to take a lot of corn, right? In fact, to create one ounce of corn oil, you have to take a thousand bushels of corn. And so you would never get that in nature. However, it's really easy to do, you know, because our government subsidizes the production of corn. It's easy for manufacturers to get. It's really cheap for them. So they're able to produce it and you can get some some salad dressing that uses corn oil as their base, pour it on your salad and you get an ounce of corn oil and that corn oil is really high in omega -6 fats, it's damaged fats, it's pro -inflammatory fats that are unstable and drive up oxidative stress and inflammation in the body. So we want to make sure we're avoiding these seed oils, corn oil, soybean, safflower, cotton seed, peanut oil, sunflower oil, canola, I mentioned peanut oil. I think I mentioned most of them, cotton seed. So we want to make sure that we're avoiding those and also anything that says partially hydrogenated or hydrogenated oil, that is a trans fat, highly reactive in the body, highly inflammatory. And what happens is these denatured fats, these denatured polyunsaturated fats and trans fats get into the cell membrane of all the cells of our body and they will literally sit there for six months to a year sometimes. So it takes you roughly six months, sometimes a year, to actually detoxify these out of your cell membrane to get the inflammation under control. So you want to do everything you can to reduce your exposure to them, to reduce any level of consumption of those seed oils. Number three is gluten and you may have heard of gluten -free and gluten, but you may not know what it is. Gluten is a protein that's found in wheat, barley, rye, and chamouton spelt. Those are the main grains that have gluten. However, there's families of the actual gliadin compound that are found in all grains. And gluten can be problematic because some people have a major sensitivity or an allergy basically to it and they create a strong antibody response and they may be prone to things like celiac disease where the villi in the small intestine get completely destroyed. The villi are important. They're little pockets in the small intestine that are essential for our body to be able to really deliver and absorb nutrients into the bloodstream. When those pockets get destroyed, we're not able to extract nutrients from the food that we consume as effectively. There's brush border enzymes and all different types of mechanisms that allow us to utilize those villi to maximize nutrient absorption. So people with celiac disease, they right from the start have more trouble getting nutrients from their food. And there are a lot of people that have an allergy to gluten that doesn't even affect their digestive system. We call it non -celiac gluten sensitivity. So they have a sensitivity to gluten that primarily affects maybe their skin. Maybe when they eat gluten, they have more eczema or they have more joint pain or they have brain fog, depression, anxiety, different issues like that. And so non -celiac gluten sensitivity is a big issue as well. And then even if you feel like you tolerate gluten well, we know that gluten, the molecule, will actually stimulate the production of zonulin in your intestine. And zonulin is this protein that helps with the integrity of the tight junctions in between the intestinal cells called enterocytes. And the more zonulin that's produced, the looser those tight junctions become. So gluten has been shown, even in people that don't have a gluten sensitivity or gluten allergy, it has actually been shown to increase zonulin levels pretty dramatically to the point where the tight junctions in the gut become incredibly permeable, right? So the tight junctions, they become very, very loose and weak. And that increases the permeability and allows large undigested food molecules as well as bacteria and bacterial waste, things things like LPS, which we call endotoxin, as well as yeast, parasites, and all the different microbial waste to seep out into the bloodstream. And all of that microbial waste and large undigested food particles will stimulate the immune system to drive up inflammation in the body. So we know gluten is a major and a potent trigger of inflammation for some people more than others, but for all of us at some level, it's going to drive up inflammation.

The Hair Radio Show with Kerry Hines
Elderly Army Vet Mistreated by Police: Attorney Lisa Bloom Weighs In
"Guys know Lisa Bloom. She is one of television's top attorneys as well as just helping us to navigate so many of these issues that have been popping up and just standing up for folks who may not feel like they have a big voice, so it's always an honor for us to welcome Miss Lisa Bloom of the Bloom Firm to the Hair Radio Morning Show. So again, good morning, Lisa. Thank you so much for having me and for the kind introduction. Absolutely, and listen, you have a wonderful client that I had a quick moment to chat with a little bit, Mr. John Parrish. We're going to get him totally intro here, but first I want to bring to the line one of my co -hosts, we produce a program called the Vet Talk Radio Show, which airs across my network, and Michael Hopkins is the host of that program, and Michael himself is a disabled veteran, and this story, that's what I saw this week, but it just, there are no words that you guys are going to, we're going to kind of get into this a little bit so you will understand exactly what I'm talking about. So, Michael, I want to introduce you officially to Miss Lisa Bloom and to our very special guest today, Mr. John Parrish. Now, John, you are an Army veteran, and I understand that you were a lieutenant in the Army. That's correct. Right? And so this whole thing, which happened back in March of 2022, which was the California Highway Patrol officer stopped you for a misdemeanor traffic stop as you were driving home with your adult special needs daughter. And Mr. Parrish, now, I'm going to say this, you know, with a life well lived at 80, you know, I wouldn't expect you to be out there just, you know, doing all kinds of somersaults and things like that. So, you know, so anyway, you were, you don't pose, you didn't pose a threat, obviously, to anybody. I mean, you know, so with that, right? So the officers, I'm just trying to understand this as well. So now, you advised them that you had hearing problems, vertigo, and diabetes, and they still, you were handcuffed, amongst, I understand, and you were handcuffed. They handcuffed you tightly behind your back, and literally carted you off like you were property of some sort. So they ignored, literally, I'm sure you've told them several times and that that was painful. I mean, you know, that would be the first thing anybody would do. And so, and you were left in jail hours without receiving proper medical attention, despite, obviously, that you told them over and over and over again that it was needed. So, and it really kind of didn't happen, you know, you weren't really able to, they received that adequate medical attention until after you were released. So, and what has turned out, you sustained really bad injuries, as far as I can see. I mean, this is, you're talking about a broken arm, internal bleeding, and a hand that was severely swollen. So I have to go back a little bit on this, Mr. Parrish. What can you tell us, in your own words? Is that, did you have anything you wanted to add to that recount that I just mentioned? I missed your question. I'm sorry. Did you have anything that you wanted to add to that in terms of what happened that night? That was pretty much it. That's a, well, there's a lot of details, but that's a pretty good summary. Okay. So, Mr. Parrish, how did that make you feel? Because that was the first thing that jumped out at me, and I'm going to ask Michael on this too, but that was the first thing that jumped out on me, being an Army veteran and being a lieutenant, a first lieutenant, okay, in the U .S. Army, and knowing that, you know, some of that, someone can kind of treat you in this manner. What did that make you feel like, sir? It felt like being at P .O .W. Wow. That's what it felt like. Wow. Just unbelievable. Unbelievable. Lisa, I have to turn, yes. Oh, I'm sorry. Go right ahead, Mr. Parrish, please. I mean, first of all, I never expected to be arrested, even after the officers stopped me, and then, I mean, you know, maybe they give you a traffic ticket or something. I've had a couple of those in my life, but no, they arrested me and cuffed me and took me off to jail and, you know, and all those other bad things and transpired. So, it felt like being at P .O .W., because P .O .W. are mistreated by their captors, right? Yeah, I have to tell you, Lisa, I have to turn to you on this, and you've handled, you know, you've been on our show with many of these types of cases. Sadly, there are way too many. Yes. What, yes, what can you tell us? What really, you know, this is hard for us to take. What was your take on this when you met Mr. Parrish and found out about this? I was so outraged that my tax dollars are going to pay police to bully an elderly vet in my community. I mean, there is no reason for this, and I think law enforcement just over and over again we see this abusive behavior when it is not necessary. You know, John was simply driving down the road with his adult special needs daughter, as you say, he was fully cooperative when he got pulled over, he didn't threaten anyone, he didn't make any moves towards anyone, they don't even allege that he did. And so, there was no reason to handle him at all. And then, you know, even in the California Highway Patrol, the entity we're talking about, in their rules, they say that within their discretion, they cannot handcuff people who are pregnant, disabled, or elderly. And so, John, you know, made it clear, he said something like, I'm old, and he talked about his medical issues, and complained that his arm hurt, and, you know, there was no compassion for him as just a human being to take the handcuffs off. And then, when he got to the jail, he was asking for medical aid, that was not provided, as the law requires. And now he has, John, I think, can talk to you about how difficult it is at age 80 to try to heal, you know, the body just does not heal as fast when you're elderly.
Food Addiction, the Problem and the Solution
Dr. Robert Lustig Exposes Truth Behind Sugar and Obesity
"Dr. Robert Lustig is professor emeritus of pediatrics, division of endocrinology at the University of California, San Francisco. He specializes in the field of neuroendocrinology with an emphasis on the regulation of energy balance by the central nervous system. His research in clinical practice has focused on childhood obesity and diabetes. Dr. Lustig holds a bachelor's in science degree from MIT, a doctorate in medicine from Cornell Medical College and a master's of studies in law from UC Hastings College of Law. Dr. Lustig has fostered a global discussion of metabolic health and nutrition exposing some of the leading myths that underlie the current pandemic of diet -related disease. He believes the food business by pushing processed food loaded with sugar has hacked our bodies and minds to pursue pleasure instead of happiness, fostering today's epidemics of addiction and depression. By focusing on real food, we can beat the odds against sugar, processed food, obesity and disease. And you wrote a couple of books. One is Fat Chance and it's a New York Times and the bestsellers list and the latest one Metabolical, I have read and formed my questions and I have a lot of quotes for you and ask you to address them. Actually it's not really a... You might you might also mention the third book and the reason is because we're talking about addiction and I wrote a book that's pretty much all about addiction and depression and that is The Hacking of the American Mind which really is about diet and mental health and so this is a book that your audience may very much appreciate. Good, wonderful and I would love to have you back and maybe talk about that one and Fat Chance. So yeah we'd love to have you back. I know Esther would agree. You explain that the book Metabolic, it's not really a word Metabolical but but it's a combination of Metabolic and Diabolical and what is going on is Metabolical. Your YouTube video, Sugar the Bitter Truth, has gone viral with over 24 million views and this is the truth. This is, these are the studies that back it up. I'm a believer. We're gonna talk about big food, big pharma, medical industry and the government which are all contributing to this and I told Esther when we decided who to invite I said I want to invite Rob. I've followed you, I've listened to your your videos, you're brilliant and you're bold. You speak the truth and which is based on science and data. Yeah let's start by talking about your work and why you decided to write this book. First of all, you know I didn't come at this with an agenda. I'm a pediatric neuroendocrinologist. I started out taking care of kids with brain tumors and it turns out that a lot of kids with brain tumors become massively obese and I had to deal with the obesity. As I researched that phenomenon which is called hypothalamic obesity, I realized that the same physiology that was causing patients these obesity was actually important in general obesity not related to brain tumors. The hormone insulin, okay, is you know the diabetes hormone. Everybody knows that you know you have to take insulin if you have diabetes to lower your blood sugar. Well where does the blood sugar go with because of the insulin? The answer is it goes to your fat. Insulin is the energy storage hormone and we started realizing that pretty much everybody with obesity had an insulin problem and actually those with the highest insulin problems also had all of these other diseases like for instance polycystic ovarian disease, fatty liver disease, cancer, dementia, gout, hypertension. It turned out we realized that insulin was the bad guy in the story and so then the question was what makes insulin go up in people that don't have brain tumors and the answer was sugar and so you know that's how I got into this and you know basically I've been trying to explain you know the vicissitudes of the American diet you know to the public ever since and explaining that you know there is no pill for this. You know the only way to get insulin down is get rid of the refined carbohydrate and sugar.

We talk all about the best advanced nutrition strategies to reduce inflammation and improve insulin sensitivity. There's a lot of things you can do if you are looking to lose weight, if you're looking to improve your blood sugar sensitivity. We know insulin resistance is at the root of all chronic inflammatory conditions, but there's a lot we can do from a nutrition perspective. We go through that in this interview. I talk a lot about intermittent fasting and how that helps improve mitochondrial function, helps improve blood sugar stability and turn on fat burning. We talk about how to improve your stomach acid, bile flow, pancreatic enzymes, so you can reduce the amount of endotoxins that are released from your gut and into your bloodstream that drive up inflammatory activity in your body. So this is a really powerful presentation showing you exactly what you need to do to stabilize your blood sugar, to burn fat for fuel and reduce inflammation. If you know anybody that's dealing with type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, perhaps they're overweight looking to lose weight or they're obese, please share this episode with them.

Hey everyone, welcome to the Reversing Type 2 Diabetes Summit. I'm your host, Dr. Beverly Yates, MD. It's my distinct privilege and honor to interview a wonderful colleague of mine, Dr. David Jockers. He's been a leader in many aspects of health and continues to help people have clarity about their health. One of the things that's so interesting as we do all the episodes here for the summit is I'm trying very consciously to give people different points of view and different aspects of what it takes for blood sugar success to be well. So with Dr. David Jockers, we're going to introduce him in just a moment here. He's a doctor of natural medicine and runs one of the most popular natural health websites online in drjockers .com and has gotten over a million views for monthly visitors and his work is really popular. It's been seen on shows like The Dr. Oz Show and Hallmark Home and Family. He's the author of the best -selling book, The Keto -Metabolic Breakthrough and also The Fasting Transformation. He's a world -renowned expert in the area of ketosis, fasting, brain health, inflammation and functional nutrition. He also hosts his popular Dr. Jockers Functional Nutrition podcast. Be sure to look up his work, check out what that he's offering. Dr. Jockers, welcome to our summit. Thanks so much, Dr. Beverly. Great to be on with you. Yeah. You know, I've really been excited for our talk because I think that there are so many ways in which people can eat and nourish themselves and some things are certainly more helpful or successful when it comes to blood sugar control and glycemic regulations than others. So with that in mind, let's dig in right away here. So please, if you would share with us your perspective here, what is inflammation and how does it develop? Yeah. Inflammation is just a natural process of healing. In fact, it's actually designed to help protect our body from some sort of chronic systemic infection and so, well, not chronic infection, but some sort of systemic acute infection from killing us quickly. And so I think we look at the history of mankind. More people have died from infections that got into our bloodstreams, bloodstreams spread throughout our body, went into major vital organs and killed us is what used to kill most of our ancestors. And so our body has created this inflammatory process to help protect against that. So the infection that gets in doesn't get into our lungs and cause pneumonia or our nervous system and cause meningitis. And so in order to do that, we created this inflammatory process to keep basically infection under control. And it's also part of the healing process. We break down damaged tissue and we try to remove that in order to build new healthy tissue. So for example, if we sprain our ankle, we're going to break down that tissue and try to rebuild new healthy tissue in that area. So inflammation itself is life saving. The issue is that it should be turned off when the appropriate area is healed. And so in our society, we have certain vectors that are turning up inflammation. For example, one is called leaky gut, right? So when somebody has leaky gut, there's damage, micro damage to the intestinal lining. And every time that person's eating food, particularly food that causes more gut irritation, they are further tearing that gut lining and they're not really allowing their body to heal properly. And therefore, they're spewing out bacteria and endotoxins into their bloodstream through that lining, through that hole. And that's driving up inflammation in the body because the body thinks that it's under attack from some sort of systemic infection or some sort of basically infectious process that could be life threatening. And so we've got to do what we can to get inflammation under control in our society. And so I think about it like a fire in a fireplace. You know, if the fire is on in the fireplace, it's great. It warms the house. You know, it creates a great environment, an ambiance. However, when we dump gasoline on the fire, right now it spreads on the walls and starts to burn our home. And obviously that's when it's a major issue. And so in our society, we have lifestyle habits that are dumping gasoline on the fire and causing us to burn up our home. And we just don't really understand it. We don't realize that's actually what we're doing to our body. And then we later, you know, after doing this for years and years and years, we get diagnosed with the chronic disease. But this is many years of chronic inflammation, damaging cells, tissues and organ systems of our body leading to, you know, that disease diagnosis. Absolutely. Absolutely. Thank you for laying that out so clearly. You know, it's so interesting in clinical work, sometimes it comes up. People are like, this just happened to me overnight, thinking that their body has attacked them or betrayed them and that their diagnosis has come on all of a sudden when in reality, nope, this was years in the making. So thank you so much for pointing that out for us. So anyone listening to this, if you have an inflammatory problem, please know. It took time for it to develop and it will take some time for it to heal. The good news is, if healing is possible, that it's likely to be a lot faster compared to the silent onset process. It's like too bad. It would be great if our body, as we get more and more inflamed, gave us a sound or a noise or maybe we turned polka dotted or something so we can know that something's going on here, you know? Yeah, for sure. And many times people do have chronic symptoms that are giving them a warning sign. And we just ignore it in our society, right? It's kind of like a check engine light goes on in our car. Typically we know, okay, I need to bring this in and get it looked at. But in our society, if we have headaches, chronic headaches, if we have chronic gut pain, if we have chronic joint pain, if we have skin rashes, acne, eczema, if we are gaining weight and we try some lifestyle strategies and we're just not losing weight, if we're gaining weight and we can go on and on, in our society, oftentimes the first thing we do is we go right to some sort of medication or we try to just ignore it. It's like we just let the check engine light stay on or we take some duct tape and just kind of stick it over it and pretend that everything's okay with the car. And that's really what we're doing. We're not actually getting to the root cause. Exactly. So that brings me to my very next question for you, which is this. What are some of the root causes of inflammation and how can this be measured quantitatively with lab testing? So when we look at root causes of chronic inflammation, one, and this is what you're really addressing in this summit, is a diet and lifestyle that is not right, right? So high blood sugar and insulin resistance, primarily driven by the food that we're consuming and lack of exercise, right? Lack of movement, food that we're consuming, obviously stress plays a role. So high stress, poor sleep hygiene and poor sleep quality. Sleep quality is super important. We've got to make sure we're sleeping really well when we are sleeping, but also proper hygiene when it comes to sleep. That plays a big role with our sleep quality. For example, shift workers, they might sleep eight or nine hours, but because they're sleeping at the wrong hours that are not right with, you know, humans, natural circadian rhythm or we're supposed to be sleeping at night, they tend to have higher levels of blood sugar and insulin resistance compared to people that are sleeping the same amount of hours and working kind of a normal shift and then sleeping overnight. So those are major factors. And then beyond that, we have things like chronic infections. So we know that when we have different infections, whether it's a candida overgrowth in our gut, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, H. pylori infections in our stomach, parasite infections, Lyme disease, things like that, that all drives up inflammatory processes in our body. Chronic overload of toxicity. All of us are exposed to chemicals in our air, water and food. So all of us have levels of toxicity coming into our system. But if our drainage and detoxification pathways are working properly, we should be eliminating a good amount of those and keeping our toxic bucket under control. And so we all have kind of like a toxic threshold. And so if we keep things under that threshold by keeping, you know, by limiting our exposure to toxins and then by allowing our body to detox and drain effectively, then, you know, that doesn't drive inflammation. However, if we're consuming lots of toxins from the food, we eat the air, we breathe the things we're putting on our skin, the water we're drinking, and then we're not doing things to help improve our lymphatic system, our liver, our gut, our kidneys. Right. We're not we're not peeing. You know, we should be urinating. Right. We should be peeing out toxins. We should be breathing them out. So respiration, perspiration, that's sweating, urination and defecation. Right. So we should be peeing, pooping, breathing. And sweating out these toxins. If we're not doing that, then our toxic load goes up, goes over that threshold, drives inflammation in the body. So toxicity is a big factor. You know, I mentioned stress. There can also be things like post -traumatic stress disorders. Right. So where somebody's had major trauma and their body never really recovered from that trauma and they're kind of reliving that trauma. Maybe somebody that was a war veteran or perhaps they were sexually abused or something along those lines. Right. They may relive those traumas on a regular basis, driving up inflammation in the body. So all of these things need to be addressed and and considered. Somebody might be living in a mold toxic house, right, breathing in mold and mycotoxins on a daily basis. They're trying to live a healthy lifestyle, but they're constantly overloading their their system with toxins. And so we've got to be able to look at all of those factors and make sure that we're addressing those to keep inflammation under control. Now, when we're measuring inflammation on labs, there's some easy labs that we can look at. You know, you can get done on blood work. For example, one of the most common is high sensitivity C reactive protein. CRP is a protein that our body, our immune system produces in response to inflammation. And, you know, so long as you don't get a false negative, like if you work out really intensely right before you get your blood test done, your CRP will be through the roof. That's actually a healthy level of inflammation, because after we exercise, we have inflammation to help our body heal and recover. So normally you want to not work out roughly 48 hours before getting the test done, ideally at least 24 hours. So you get the right measurement and your HSCRP should ideally be under one and really as close to zero as possible. And so typically it's not flag tie unless it's up over two or three, somewhere in that range. But anything over one is a sign that there's underlying inflammation there. And that's something that we definitely want to look at and address. So that's a big factor. You know, I know in this in this summit, I'm sure you've got people talking about things like hemoglobin A1C. We know hemoglobin A1C, that's a sign of the glycation process or basically when a sugar molecule binds to a major protein, like in this case, when it binds to hemoglobin, major protein that helps bring oxygen to the cells in the body and denatures the hemoglobin. And so it causes a sticky protein process. So we should have ideally like the optimal range really is is really under under 5 .2 on the hemoglobin, 5 .2 percent under. And so typically in our society, nothing is flagged until it's up over six, up over six percent. I like to keep mine under five, right? Between four point five and five. Some are in that range to make sure that my hemoglobin, my red blood cells have great capacity to bring oxygen to the cells so I can create the cellular energy I need to really thrive. So hemoglobin A1C is a really good marker. There's another one actually that you can test, too. It's it's it's called a novel marker for systemic inflammation. It's called GlycA, right? And so it's also a marker of glycosylation and again, a sugar molecule binding to proteins. In this case, GlycA looks at proteins particularly involved in the immune system. And so when that's elevated, I like to see it between one hundred and three hundred. Some are in that range, more closer to one hundred when it's up over three hundred. We know that's a sign of systemic inflammation. In fact, there are some individuals that will have normal HSCRP, but we'll see the GlycA elevated. And so that's a really good it's a novel marker. They've just been doing a number of studies on that, really starting just in the last five years. Very interesting marker. We know, for example, statin drugs will have a cholesterol lowering medications can have a mild anti -inflammatory effect that may bring CRP down, but they don't bring GlycA down. Whereas a lot of lifestyle strategies that you're talking about on the summit will help bring both of those markers down. And so that's a that's a really important thing to be looking at. Another key marker is LDH, lactate dehydrogenase, which is part of our natural energy, you know, our glycolysis and Krebs cycle. It's kind of a Krebs cycle glycolysis intermediary enzyme. And so when that's elevated, it's a sign that there's inflammation, particularly heart tissue related as well as liver. Right. Could be related to liver. And speaking of liver, liver enzymes are another really good marker. So when we're seeing liver enzymes like ALT, AST, GGT, when these when these are elevated up over roughly up over 25, that's a sign that there's inflammation affecting the liver cells. And then based on the ratios, for example, if ALT is real high, AST is kind of in the normal range, roughly 10 to 25 in that normal range. We know that inflammation is really affecting the liver when AST is high and ALT is more in the normal range or a lot lower than AST. We start thinking about that inflammation affecting muscle tissues or affecting the heart in particular. So that's a key marker for that. When GGT is real high up over 25 again and the AST and ALT are lower than the GGT, then we start thinking about biliary tree, gallbladder, bile ducts, that region. So it kind of helps us understand more of where that inflammation may be located. So these are just some of the markers. You know, if you get a good a good look, you know, you can also look at just a lipid panel, like where you're looking at your LDL, which is considered the bad cholesterol, your triglycerides, your HDL levels. We like to see the triglyceride to HDL ratio. If there was one thing I was going to look at on a lipid panel, I think all the markers can have some importance. We can get some good clinical data from all those markers. But if there was one marker I think is most important to look at, it would be the triglyceride to HDL ratio. So how many triglycerides, which are basically free fatty acids that our body can use as an energy source that are circulating in the bloodstream versus the high density lipoproteins, which are a carrier molecule that helps bring fats, lipids, all different types of molecules back to the liver from the cells. And so when we're looking at that ratio, we ideally should be under two. So under two parts triglyceride to HDL, roughly close to one. And that kind of close, as close to one as possible, one part triglyceride, one part HDL, like to see that triglyceride level certainly under a hundred. OK, and we look at that. That is a key marker for insulin resistance and inflammation. If your triglyceride to HDL ratio is up over two, if your HDL is under 50, you know, triglycerides are up over a hundred. You know, definitely a sign of insulin resistance and inflammation taking place in the body as long as the test is done fasting. Right. We always want to make sure with the lipid panel definitely can be affected if we eat a meal right before we we get that lab done. But that's a really key marker to look at and helps us understand how well our body's responding to getting nutrients into the cells. So when triglycerides are real high, we're not good at burning fat for fuel. We've got all these extra fats out in the cell or outside in the bloodstream. And those fats can become denatured and cause more reactive oxygen species and drive up oxidative stress and inflammation in the system. So all very important markers to be looking at. A lot of these tests are not expensive, but glyca is a little bit more pricey. But most of the other ones you can easily get from your physician. Just go in, ask for the high sensitivity, high sensitivity to your reactive protein, lipid panel, liver enzymes. Right. They'll run all of those. And then one other marker that we should look at as well as vitamin D levels are 25 hydroxy vitamin D. A lot of research out showing that levels on certainly under 30 nanograms per milliliter, where you're you're the lab will actually flag you as deficient, you know, linked with all cause mortality. So if you have levels under 30, you're all cause mortality, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis, neurodegenerative condition. We talk about any sort of chronic disease and then dying of anything goes up. Right. So it's really easy actually to bump that up. Ideally, we do it by getting in the sun. However, most of us just not getting enough sunshine. We may not be living in an area where the sun's going to impact us in a significant way to get the vitamin D if we're up. Let's say we live in Canada, we live in Maine, we live in these northern climates. It's going to be harder to get enough vitamin D from the sun. But if we are in a you know, even if we are in that location, like in the summer months, trying to get as much sun on as much of your body as possible. Obviously, you don't want to burn. But outside of that, trying to get the sunshine is key. Sun offers a lot more benefits than just a vitamin D supplement. However, taking a vitamin D supplement as well can be really helpful. I usually recommend about a thousand international units per twenty five pounds of body weight taken with meals you do at one or two doses, depending on how much of that you need. And that will definitely get your vitamin D levels up. You want to test every three to six months or so and kind of look at where you're at. Ideally, I like to see it up over 60 nanograms per milliliter, usually not concerned about overdosing. The research shows that as long as you keep it really under about 150 nanograms per milliliter, you won't deal with any sort of, you know, toxicity, vitamin D toxicity. It's really hard to get it up over 150, although it can be done if you're taking like 50 ,000 units every single day. So if you're taking roughly five, 10, 15 ,000 units every day, you're probably going to optimize your vitamin D and do really well. And so those would be some of the key labs I would definitely recommend. All right, great, thank you for that list of people listening, friends, you know, here in the audience, please do take out your notes, get your paper and pen ready, or if you're keeping a Google doc or however you're keeping track and look at this list because it'll be helpful to you to help guide your own health and be aware. And you may find you're already working with a doctor who's doing these kind of testing. It's not time to time to up level. Hey, I just wanted to interrupt this podcast to tell you about my cell liposomal glutathione. This is an amazing product because our modern world is toxic. No matter how health conscious you try to be. The truth is that every single day you and I are being bombarded by harmful toxins and stressors, things like EMF, 5G, heavy metals, chemicals, processed foods and the like. And when left to roam free, these toxins take on the form of something called free radicals. Free radicals promote an unhealthy inflammatory response and contribute to oxidative on damage the cellular level. This is kind of like the browning of an apple. This is happening inside of our bodies at all times, and it's potentially leading to premature aging, a lower quality of life and a range of health problems. But the good news is that we can fight back with antioxidants and they are crucial in combating free radicals and keeping you on track. And one of the most powerful antioxidants known to man is glutathione. You see, glutathione fights free radicals and molecules that cause cellular damage while repairing the DNA and flushing out toxins. The only thing about glutathione is that not all supplements are created equal. You want a kind of glutathione that has optimal absorption capacity. And that is why I love the Pureality Health My Cell Liposomal Technology, which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream. And it's proven to be 800 percent more efficient than other forms of glutathione. And even better, this is backed by a 180 day money back guarantee. And today we have a 30 percent off coupon for you.

"Another beautiful and divine day in Diva Naples here, September 9th, Saturday, 2023, and this is episode 439 from this Mike Rich and from this Mike Matt, another Saturday, it is a Saturday, I'm so happy, how was your uh checkout, doctor checkout, it was great, you got a smile on your face, I told you yesterday that I was getting a checkup for for the insurance aspect of infinite banking, we'll talk about that some other day, uh but I had an awesome time, she checked all my blood, and what did they say, and then I had an EKG that came out perfect, oh good, hold on just a second, let me, hold on just a second, oh there you go, oh there's that German cake I had to diss yesterday, I felt really bad about it, but now I'm back to destroying my body, so I'll go ahead, destroy it, let's do it, let's eat this sugar, this looks awesome, I've been doing a lot of complaining for years about German cakes, so yeah, and since they say you are, you got a free pass, yeah, let's just destroy it, let's do it, yeah, yeah, what do I care about, exactly, any diabetes or anything else, it might be a result, you just close your eyes and say you never had it, right, it's the only problem I always tell people, like the only problem is gonna be in your head, you know what I'm saying, you're gonna have to figure it out, right, explain it to yourself, you don't have to explain to anybody else, oh my gosh, it's a little frozen, isn't it, it's absolutely delicious, is that blueberry, this is blueberry cream cheese, yeah, crumbled cream cheesecake, it's German, German, but you know yesterday was fresh and you said you don't want it, so I just shove it in the freezer, make an ice cream out of it, you know what's awesome though, because you probably had no idea this, but blueberry is my favorite berry for fruit pies and cakes, you know what, if this would have onion, you would say same thing, you mean if you put a chili dog in front of my face, you didn't have a cake for 24 hours, so everything would be your favorite, oh yeah, that's true, yeah, well speaking of that, do you know what they call train carrying bubble gum, choo -choo gum, yeah, no, choo -choo train, yeah, and in your case, you know, the dog is cheap, yeah, you will find out as soon as you talk to a lawyer, yeah, right, here it is, yeah, so be careful, all right, I will, so shove a couple more forks in your opening, yeah, and then, so you can be quiet, because I have essentials to do, I will do that, why don't you get to the essentials while I shove German cake down my throat, yeah, we will still hear it, it's gonna fall down so deep, because you have nothing there, that's right, I told you not to eat 24 hours, anything, but I've been eating all day since I got done with that EKG, yeah, it's 9 p .m and this is the perfect thing to put up there, you know, ending this Saturday, put it right on top of those burgers and things I ate today, oh did you, oh yeah, you didn't tell me that, onion rings do, oh my god, where's mine, I forgot, oh yeah, I'm gonna bring you this, I'm gonna bring you that, I'm sure, you know, loyal listeners now just laughing their faces and saying, saying yeah, he was right, he always promised him something, never bring him anything, all right, yeah, you are the one on the streets, I can barely get to the garbage can, you'd be all right, yeah, well today I had a, I closed my eye, I had a nap, no, one eye, yeah, close one eye, wow, can you believe it, three minutes, did you go past three minutes, yeah, three and a half, I think, well that's, it's a record, that's a record for you, yeah, I feel so guilty, yeah, you should, yeah, Julian Bruce, Terra Ketera, Apache music, thank you for all the music that you provide us with and the song that we start our podcast with, which is Divine Ables, very signature song for us and we are always tuned into this podcast, I hope everybody else that hears that as well and sponsor of this podcast is Divine Coffee and Wine Bar, our favorite place where we're getting all our Texas tea from and you know that this giving us the jolt and the energy that we can, you know, bring these voices to your ears, beachss .com, that's the place where you wanna go if you're interested, so 250 items available, just let us know what we can bring you, we will do our best to be there between 30 to 45 minutes, there's no charge for delivery if you order more than $15, which today it's, you know, two sandwiches and stuff, it's easy to do, yeah, easy, so, you know, we're still keeping everything very reasonable, salads from $12, organic salads, sandwiches, $13, I mean, we bring it to your beach, it's freshly made in our coffee and wine bar, not speaking of the alcohol, like the beers and, you know, cocktails and wine and everything, we have everything, now, weather, how about that? I got that weather today and we're gonna have a sunny day in the beginning, it's gonna be 99 it was today and we're gonna get down to a low of 78, a little bit of rain at 9 o 'clock, about a 70 % chance, then at 10 o 'clock 50 and at 11 o 'clock 40 % chance, so we're gonna have a pretty nice day, do you think we're gonna have rain? Yeah, we're headed towards, you know, seasonal weather, it's getting lower and lower, I mean, it's still pretty hot, my friend, during the day, but that's gonna start cooling down, well, that's gonna be so nice, just open windows and then we also see that that hurricane is out there, still, but they said it slowed down a little bit and so they're hoping that it's just gonna curve back up into the Atlantic, slow down a little bit yesterday, yeah, now, five miles an hour, yeah, back to the speed, it's picked up another five, uh -oh, but it is supposed to kind of turn it back into the Atlantic, right, until they throw the spaghetti on the wall, we really don't know, yeah, we don't know, I wish they'd throw some meatballs into that spaghetti, but the speed they said is back to 160, yesterday was from 160, that's crazy, so we are back from, you know, two days ago, so, doesn't know what it's doing, I think it's like driving with your wife, you know, it's just like, have you ever drove with your ex -wife when she said something, both of them, did she ever upset you and, and, you know, this is, you never drove like that, I tried to make sure that she never drove, I learned that in the army, right, when we, when you were out of the bunker, yeah, hold on, let me just give you another Iron Curtain story, they're the, they're the, my favorite of the day now, so, uh, we were, hold on, we were probably in the army for two weeks, you know, very fresh, you still don't know what, everything smells different, you still don't know what's going on, you know, they cut your hair, you have no hair, just look like a little, like, you know, freshly born, the little dog baby, yeah, and you just, you stick the head out of the bed, it goes like, what is today, you know, you just have no idea, so every day there was a surprise, so two weeks in, they just like, uh, you know, sound the alarm, everybody full gear, and they loaded us in this, uh, you know, very sophisticated army vehicles, you know, yeah, that has absolutely, absolutely no, uh, springs or any type of, you know, uh, no shock absorbers raining, no, no suspension, so you feel little stones on, on everything, so we're going in the road, and, uh, of course, you know, the, in the cabin, there were three seats only, and, uh, you know, the older soldiers, now we're gonna sit in the, in the, on the back, which we called pig house, you know, we call it pig house, like when you're transferring pigs to slaughterhouse, that's where you put them, that's where you guys were going, so the Russian front, so you're sitting, right, so you're sitting, uh, on a bench, very, like, a very nicely cushioned bench, which was jested from piece of wood, and you have all the gear on you, right, heavy, and now imagine you're sitting, uh, on a side, uh, towards front, so you don't, you don't sit, like, in the bus, like, facing front, right, right, you're sitting on the side, so we get out of the army base, and that soldier, that older soldier, no exactly, because they did same thing to him, when he was there, yeah, but he experienced it, and I learned it, and I later on did it to my ex -wife, she really liked that, you know, you hazed your own ex -wife, I was giving her the army special, you know, just the treatment, all the time, so she did something wrong, I just, so, so what he did, all the soldiers, like, he pressed the pedal, like, to the ground, right, the truck, it takes, like, maybe half a second to pick up, right, the speed, so just, like, move forward, and then he let it go, and press the brake, and just stop, and he did it, like, maybe 15, 20 times, some guys start puking, because they couldn't, like, you're sitting side to side, right, and you're hitting each other with this heavy gear, you got car sickness, yeah, yeah, so, you know, that's what, uh, I did to my ex -wife, oh, you're horrible, so when she was, you know, just, uh, the, you know, I'm, I'm, wouldn't it have been just better to be, do it my way, just don't let her drive, no, I was driving my ex -wife, when she was telling her where to go, and what to do, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm surprised the airbag didn't explode, oh my gosh, you know, she was really close with the face to the dashboard, it's not better than my friend from England, you know, what he did to his ex -wife, no, well, she started, I think, she got upset one day, because he forgot they had the tickets to the theater, and he came, uh, you know, what do you call it, uh, socially tired, he came from this, uh, place called restaurant, you know, after work, he worked for socially gathering, yeah, and he came home socially tired, right, yeah, so, uh, he didn't want to go to the theater, he went to social gathering, he didn't want to go, he was tired, I don't want to go anywhere, well, after a few beers, he got really tired, right, so he came home, yeah, she started yelling at him that they have to go, and they have to take shower and everything, and he's, you know, kind of like, I'm not going, and all this, so, right, he said it was so much fire in the house, that he had to dress himself, and all these things, and then when he was opening the door for her to get, uh, you know, seated in the car, he slammed the door when her hand was still between the doors, did he do it on purpose, oh my god, I guess we're staying home, so he saw her hand still holding when she was getting in the car, still telling him stuff, so he just shut the door, said we end up in the ER, I told her I don't want to go to the theater, oh, I'm surprised he didn't push her back in the car and say drive yourself to the emergency room, but yes, call me when you're, so next time, get all fixed up, when your wife is telling you stuff in the car, you just pretend you're in the army, press the pedal, gas, brake, gas, brake, and if that doesn't work, slam her hand in the door, that's the treatment, uh, but that would be the, that would be definitely, that'd be the extreme, yeah, well we're getting to our segment, which is our favorite segment of, uh, I'm thinking of it, it is my favorite segment, what do you call it, uh, decades, yeah, it is, it's of the century, maybe, we've been doing this for five years, but we just started this segment last week, but I love it for five years, I do too, I love this segment for whole five years, yeah, because it is what it is, and what is this segment, we know everything that the guy who knows everything doesn't know, so there you go, that's right, and if we, if we don't know it, we'll, we'll give the answer later, yeah, we will know it, there will be time, eventually, yeah, yeah, we will get to know it, because we're, we're on the mission on, on the know, it, I love I do too, yeah, so the idea is just to bring the news around the town, the Southwest Florida, what's going on, so you, your life is a little bit more educated, so you know, these days, there are fact checkers, and all kind of different things that are providing us from finding out what really is happening, so that's why Matt and I are dedicated, we eat cake over here, drink coffee, get fed, we have little doors, so I mean, this is, there's a situation we may not gonna get out of the studio one day, but for now, we, we are able to exit, so you know, if you're listening, you may be smarter, because, yeah, because you get all kinds of information, yeah, I mean, can I give you a couple, a little bit of information you got over a couple of decades? 1960, Yeah, oil is gone in 10 years, let me give you another one, 1970s was the ice age in 10 years, so we're gonna, that kind of didn't happen, 1980s, acid rain will destroy all crops in 10 years, what's the deal with 10 years, the 90s, the ozone layer will be gone in 10 years, what year is it right now, Rich? Did it start already? I guess, and then 2000 ice caps will be gone in 10 years, so when that started, that started in 2000, well, I think, I think Al Gore need to come back and explain that to us, so what we want to do is give you news that you can use in 10 years, oh, I love it, yeah, so let me just start with this, interesting fact that happened in Ecolier County and commissioners, they actually, I guess, start thinking, you know, what to do and how to, how to, maybe they use the crystal ball, how to plan the future here, yeah, maybe, and we've been preaching this for a while, we were always saying, yes, we were, Diva and Aprils, you know, we want to bring communities together because whatever, it's gonna be day, and it's not far, but federal government is gonna be thinking, we don't have much money left, what we're gonna do and how we're gonna distribute it, maybe we're just gonna skip some of the states and states gonna say, hey, we didn't get money, so some of the counties, and this is how it's gonna go, and counties to the cities and so on and so forth, so, all the way down to the local government, you have to realize that one day you're gonna have to be your own doctor, your own, you know, lawyer, and your own gardener, and your own everything, so let's just start practicing this, let's be independent, it's like our own community, and we're coming up with solutions, our own solutions as a community and coming together, and that's what we're all about, building community, and budgets obviously are a big part of that, and we live in Collier County, I believe the greatest county in all of Florida, that's my own opinion, but now you're gonna share some information about what's going on, I mean, we have some serious issues that we're gonna have to deal with, and this, let me say this, and we get there, okay, there's two things that could happen, you either gotta cut budgets to balance the budget, or you need to raise taxes to pay for that stuff, and we can do both, you can do both, but the real thing would be is to take an assessment and find out what we really need, what programs, where we can realistically cut the budget, and the federal government is in debt, we're all in debt, and they're gonna have to finally come to grips that you just can't spend yourself into wealth, and they're gonna have to make cuts, and the way they're gonna make cuts is doing exactly what you said, they're gonna cut their funds to the states and say, you guys are now responsible for that, and where are we gonna make up the shortcomings on that, is two things like you said both, either we're gonna cut the budgets, or we're gonna raise taxes, and as citizens, and people in the community, we should be involved in that discussion, because it's gonna affect every single person one way or the other, you may be somebody that relies on some of these programs that the county's gonna start talking about, you know, the budgets, and maybe cutting, and that type of stuff, so that's why we come here and tell you, hey, be educated, we're letting you know, they're coming up with this commission meeting to start talking about the budget, and this one's gonna involve cut, and they discuss that in accounting, what they're gonna be cutting, how they're gonna be cutting, which is smarter way to do it, because they still have time, right, so I think, you know, we're going a good direction, exactly, and here we are, Diwai Naples, we would like to educate you and everybody else, instead of cutting budgets, and you know, raising taxes, why we don't just spend a little bit more money with our local businesses, because we keep them, keep them in business, and today, you know, actually yesterday, Friday, seasonal week, or in our case, two weeks of restaurant dining, for $29, $39, and $49, depends what restaurant you go to, it's available to you, so you will support our local businesses, we'll keep people employed, you know, keep the money here in our community, local taxes going into the coffer, we don't have to raise the taxes, because we just naturally, stimulating the economy, that's what it is, that's exactly right, and you brought, that's the key point right there, so if we learn this right now, we don't have to worry about it later, right, and you know, we're gonna go as far as a school district has enough money to, you know, still have teachers, and have kids in the school safe, and learning the right things, and EMS being available to come to your house quickly, because they have a full tank of gas, proper funding, yeah, proper funding, so keep this in mind, because I think it's very important, and I'm really excited that our leaders in the county are taking initiatives, and they start already, you know, this conversation, because they can, they can see the devil on the wall, yeah, the handwriting's on the wall, baby, because that's coming, no matter what, and it's the day of reckoning, they call it, and we have a lot of programs that we are preparing, one of them is, for example, Divine Naples Club, that will be just for residents of Collier County, and once you prove your residence, there's gonna be a lot of benefits you're gonna be getting, so we wanna, you know, we're gonna participate in it, we're gonna be somehow leaders into this movement as well, so you know, just keep eye on our profile, social media, website, and on EARS on this podcast, we will bring everything to your ears, yes, so that's what I have to say about community budget, you know, budgeting, and being a community, we have 23 websites in 18 languages, so you can find a lot of information that we are passionately putting together, now, that would be the most serious stone, right, and now, since it's Saturday, and you're stuffing your face, I think we should, what else is new, yeah, we should stick to food, yeah, yeah, that's, why not, yeah, that's what everybody does this weekend, right, everybody's out, you know, dining, finding dining, they only ask two crazy people, you know, sitting here, well, we're finding a way to do it here, yeah, that's true, right, we always find a way, we do, so we don't left, where there's a will, there's a way, there's no left behind, even if we call in for takeout, so I just, you know, I have nine food dishes, signature food dishes, they are so symbolic for Florida, you have ideas, oh yeah, let me start with this, I'm gonna name them, and you give me an idea of what you think about it, okay, how about this, all right, key lime pie, oh, that is a signature of Florida, and it is probably my favorite tart dish, the key lime pie is so tart, and I just love the way it's made, and there's such a different variety, different, you can get that just about at any restaurant in southwest Florida, you know, I mean, it's a staple, bro, that's the dessert of the state, right, that, I mean, that's true, and you know what's interesting about this, this was invented in Key West, in the beginning of 19th century, before even a refrigerator was invented, what did they put in it to keep it, I mean, I'm just saying, you know, the key ingredients is pie to sweetened condensed milk, yeah, so, you know, that's just like a pickled, sugar, doesn't have to be refrigerated, yeah, exactly, yeah, just so you know, if you need to, sugar sausages, it's delicious, it's delicious, gator tails, how about that, I do, but actually, I like them better in what are called gator nuggets, or gator balls, and I like them in smaller pieces, and the way I like it, I mean, some make it and saute it and do other ways, but I like it fried, there's nothing like fried gator, and I dip my gator nuggets or balls in barbecue sauce, it's my favorite, and it is a staple, again, in Florida, it's tradition, oh, I think there's been a tradition forever, since Indians, they made them, fried them, they may just ate them differently, no, they did, they've ate it, like, I'm sure that he, he didn't have alligator sushi, did you, did you live with Indians, so, you know, no, I don't know, okay, so, you don't know, I don't know, but I want to know, because we're supposed to know everything, I know, I mean, you, you pretend, like, you know, right, but maybe they do it, like, we do marshmallows, maybe they put it on a stick and roast it over the fire, that's exactly how you would do it, with sausage, yeah, let me just correct you, I mean, you always pretend, like, you know, but I'm here to make you look like you don't know, but I know, right, yeah, and to make me look, you know, like, like, you don't know, I don't know, you're right, yeah, so, Indians were always doing it, but these days, it's kind of hard to access, or get access to this food, because it's only during the open hunting season, and people that hunt for alligators need to have a license, so it's a little bit more sophisticated, but they, from the tail, there's the pieces on the top of the tail that are used for this, you know, this delicatessen, and it's only during the certain, you know, months of the year, so unless you freeze it, then you're probably gonna have it fresh, exactly, in some of the places and restaurants, there's not many of them around, but it tastes like a chicken, yeah, everything tastes like chicken, although I never say that, because gator tastes like gator to me, yeah, well, it tastes like chicken, all right, everything tastes like cabbage, do you know what that is? No, and it's, I just learned today, so we're in the know, why don't you share that with me? It's called Heart of Palm, and it's been eaten for hundreds of years, the leaves of the branches of the palm were used to construction ever, historically known for being part of the many early folks, in fact, one group of early Americans was able to repel British army attacks because of really, yeah, so part of the palm that used for construction, they also eat and they make, you know, oh, that's right, it's, they have it in cans, right? Yeah, yeah, so that's, that's, you know, the palm is all around us, we just don't know which one it is, I know, and that's just, you know, I guess back to Indians, yeah, game, there you go, conch fritters, oh, I love crunk fritters, and those things are fried also, did you know what they call that? Escargot of Florida, that's right, because the actual meat is actually a snail, most people probably wouldn't eat it if they'd known that, but usually it's chopped up and put in a fritter, a batter and fried, it's delicious, you ever had it? I don't think so, because I don't eat seafood, I don't play the balls, and I don't watch TV, would you like me to bring it so you can try it one time, it's more like a hush puppy, let me bring it, you can have it, okay, no, I don't, I don't eat seafood, well I love them, and whenever I have a go to a restaurant that has them, I try to make that my appetizer, the dish originates from Bahamas, but it's, it transfers to the kivas, that's where it starts, you know, spreading north from there, so it just gives you an idea, fried green tomatoes, oh I love it, you ever seen that movie, no, which movie, it's a movie, fried green tomatoes, but anyway, they're delicious, you ever had those, you don't like fried food, no, I don't eat much, you eat fried chicken though, well the chicken tenders, you eat fried chicken too, not much, if I bring fried chicken here to you, you're gonna eat it, I'm gonna get you Popeyes, I don't think I've ever had it, yeah, well I think I'll bring you some Popeyes, you might like it, I'm not a big Kentucky fried chicken fan, well we're gonna talk about it today, remind me, okay, yeah, all right, when we're gonna go into the national days, something important you need to know, okay, public subs, that's really interesting, yeah, you know what, I really like their bread, because bread is a sandwich, and we are, we were able to even make better sandwich with our ciabatta bread, oh yeah, and we're getting, we're getting actually, reviews, I mean a lot of people just love our sandwiches, because the ciabatta bread comes out crispy, so crispy, and we balanced all these flavors, you know, we have, strategically, yeah, we have mustards, we have tomato, greens, pickles, European pickles, meat, cheese on the sandwich, I mean, you know, we just balanced it so nicely, the sandwich from Publix is good, but it's just, I think, too big, and also, you know, there's just a lot of bread in it, right, and our sandwich is not that much bread, but it's more crispier, so it's more like a baguette, crispier type of thing, and I just love our ciabatta, I love the little charred bit a bit on it, it's just, the flavor is great, yeah, well, then we invite people, oysters, yep, and then we have a lot of oyster bars around here, Pelican Larry's is known for it, I'm not a big raw oyster fan, I like them fried, and I like them on bread, yeah, well, a sandwich, a poor boy, somebody just posted something on the social media, how they were trying to eat oysters, and they see these little maggots coming through it, after they put lemon on it, I never had oysters, I don't like them, so if you are going for oysters, be careful, make sure you don't get it because they are raw, so it could be a lot of parasites and a lot of bacteria, so just be careful, you know, it could be a problem. Strawberry shortcake, yes, well, what do you tell me? I love it, you don't like it? I like it, I like the cake, it's usually a shortbread cake, little round circle, some people make them scratch, you can buy them in grocery stores, and you just cut up your strawberries, you can add a little syrup to it if you like, to make it a little sweeter, I like to just have mine fresh with the strawberry juice, and then whipped cream, now I would love to have your special German whipped cream on one of those, and a little touch for me is to sprinkle a little bit of nuts on top of it, that's my own personal way of doing strawberry shortcake, but I love it. Great idea, but you know what, it's really interesting to know that strawberry shortcake came from Florida, and it's from town that is called Plant City, and it's the smallest town in Helzberg County, about 15 minutes from Tampa, and they produce 15 % of the strawberries sold in the United States.

Yeah, we're headed towards, you know, seasonal weather, it's getting lower and lower, I mean, it's still pretty hot, my friend, during the day, but that's gonna start cooling down, well, that's gonna be so nice, just open windows and then we also see that that hurricane is out there, still, but they said it slowed down a little bit and so they're hoping that it's just gonna curve back up into the Atlantic, slow down a little bit yesterday, yeah, now, five miles an hour, yeah, back to the speed, it's picked up another five, uh -oh, but it is supposed to kind of turn it back into the Atlantic, right, until they throw the spaghetti on the wall, we really don't know, yeah, we don't know, I wish they'd throw some meatballs into that spaghetti, but the speed they said is back to 160, yesterday was from 160, that's crazy, so we are back from, you know, two days ago, so, doesn't know what it's doing, I think it's like driving with your wife, you know, it's just like, have you ever drove with your ex -wife when she said something, both of them, did she ever upset you and, and, you know, this is, you never drove like that, I tried to make sure that she never drove, I learned that in the army, right, when we, when you were out of the bunker, yeah, hold on, let me just give you another Iron Curtain story, they're the, they're the, my favorite of the day now, so, uh, we were, hold on, we were probably in the army for two weeks, you know, very fresh, you still don't know what, everything smells different, you still don't know what's going on, you know, they cut your hair, you have no hair, just look like a little, like, you know, freshly born, the little dog baby, yeah, and you just, you stick the head out of the bed, it goes like, what is today, you know, you just have no idea, so every day there was a surprise, so two weeks in, they just like, uh, you know, sound the alarm, everybody full gear, and they loaded us in this, uh, you know, very sophisticated army vehicles, you know, yeah, that has absolutely, absolutely no, uh, springs or any type of, you know, uh, no shock absorbers raining, no, no suspension, so you feel little stones on, on everything, so we're going in the road, and, uh, of course, you know, the, in the cabin, there were three seats only, and, uh, you know, the older soldiers, now we're gonna sit in the, in the, on the back, which we called pig house, you know, we call it pig house, like when you're transferring pigs to slaughterhouse, that's where you put them, that's where you guys were going, so the Russian front, so you're sitting, right, so you're sitting, uh, on a bench, very, like, a very nicely cushioned bench, which was jested from piece of wood, and you have all the gear on you, right, heavy, and now imagine you're sitting, uh, on a side, uh, towards front, so you don't, you don't sit, like, in the bus, like, facing front, right, right, you're sitting on the side, so we get out of the army base, and that soldier, that older soldier, no exactly, because they did same thing to him, when he was there, yeah, but he experienced it, and I learned it, and I later on did it to my ex -wife, she really liked that, you know, you hazed your own ex -wife, I was giving her the army special, you know, just the treatment, all the time, so she did something wrong, I just, so, so what he did, all the soldiers, like, he pressed the pedal, like, to the ground, right, the truck, it takes, like, maybe half a second to pick up, right, the speed, so just, like, move forward, and then he let it go, and press the brake, and just stop, and he did it, like, maybe 15, 20 times, some guys start puking, because they couldn't, like, you're sitting side to side, right, and you're hitting each other with this heavy gear, you got car sickness, yeah, yeah, so, you know, that's what, uh, I did to my ex -wife, oh, you're horrible, so when she was, you know, just, uh, the, you know, I'm, I'm, wouldn't it have been just better to be, do it my way, just don't let her drive, no, I was driving my ex -wife, when she was telling her where to go, and what to do, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm surprised the airbag didn't explode, oh my gosh, you know, she was really close with the face to the dashboard, it's not better than my friend from England, you know, what he did to his ex -wife, no, well, she started, I think, she got upset one day, because he forgot they had the tickets to the theater, and he came, uh, you know, what do you call it, uh, socially tired, he came from this, uh, place called restaurant, you know, after work, he worked for socially gathering, yeah, and he came home socially tired, right, yeah, so, uh, he didn't want to go to the theater, he went to social gathering, he didn't want to go, he was tired, I don't want to go anywhere, well, after a few beers, he got really tired, right, so he came home, yeah, she started yelling at him that they have to go, and they have to take shower and everything, and he's, you know, kind of like, I'm not going, and all this, so, right, he said it was so much fire in the house, that he had to dress himself, and all these things, and then when he was opening the door for her to get, uh, you know, seated in the car, he slammed the door when her hand was still between the doors, did he do it on purpose, oh my god, I guess we're staying home, so he saw her hand still holding when she was getting in the car, still telling him stuff, so he just shut the door, said we end up in the ER, I told her I don't want to go to the theater, oh, I'm surprised he didn't push her back in the car and say drive yourself to the emergency room, but yes, call me when you're, so next time, get all fixed up, when your wife is telling you stuff in the car, you just pretend you're in the army, press the pedal, gas, brake, gas, brake, and if that doesn't work, slam her hand in the door, that's the treatment, uh, but that would be the, that would be definitely, that'd be the extreme, yeah, well we're getting to our segment, which is our favorite segment of, uh, I'm thinking of it, it is my favorite segment, what do you call it, uh, decades, yeah, it is, it's of the century, maybe, we've been doing this for five years, but we just started this segment last week, but I love it for five years, I do too, I love this segment for whole five years, yeah, because it is what it is, and what is this segment, we know everything that the guy who knows everything doesn't know, so there you go, that's right, and if we, if we don't know it, we'll, we'll give the answer later, yeah, we will know it, there will be time, eventually, yeah, yeah, we will get to know it, because we're, we're on the mission on, on the know, it, I love I do too, yeah, so the idea is just to bring the news around the town, the Southwest Florida, what's going on, so you, your life is a little bit more educated, so you know, these days, there are fact checkers, and all kind of different things that are providing us from finding out what really is happening, so that's why Matt and I are dedicated, we eat cake over here, drink coffee, get fed, we have little doors, so I mean, this is, there's a situation we may not gonna get out of the studio one day, but for now, we, we are able to exit, so you know, if you're listening, you may be smarter, because, yeah, because you get all kinds of information, yeah, I mean, can I give you a couple, a little bit of information you got over a couple of decades? 1960, Yeah, oil is gone in 10 years, let me give you another one, 1970s was the ice age in 10 years, so we're gonna, that kind of didn't happen, 1980s, acid rain will destroy all crops in 10 years, what's the deal with 10 years, the 90s, the ozone layer will be gone in 10 years, what year is it right now, Rich? Did it start already? I guess, and then 2000 ice caps will be gone in 10 years, so when that started, that started in 2000, well, I think, I think Al Gore need to come back and explain that to us, so what we want to do is give you news that you can use in 10 years, oh, I love it, yeah, so let me just start with this, interesting fact that happened in Ecolier County and commissioners, they actually, I guess, start thinking, you know, what to do and how to, how to, maybe they use the crystal ball, how to plan the future here, yeah, maybe, and we've been preaching this for a while, we were always saying, yes, we were, Diva and Aprils, you know, we want to bring communities together because whatever, it's gonna be day, and it's not far, but federal government is gonna be thinking, we don't have much money left, what we're gonna do and how we're gonna distribute it, maybe we're just gonna skip some of the states and states gonna say, hey, we didn't get money, so some of the counties, and this is how it's gonna go, and counties to the cities and so on and so forth, so, all the way down to the local government, you have to realize that one day you're gonna have to be your own doctor, your own, you know, lawyer, and your own gardener, and your own everything, so let's just start practicing this, let's be independent, it's like our own community, and we're coming up with solutions, our own solutions as a community and coming together, and that's what we're all about, building community, and budgets obviously are a big part of that, and we live in Collier County, I believe the greatest county in all of Florida, that's my own opinion, but now you're gonna share some information about what's going on, I mean, we have some serious issues that we're gonna have to deal with, and this, let me say this, and we get there, okay, there's two things that could happen, you either gotta cut budgets to balance the budget, or you need to raise taxes to pay for that stuff, and we can do both, you can do both, but the real thing would be is to take an assessment and find out what we really need, what programs, where we can realistically cut the budget, and the federal government is in debt, we're all in debt, and they're gonna have to finally come to grips that you just can't spend yourself into wealth, and they're gonna have to make cuts, and the way they're gonna make cuts is doing exactly what you said, they're gonna cut their funds to the states and say, you guys are now responsible for that, and where are we gonna make up the shortcomings on that, is two things like you said both, either we're gonna cut the budgets, or we're gonna raise taxes, and as citizens, and people in the community, we should be involved in that discussion, because it's gonna affect every single person one way or the other, you may be somebody that relies on some of these programs that the county's gonna start talking about, you know, the budgets, and maybe cutting, and that type of stuff, so that's why we come here and tell you, hey, be educated, we're letting you know, they're coming up with this commission meeting to start talking about the budget, and this one's gonna involve cut, and they discuss that in accounting, what they're gonna be cutting, how they're gonna be cutting, which is smarter way to do it, because they still have time, right, so I think, you know, we're going a good direction, exactly, and here we are, Diwai Naples, we would like to educate you and everybody else, instead of cutting budgets, and you know, raising taxes, why we don't just spend a little bit more money with our local businesses, because we keep them, keep them in business, and today, you know, actually yesterday, Friday, seasonal week, or in our case, two weeks of restaurant dining, for $29, $39, and $49, depends what restaurant you go to, it's available to you, so you will support our local businesses, we'll keep people employed, you know, keep the money here in our community, local taxes going into the coffer, we don't have to raise the taxes, because we just naturally, stimulating the economy, that's what it is, that's exactly right, and you brought, that's the key point right there, so if we learn this right now, we don't have to worry about it later, right, and you know, we're gonna go as far as a school district has enough money to, you know, still have teachers, and have kids in the school safe, and learning the right things, and EMS being available to come to your house quickly, because they have a full tank of gas, proper funding, yeah, proper funding, so keep this in mind, because I think it's very important, and I'm really excited that our leaders in the county are taking initiatives, and they start already, you know, this conversation, because they can, they can see the devil on the wall, yeah, the handwriting's on the wall, baby, because that's coming, no matter what, and it's the day of reckoning, they call it, and we have a lot of programs that we are preparing, one of them is, for example, Divine Naples Club, that will be just for residents of Collier County, and once you prove your residence, there's gonna be a lot of benefits you're gonna be getting, so we wanna, you know, we're gonna participate in it, we're gonna be somehow leaders into this movement as well, so you know, just keep eye on our profile, social media, website, and on EARS on this podcast, we will bring everything to your ears, yes, so that's what I have to say about community budget, you know, budgeting, and being a community, we have 23 websites in 18 languages, so you can find a lot of information that we are passionately putting together, now, that would be the most serious stone, right, and now, since it's Saturday, and you're stuffing your face, I think we should, what else is new, yeah, we should stick to food, yeah, yeah, that's, why not, yeah, that's what everybody does this weekend, right, everybody's out, you know, dining, finding dining, they only ask two crazy people, you know, sitting here, well, we're finding a way to do it here, yeah, that's true, right, we always find a way, we do, so we don't left, where there's a will, there's a way, there's no left behind, even if we call in for takeout, so I just, you know, I have nine food dishes, signature food dishes, they are so symbolic for Florida, you have ideas, oh yeah, let me start with this, I'm gonna name them, and you give me an idea of what you think about it, okay, how about this, all right, key lime pie, oh, that is a signature of Florida, and it is probably my favorite tart dish, the key lime pie is so tart, and I just love the way it's made, and there's such a different variety, different, you can get that just about at any restaurant in southwest Florida, you know, I mean, it's a staple, bro, that's the dessert of the state, right, that, I mean, that's true, and you know what's interesting about this, this was invented in Key West, in the beginning of 19th century, before even a refrigerator was invented, what did they put in it to keep it, I mean, I'm just saying, you know, the key ingredients is pie to sweetened condensed milk, yeah, so, you know, that's just like a pickled, sugar, doesn't have to be refrigerated, yeah, exactly, yeah, just so you know, if you need to, sugar sausages, it's delicious, it's delicious, gator tails, how about that, I do, but actually, I like them better in what are called gator nuggets, or gator balls, and I like them in smaller pieces, and the way I like it, I mean, some make it and saute it and do other ways, but I like it fried, there's nothing like fried gator, and I dip my gator nuggets or balls in barbecue sauce, it's my favorite, and it is a staple, again, in Florida, it's tradition, oh, I think there's been a tradition forever, since Indians, they made them, fried them, they may just ate them differently, no, they did, they've ate it, like, I'm sure that he, he didn't have alligator sushi, did you, did you live with Indians, so, you know, no, I don't know, okay, so, you don't know, I don't know, but I want to know, because we're supposed to know everything, I know, I mean, you, you pretend, like, you know, right, but maybe they do it, like, we do marshmallows, maybe they put it on a stick and roast it over the fire, that's exactly how you would do it, with sausage, yeah, let me just correct you, I mean, you always pretend, like, you know, but I'm here to make you look like you don't know, but I know, right, yeah, and to make me look, you know, like, like, you don't know, I don't know, you're right, yeah, so, Indians were always doing it, but these days, it's kind of hard to access, or get access to this food, because it's only during the open hunting season, and people that hunt for alligators need to have a license, so it's a little bit more sophisticated, but they, from the tail, there's the pieces on the top of the tail that are used for this, you know, this delicatessen, and it's only during the certain, you know, months of the year, so unless you freeze it, then you're probably gonna have it fresh, exactly, in some of the places and restaurants, there's not many of them around, but it tastes like a chicken, yeah, everything tastes like chicken, although I never say that, because gator tastes like gator to me, yeah, well, it tastes like chicken, all right, everything tastes like cabbage, do you know what that is? No, and it's, I just learned today, so we're in the know, why don't you share that with me? It's called Heart of Palm, and it's been eaten for hundreds of years, the leaves of the branches of the palm were used to construction ever, historically known for being part of the many early folks, in fact, one group of early Americans was able to repel British army attacks because of really, yeah, so part of the palm that used for construction, they also eat and they make, you know, oh, that's right, it's, they have it in cans, right? Yeah, yeah, so that's, that's, you know, the palm is all around us, we just don't know which one it is, I know, and that's just, you know, I guess back to Indians, yeah, game, there you go, conch fritters, oh, I love crunk fritters, and those things are fried also, did you know what they call that? Escargot of Florida, that's right, because the actual meat is actually a snail, most people probably wouldn't eat it if they'd known that, but usually it's chopped up and put in a fritter, a batter and fried, it's delicious, you ever had it? I don't think so, because I don't eat seafood, I don't play the balls, and I don't watch TV, would you like me to bring it so you can try it one time, it's more like a hush puppy, let me bring it, you can have it, okay, no, I don't, I don't eat seafood, well I love them, and whenever I have a go to a restaurant that has them, I try to make that my appetizer, the dish originates from Bahamas, but it's, it transfers to the kivas, that's where it starts, you know, spreading north from there, so it just gives you an idea, fried green tomatoes, oh I love it, you ever seen that movie, no, which movie, it's a movie, fried green tomatoes, but anyway, they're delicious, you ever had those, you don't like fried food, no, I don't eat much, you eat fried chicken though, well the chicken tenders, you eat fried chicken too, not much, if I bring fried chicken here to you, you're gonna eat it, I'm gonna get you Popeyes, I don't think I've ever had it, yeah, well I think I'll bring you some Popeyes, you might like it, I'm not a big Kentucky fried chicken fan, well we're gonna talk about it today, remind me, okay, yeah, all right, when we're gonna go into the national days, something important you need to know, okay, public subs, that's really interesting, yeah, you know what, I really like their bread, because bread is a sandwich, and we are, we were able to even make better sandwich with our ciabatta bread, oh yeah, and we're getting, we're getting actually, reviews, I mean a lot of people just love our sandwiches, because the ciabatta bread comes out crispy, so crispy, and we balanced all these flavors, you know, we have, strategically, yeah, we have mustards, we have tomato, greens, pickles, European pickles, meat, cheese on the sandwich, I mean, you know, we just balanced it so nicely, the sandwich from Publix is good, but it's just, I think, too big, and also, you know, there's just a lot of bread in it, right, and our sandwich is not that much bread, but it's more crispier, so it's more like a baguette, crispier type of thing, and I just love our ciabatta, I love the little charred bit a bit on it, it's just, the flavor is great, yeah, well, then we invite people, oysters, yep, and then we have a lot of oyster bars around here, Pelican Larry's is known for it, I'm not a big raw oyster fan, I like them fried, and I like them on bread, yeah, well, a sandwich, a poor boy, somebody just posted something on the social media, how they were trying to eat oysters, and they see these little maggots coming through it, after they put lemon on it, I never had oysters, I don't like them, so if you are going for oysters, be careful, make sure you don't get it because they are raw, so it could be a lot of parasites and a lot of bacteria, so just be careful, you know, it could be a problem. Strawberry shortcake, yes, well, what do you tell me? I love it, you don't like it? I like it, I like the cake, it's usually a shortbread cake, little round circle, some people make them scratch, you can buy them in grocery stores, and you just cut up your strawberries, you can add a little syrup to it if you like, to make it a little sweeter, I like to just have mine fresh with the strawberry juice, and then whipped cream, now I would love to have your special German whipped cream on one of those, and a little touch for me is to sprinkle a little bit of nuts on top of it, that's my own personal way of doing strawberry shortcake, but I love it. Great idea, but you know what, it's really interesting to know that strawberry shortcake came from Florida, and it's from town that is called Plant City, and it's the smallest town in Helzberg County, about 15 minutes from Tampa, and they produce 15 % of the strawberries sold in the United States.

"You pause at that five number because it's the one that we've been all been watching for, especially as you get a lot of corporate bond issuances. We were just talking with Julian Emanuel of Evercore ISI and he was saying, undoubtedly, the flood of corporate bonds coming out is negative for treasuries as investors sell treasuries to make room for all this corporate credit coming on. And that kind of dictates where equities go next for today. It's clearly to the downside. And I was looking at the correlations. I mean, the correlations between treasury yield, the negative inverse correlation, actually probably the deepest that it's been for a good portion of the year here, too. So that's one of the reasons why you're seeing it. But interestingly, Julian Emanuel is saying now that could actually reverse itself as we get deeper into the rest of the year here. Let's take a look at the equity markets right now down for a second day with the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipping by about 200 points or about six tenths of a percent, the S &P 500 down about 31 points or seven tenths of a percent, while the Nasdaq composite is going to close out the day lower by about one percent. And the Russell 2000, which yesterday with the big laggard on a relative basis, a sure outperformer, though still in the red, down by three tenths of a percent. Peeling back the layers of the S &P 500, 207 stocks moving higher today, 296 stocks, Scarlett moving lower on the day. All right. Let's take a look at the sector performances here. And when we split the S &P 500 up into two dozen groups on the downside, you have tech hardware and equipment. That's really Apple dragging things lower auto and components off by one point six percent. That's Tesla. And companies, semiconductor Nvidia dragging that group down one half percent on the upside. No group has gained more than four tenths of one percent consumer durable and apparel gaining four tenths of one percent insurance and food and staples doing a little bit better. All right. Let's take a look at some of the gainers. Didn't have to look too hard to find some green, actually, a lot when it comes to medicine here. Dexcom up six point five percent on the day today. It's a medical device company that makes continuous glucose monitoring systems for people who have diabetes. This is interesting. An analyst from.
Mike Gallagher Podcast
A highlight from FULL INTERVIEW - Dr. Ashley Lucas, Founder of PHD Weight Loss & Nutrition
"Have you noticed we started calling our call -in line, the PHD weight loss and nutrition line? That was from me because I'm so committed to telling everybody who hears my voice that you can say goodbye to the unwanted pounds that you've been carrying forever. I mean I've I've fought weight for my whole life. And then my friends Joey and Peg Hudson in South Carolina started raving about something called PHD weight loss and nutrition. And I want to take just a couple of moments to bring back to the show one of my favorite people in the world. Smartest, one of the smartest people I've ever met. And she has quite a life story. Former professional dancer. There's a lot of demands on professional ballet dancers and ballerinas and what their body has to look like. And Dr. Ashley Lucas put together years of education in nutrition and metabolism to come up with PHD weight loss and nutrition. And I gotta brag on it some more. Dr. Ashley, welcome back to the show. I see you're in the Dr. Ashley show studios. Your YouTube channel, the Dr. Ashley show is doing great I hear. It is. It's been so much fun. I've helped with the YouTube channel and now we are pulling that into a podcast template forum so that people can hear it while they're driving or wherever they might. You know, Dr. Ashley, when I talk about PHD weight losses taking the country by storm, it's true. We're going to Israel this fall and there's a bunch of people from the upstate of South Carolina who are going. I think there's 15 or 16 people just from the upstate who are going to go on the Prager Gallagher trip. Of that group, four of them just began PHD. It's so neat to hear people who are enthusiastic. I meet people everywhere I go. Last event I had in San Diego, a guy walks up to me and he says, Mike, thanks to you and PHD weight loss and nutrition. I lost 67 pounds and the guy looked great. He was about a 50 year old man. He looked absolutely fit. It's amazing. The beauty of PHD and that's why I can't brag on this program enough and I want to keep talking with you as much as you're willing to come on the show. First of all, you're not hungry so there's not a severe caloric restriction and you don't go through crazy exercise routines. I know people who literally wipe themselves out trying to exercise their way into significant weight loss and that doesn't really work, does it? No, it doesn't. We've talked about this a lot on this show, but the body is much more complicated than calories in and calories out and really what we want to do is target the belly fat. The belly fat, those fat cells that are in your belly secrete these hormones and there are these hormones that cause inflammation in the body, which results in joint pain and skin irritation and type two diabetes and cardiovascular disease. All of these negative health consequences and these fat cells also make you crave and make you hungry and weight gain really isn't your fault. It has nothing to do with you. It's all dependent upon this hormonal situation that's occurring in the belly fat and so when you think about dropping weight and exercise and calories really and what we want to do is we want to target a way to change the metabolism so that your body is fat. And so through that, when we look at the type of exercise that create impact, it's really not that chronic cardio, the type of exercise where you get on the elliptical machine and you just keep going and going and try to burn as many calories as possible. When you're looking at exercise, it's really about the functional way that the movement is working in the body and how it's tackling the fat cells specifically. So we want to focus on lifting something heavy resistance training, not enough to cause any type of injury, but enough where it really gets the body burning fat. So lifting something heavy, whatever that means to you and then some kind of intensity interval training and this doesn't have to be lengthy. It doesn't have to be anything too strenuous for sure. Dr. Ashley Lucas, the founder of PHD Weight Loss and Nutrition is joining us from the Dr. Ashley Studios. You're not going to want to miss her podcast, her YouTube channel. You can find everything by going to drashleyshow .com. Dr. Ashley show .com and I want to do something. I'm going to throw you a little bit of a curveball Dr. Ashley, but I know you can take it. I get questions all the time about my journey on PHD Weight Loss. I want to open up our phone lines to anybody who has a question for you or me about the program. So 800 -655 -MIKE because after all it is now the PHD Weight Loss and Nutrition phone line. Thank you very much. So we need to brand it properly and I want to roll out the official naming rights that you now have on our call -in line by inviting people to use the PHD Weight Loss and Nutrition line with any question you might have about the PHD program, what it means, what it takes.

Mike Gallagher Podcast
A highlight from The Incompetence Of Biden & Kamala Harris Is Stunningly Apparent
"This is your source for breaking news and what to make of it all. This is the Mike Gallagher Show. We always ask people, who do you want to see be the 2024 nominee? And six months ago, Ron DeSantis, he would always come up. He was the first one. If it wasn't Trump, it was him. People don't even mention it right now. They're not your kids, Joe. I'm sorry. And it also took you four and a half years to even acknowledge your own granddaughter in Arkansas. And we really could see Trump and maybe even up to a dozen other people face charges early this week. Now, from the ReliefFactor .com studios, here's Mike Gallagher. What a weekend. The Iowa State Fair. We want Trump. The crowd went wild as Ron DeSantis was literally overshadowed by Trump at the Iowa State Fair. You know, I'm going to say this, I've been saying it over and over again, and some people give me grief for it. In fact, Barbara came up to me at the event in San Diego the other night and said that she wanted me to be all in for Trump and I'm not supportive enough of Trump, which is news to me since I always get criticized for being too far in the tank for President Trump. But I'm sorry, I'm not going to deceive you or pretend that DeSantis is being treated really unfairly. Are you listening to him? Are you paying attention to what he says, what he offers? I believe that he should have waited until 2028. And I would dream of a Trump DeSantis ticket in 2024. But everything DeSantis says is exactly what America wants from a president. He's being treated really, really unfairly. Not a whole lot around that. And let's face it, if Biden is the nominee, I don't want to jinx this, but anybody should be able to beat him. Did you hear what he said over the weekend about the wildfires in Hawaii? Now this has been a devastating event. Thousands and thousands and thousands of people have lost everything. That one historic town is completely wiped out. People were jumping into the into the ocean to escape the flames. It's just a hellscape, right? So there's Biden on the beach again, again, man lives on the beach. He's only been on vacation in the two and a half years or so that he's been president about 40 weeks. Hey, Derek, would you get me a fact check on that for me, please? I want to get the exact amount of vacation time that Grandpa Joe has been taking since he was sworn into office after the spectacularly efficient and effective and pristine election of 2020, where nothing went wrong and people just revolted and a record amount of votes for the guy who never left his basement, who never campaigned, Joe Biden. Let's find out just exactly how many weeks of vacation he's been gone. Well, I'll get you that number in just a moment. But I want to play this clip of you because I saw this report on social media from a Bloomberg reporter covering Biden. And the reporter said Justin Sink from Bloomberg reported after a couple of hours on the Rehoboth, Delaware beach, Biden was asked about the rising death toll in Hawaii. No comment, he said, before heading home. I thought there's no way there's no way he can't be that out of it. He can't be that cruel. He can't be that detached. He can't be that addled. There's no way he's going to give a no comment to a reporter asking about the death toll in Hawaii. Now, this video and audio is a little hard to hear. Adam's going to crank it up as loud as he can. But there is video evidence of Biden's callousness. Will you come talk about the Hawaii response, Mr. President? He stood there. Any comment about the rising death toll in in Maui? And he said, no, no comment and walked away. No comment in his golf shirt with his stupid baseball cap on after he stumbled around the I'm beach. going to get a number here in just a moment. I want you to, I'm going to fact, I'll get a fact check here on how many weeks he's been on vacation. I know it's been almost half the time he's spent in office. Unbelievable. So Trump or DeSantis or Vivek or whoever it's going to be is going to be able to get on the debate stage and say, do you plan to work in your next term? Three hundred and fifty two days. He's been on vacation. Three hundred and fifty two days. I'm just going to divide this up as 50 weeks, 50. I thought it was 40. He's been on vacation for 50 with not 15, 50, 50 weeks. I mean, gosh, no wonder Eric Hanson was gone for two solid weeks. He's following a page from the Joe Biden playbook. You know, hey, if you're going to if you're going to go big or go home, forget this couple of days off at a time, take two weeks off, take four. Next time, Eric's going to take four weeks off instead of two. And Eric, too, has to go to the beach. Everybody needs like beach time. Everybody needs like mental health clearance time. Cars don't work. Stay home. OK. Guess Uber doesn't work. I guess Uber doesn't. I'm telling you what, the whole world's going crazy. If everybody around you is going nuts. What do you do about it? And of course, my wife always used to say, maybe it's not them, Mike. Maybe it's not them. Speaking of family, many thanks to everybody who's been praying for my son, Trevor. He had a surgery the other day when I was out in San Diego for our big event out there. Trevor had his toes amputated on his right foot because of his diabetes, who is always the cruel irony that Trevor is the athletic fit one that really just doesn't seem fair. You know, he loves to be he's very, very physical, very athletic, very active. They thought they were going to amputate his foot because of an infection that he got in his in his foot. Instead, they just amputated the toes. He says he's doing great. I talked to him a lot over the weekend, talked to him late last night. He said, Dad, it's the weirdest thing that phantom pain they talk about is real because my toes hurt. And he goes, I don't have any toes on that right foot. And of course, he sent me some videos and pictures. And I tried to be the strong dad without, you know, fainting as he's showing me his new foot. But he's a tough, tough young man and he's a warrior. And I am absolutely grateful for the prayers and the warm wishes that I've gotten from so many people for our family. His older brother is there. Brian's taking care of him. His daughter, Lily, is taking care of him. My other son, Matthew, is going into Minneapolis today to take care of him. So many, many, many, many thanks to the prayers for Trevor Gallagher. Of course, yep, he's the same one that had the car accident. Listen, when you see the car that he was driving when he was in the head on collision, do we still have that video, that picture that we can send out? Isn't it car at 800 -655 -MIKE? And you send and we'll send you back the picture of the car that Trevor was in, the head on crash in Arlington, what was that, a year ago, year and a half ago? And I knew with all the challenges he's had with diabetes, he was in this terrible car accident and he broke his legs, his knees. I mean, he had, gosh, he was banged up. Poor kid was banged up big time. I say kid, young man, what is he, 40 now. But lucky to be alive. But I remember after when I went to the hospital the day after his accident, I was thinking, gosh, I hope to heck he does not have further complications with his diabetes as a result of the accident.

So if you send the keyword car to the MyPillow text line, which is 800 -655 -MIKE, you'll get a picture back of the car that Trevor was driving. He was in a head on collision. He's going about 50 miles an hour. How he survived that thing, I mean, I see that car and I just get a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach again. The car caught on fire. I mean, he literally had to break out of the door and crawl out on his badly broken legs. Both of his legs were shattered pretty badly.

"And it is important to treat those things where they can get worse with time. Thanks. That's really good to know and a question that sometimes people don't want to talk about, but is important because it can be the first sign sometimes that people have that something needs to be checked out. And also, if there's any excess sweating that's involved, which is not uncommon in the palms and the souls, there can be treatments available to help to prevent that. And there are some certain measures you can take to prevent that from causing any odors. What about people that are very active perhaps athletes or people that maybe exercising for long periods of time and do sweat in their feet or maybe have moisture that accumulates there? Are there any special precautions that you recommend for those individuals? I usually recommend using a type of moisture wicking material in your sock or using a simple cotton or a wool. I always recommend also keeping an extra pair of socks on hand if you know that your feet are going to sweat so that you can change out of a wet sock and into a dry sock to help to limit that amount of moisture that's exposed to the feet. In terms of the shoes, using just a simple over the counter antifungal spray in the shoe can help to prevent the growth of these things. If your shoe is a moist environment, which commonly shoes can be. So do people who are very active or athletic. You know who work out a lot? Are they more prone to develop injuries in the foot because of diabetes? And I wonder if you could briefly talk about charcot's foot as well, since we haven't really talked about that. So yes, tendonitis tendinopathies essentially any kind of disease of the tendon or disorder of the tendon that can cause you pain, discomfort or affect your ability to go about your daily life can be more calm and can be worsened by diabetes. It can cause stiffening of the collagen materials that form the tendons in the first place. And also the decreased circulation to the tendons, which is so important in their ability to heal and to stay healthy, can affect all of those things and can lead to pain in certain large tendons and small tendons and can lead to sometimes disability as a result of that. So really if you experience something like that, it's very important to see your provider rapidly so that you can start treatment before this progresses to something that could be a severe as a tendon rupture and someone like a weekend athlete, such as the Achilles tendon rupture, which is not uncommon in weekend athletes without diabetes. So you can good treatment as soon as you get a degree of pain in your foot is a really good important management measure that you can take. Sometimes just getting you into physical therapy and ice and earlier putting together a therapeutic regimen for you can help to get that better quickly. But these things do respond a little bit more slowly in patients with diabetes for the same reasons. In charcoal foot, is that something that's more common in people with diabetes? Charcoal foot is an unfortunate and fortunately not as common complication of diabetes in the literature it's reported anywhere from less than 1% of the population all the way up to roughly 9%. It does vary based on geography and demographics slightly. Charcoal foot is essentially breakdown of the architecture of the fun of the normal bony arcs that you normally are used to seeing when you look at a foot. As a result of either neuropathy or circulation or a little bit of both that causes those joints to collapse and fall apart a little bit. And it can lead to deformity of the foot in such a way that you can get very serious ulcers on the bottom of the feet that often lead to surgery and possibly amputation on occasion..

"Help <Speech_Male> <SpeakerChange> <Silence> <Speech_Female> to take <Speech_Male> moisture away <Speech_Male> from the skin itself. <Speech_Male> And now some <Speech_Male> synthetic materials <Speech_Male> have been added <Speech_Male> into diabetic <Speech_Male> socks that <Speech_Male> can help to with moisture <Speech_Male> away as well. Moisture control is <Speech_Male> important in patients with <Speech_Male> diabetes because they are <Speech_Male> more predisposed to getting <Speech_Male> things like an athlete's <Speech_Male> foot or a toenail fungus. <Speech_Male> So those <Speech_Male> are really important. The <Speech_Male> other things that most diabetic <Speech_Male> socks will <Speech_Male> have a level of <Speech_Male> is a gentle <Speech_Male> compression which <Speech_Male> can help to assist <Speech_Male> with swelling of the legs <Speech_Male> and the ankles. <SpeakerChange> Patients <Silence> will sometimes experience. <Speech_Female> So <Speech_Female> it sounds like in general <Speech_Male> these could be useful. <Speech_Male> Is that right? <Speech_Male> Absolutely. I've never <Speech_Male> recommended against <Speech_Female> a diabetic sock. <Speech_Female> <Speech_Female> That's good to know. <Speech_Female> What <Speech_Female> about toenails? Is <Speech_Female> there anything about <Speech_Female> toenails as <Speech_Female> people are <Speech_Female> clipping their <SpeakerChange> own meals <Speech_Female> at home or <Speech_Female> do you recommend <Speech_Female> that they get a <Speech_Female> clipped by a podiatrist <Speech_Female> <SpeakerChange> that <Speech_Male> people should know about? <Speech_Male> Toenails <Speech_Male> can be very challenging <Speech_Male> to clip, especially <Speech_Male> in people who <Speech_Male> have thickening of the <Speech_Male> toenails, <Speech_Male> brittleness of the toenails <Speech_Male> or people <Speech_Male> with just can't get <Speech_Male> down to their toenails, have <Speech_Male> mobility issues and <Speech_Male> just can't get there <Speech_Male> the way they used to. <Speech_Male> The risk obviously <Speech_Male> would be injury <Speech_Male> to the foot itself. <Speech_Male> And the skin by <Speech_Male> trying to care for your nails <Speech_Male> at home. Now, <Speech_Male> as a rule, if <Speech_Male> you are a diabetic, you <Speech_Male> are <Speech_Male> increased risk of infection <Speech_Male> just by virtue <Speech_Male> of the fact that you <Speech_Male> have impaired <Speech_Male> blood sugar, <Speech_Male> but general <Speech_Male> nail care can be <Speech_Male> very safe <Speech_Male> if there's not significant <Speech_Male> deformity of the <Speech_Male> nail and appropriate <Speech_Male> techniques are used. <Speech_Male> So if there's ever <Speech_Male> question, I <Speech_Male> always recommend that my <Speech_Male> diabetic patients <Speech_Male> will schedule an appointment <Speech_Male> with their podiatrists <Speech_Male> just to go over <Speech_Male> appropriate nail care. <Speech_Male> Now, there are certain <Speech_Male> settings in <Speech_Male> which I will advise <Speech_Male> my patients <Speech_Male> not to care for their <Speech_Male> own nails at home, <Speech_Male> something like <Speech_Male> arterial insufficiency <Speech_Male> or <Speech_Male> decreased blood <Speech_Male> flow to the toes, <Speech_Male> something that <Speech_Male> if the skin were <Speech_Male> nicked when you're caring <Speech_Male> for your nails <Speech_Male> with the wound be able to <Speech_Male> heal or is it <Speech_Male> more likely to get infected <Speech_Male> and cause a problem <Speech_Male> in patients with <Speech_Male> that, I recommend <Speech_Male> they come visit me <Speech_Male> for their routine <Speech_Male> mail care so that <Speech_Male> I can help them with that <Speech_Male> procedure. <Speech_Male> Patients with neuropathy <Speech_Male> at the

"Be subtle when it comes on. Even things as simple as checking the feet wearing slippers in the house and not walking barefoot are basic precautionary measures to take even if you don't have complications related to your diabetes and you are well controlled because they're simple things that can be done that can prevent worse things from happening. And it sounds like those symptoms as you describe can deteriorate gradually. So you may not know as the symptoms of sensation that that's occurring. Yeah, that's exactly right, and that's exactly why I bring my patients back for a diabetic foot exams at regular intervals so that we can monitor these things for deterioration. For those people that do have neuropathy or poor circulation, you mentioned, in general, the importance of good fitting shoes. Could you talk a little bit more about what you mean by that? What kinds of specifications should people look for when they're buying their shoes? So a good fitting show is important in any patient with diabetes because if you aren't able to appreciate or feel the fit of the shoe as well and neuropathy does happen to occur in the toes more frequently than the rest of the foot. And if it's early, it will begin in the toes classically. The toes can be injured by the front of a shoe. If there's a seam on the top of the shoe, if there's any deformity, such as a bunion or a hammer toe that might rub on the shoe, or if the foot slides around in the shoe because it is not fitted well, it can cause irritation. It can cause ingrown toenail, which can then become infected. And it can cause friction injuries or pressure injuries that can lead to ulcers and infections. So an appropriately fitted shoe is critically important for those reasons. And often diabetic shoes, which is one of the programs that's offered by most insurance companies and Medicare for patients who have complications and need more advanced types of shoe gear. It's a benefit this offer to.

"We often say that diabetes self management really is the cornerstone for people with diabetes, managing what they eat, their exercise, their medications, all the things that go into good self management behavior. But I think that the emphasis on inspecting fee really is something that we could probably do a better job at relaying to patients. When you say inspect fee, what do you mean by that as a podiatrist? What would you recommend a person at home look for when they're looking at their feet? That could be of concern that they should then.

"Foot problems or is it only those that have complications like you described? Everyone at baseline does have an increased risk of developing complications by virtue of the fact of being diabetic. However, those who develop complications, whether they be a result of longer periods of hyperglycemia or the sugar's been high for a long time. Those are more likely to develop something like a foot ulcer or an amputation than someone who is very well controlled. And when you talk about foot ulcer, do you mean input infection? Also is a simple term that just refers to a wound or an open area of the skin on the foot. Roughly up to one in four patients with diabetes will experience one of those in their lifetime. Infection is an entirely different type of thing that can happen as a result of an open ulceration when bacteria get in. And that brings it up to a more serious event that requires more prompt management. You know, I often hear patients when they're diagnosed with diabetes for the first time. Worry about having an amputation of their limb or losing a toe. How commonly does that happen now in the United States? Amputation in diabetic patients is not extremely common, however, it is not unheard of happening, particularly in patients who have poorly controlled diabetes or patients who are not consistently caring for their feet in the appropriate recommended way or maintaining their appropriate follow-ups with their providers to help to keep their feet safe from complications such as all serving infection and amputation. Would you say it's fair to emphasize the importance of prevention then in trying to prevent foot ulcers and then prevent amputations in routine care? And how would you describe preventative methods for people with diabetes? What would you usually recommend? Absolutely. And I think with diabetes preventative measures are really the best way to prevent these complications from happening. And it can severely limit the risk of amputation infection ulceration just by following some simple guidelines to keep the feet protected from injury, especially in the setting of vascular disease or neuropathy or numbness in the feet. So some of the basic guidelines is what I kind of tell every one of my patients when I meet them for the first time when they are referred for diabetic foot exam. The first and foremost you need to check your feet every single day. That's something that seems very simple to do and is a no brainer, but you'd be surprised. There are some times when people want to unfortunately come in with an ulcer. And I will be the first person to see it and they will not even be aware that it is there because of numbness and other limiting factors. So checking the feet is really one of the more important parts of routine diabetic care. Always wearing a good supportive shoe to support the architecture of the.

"I believe ACD, yes, does the same thing. There are another accrediting body who they have the same feature. I'm pretty sure where you can search your zip code, and you can find out where you can go. For diabetes self management education and support, DSMES. Is that really only for people who are newly diagnosed with the disease or can those who've had diabetes for a while, also benefit at what point in the disease course do you recommend it? There are four critical times recommended by ACS, one of them being at diagnosis. So anybody who's newly diagnosed with any type of diabetes, I highly recommend that you do this because a lot of the questions that you didn't get to ask to your primary care physician, all in all likelihood, you're going to have an hour with this person. This educator, and you're going to be able to ask all the questions that you have. So I highly recommend it for newly diagnosed and you consider this. Even if you know people with diabetes, you have to remember that everybody's diabetes is different. If you're hearing things from people, you know, that might not kind of line up with what you feel might be right for you. This is definitely what you should do. Try to find a program and go. Other times, you could do this. If somebody's diabetes done control, the definition can vary, but what I would recommend if a if the A1C is over 8, I would definitely think about it. Just because your A1C is 7.9 doesn't mean you can't come. But over 8, I would definitely consider it you're new to a health system where you've recently moved. It's always prudent.

"So the services are complementary, but they're similar depending on where you receive care. They might offer one and not the other, which can be confusing, what is nutrition? What is diabetes self management training, the things overlap? That's a lot of things that can be talked about. That's a really helpful distinction to make because I imagine that some listeners might be asking, well, I see a dietitian to really talk about nutrition goals and what I'm eating. Why do I have to have another appointment to see someone for DSMT? How would you respond to that? Yeah, well, if you're wondering that, you might be right. You might not. But if somebody has well controlled diabetes, they're doing a great job with their self management and they're working on their nutrition for any reason, whether it's weight loss, whether it's another condition or maybe they have a heart condition. They're working on nutrition for that. Maybe would benefit much from seeing somebody for DSMT. Totally possible. When somebody has uncontrolled diabetes, when they're working really hard on their nutrition. I actually see this kind of often. And they're diabetes still uncontrolled. That means there's some missing links somewhere. Somebody is not identifying. And that's really where diabetes self management training can come in clutch. Because you're going to get that in depth assessment. Their job is to find out what could not be right about your regimen or what's going on with you. That is preventing you from reaching your goals despite your efforts. When important thing to consider here is if a patient or participant is being asked to put in effort and they don't see a benefit, that's a tough sell. It's going to be hard to get that patient to continue to work towards goals. If they're trying and it's not working. I think if a patient or somebody listening to this is wondering, hey, I already see a dietician, do I need this? If your diabetes is not under control yet, then you should definitely think about it..

"You have D and T, DSMES, one stands for diabetes self management training. The other stands for diabetes self management, education and support. They mean the same thing. They're interchangeable. The DSMT is more of a Medicare definition and I believe. ACV is going with the DSMES because it kind of outlines more as to what all the service can and tail. Diabetes education, diabetes self management training is a lot of ways you can praise this. I think it is important to think about the way that we label this because there's a lot of inputs that can be taken. Hoping that we can get more into the details about in the podcast about the way you explain it and then what the patient thinks, et cetera, participants. Yeah, that's really helpful for our listeners. This might not be something that they've heard of before. Is this the same as diabetes education or diabetes education classes or is this something different? The phrase diabetes education. I don't feel that strongly about it. For this reason, it implies that the person attending is possibly not educated or not educated enough, right? Or needs to go to a class. So DSMT, DSMES, what actually is it? The best way that I can describe it is it's a one on one visit initially with a certified diabetes care and education specialist. That person could have a variety of professional licenses that person could be a nurse. It could be a dietician. Could you be a social worker? If there were certified that means that this person has been trained to be an expert in the variety of content areas related to diabetes self management. That could be glucose monitoring. That could be medication management. That could be nutrition. It could be healthy coping. There's a lot of different content areas that can be included with DSMT, DSMES. It's not a class. When somebody goes to a visit like this, the initial visit is a one on one visit with a certified individual. Our program is set up in such a way where we want the patient to be able to choose how they receive care. If you want to come back and participate in a group discussion, you are welcome to do that. If you don't, then our goal is to have you not do that. There are some insurance nuances, right? Some people are covered for different types of care, depending on the insurance somebody has. It is really individualized in the sense that somebody's benefit may dictate what they can receive. One important thing to know about DST DSMES is it's a benefit that renews annually. Maybe is it a long time ago, and it wasn't that great or you didn't have a good experience that you moved or something. You have two years every year. As long as you have diabetes, it's never a bad time to try again. This pluses and minuses to the benefit. Well, that's really great to hear that everyone should have the opportunity to have at least two visits a year. So if it didn't work the first time, they can try again. Could you tell us a little bit more about what exactly is included? So if a patient comes and meets with you, what kind of topics do you cover?.

And how evolved you guys actually have a leadership aspect to your pods. How did that. We'd we'd zoo pods had been in existence for about five years in two thousand fifteen. We were like. How can we better support these leaders. There volunteer leaders and their key leaders. They're women that are out in their communities right there. Like like an equivalent of promoter and ambassador there an ambassador women that live with diabetes in their communities and so we asked them if they would come to raleigh for a weekend so that we could give them some really specific and specialized attention and we started to really invest in the leadership and so we created a leadership institute we brought in experienced speaker a specialist to talk about specific topics. But then we also talked about how to run the pods. Meet up how to recruit women how to keep them how to moderate the group if you have someone who's overtaking conversation or people that can't stay on track so we really want to invest in that development but then again also provided more information so that when members of of their community were coming to them and saying i have ational diabetes. Got know what to do then they can say okay we learned about this is a referral site or this is where you should go or if we had somebody else that said i think like my issues are beyond the diabetes right now. I think i need to talk to someone that they could said. Yes. of course you can.

You're basically there's a lot of issues that people are facing as they hit middle age and older age and it's not just Medicare. I mean, you know, but there's a lot of questions people with type 1 may have, and interestingly, I do a lot of research for this show, my listenership very dedicated older folks. Again I'm in this category now as I'm turning 50 and the month of October. But who are interested in issues pertaining to type one in their health as they get older? So I'm doing all of this to say next Tuesday the 21st JDRF has an online event that you can join in. I'm going to be doing a little bit of my in the news for this group, but it's going to be news that I have curated that is all to an older crowd. And I'm probably going to do it for 60 65 and up. I think that the insurance cut off their makes perfect sense to try to find things that work for that group, but there is a Facebook group I believe that they've started as well. So more info on that, and then later in October, we've got the sheep podcasts conference out in Scottsdale, Arizona, that's the other group that I take part in quite a bit. I'm helping them out. It's women podcasters, obviously. Big group really excited to hang out with them. And we'll see in terms of how many in person events happen in the weeks and months to come. Hopefully they start picking up again. But lots of virtual stuff going on as well. So if you want me to come speak to your group online or in person, please let me know. I'm always excited to do that. And we gear it to, you know, whoever I'm talking to parents or adults with type one, whatever you need. Thank you as always, to my editor John Buchanan from audio editing solutions. Thank.

"Diabetes, what you mentioned is the more common one, about 90 to 95% of cases, the numbers seem to rise. Is that right? What are the future projections? Is it going to continue to rise or what do you think? Yeah, it is pricing, and it's risking the whole world and it's become also an ongoing issue in low and middle income countries that we're seeing the prevalence of obesity and diabetes and other related diseases are increasing. So just shifting gears a little bit to type one diabetes. You mentioned that the mechanism, the physiology is a little different. Do we know what the risk factors are for type one diabetes? Yes, her family history is irrespective for type one diabetes. There's some association with geographical location. And then there's thought to be some environmental factors, but those have not really been well understood as of right now. When we talk about type one and type two diabetes, it helps not only to distinguish the types just to have the diagnosis, but it impacts the treatment as well as in that true. How do the treatments differ between the two types of diabetes? So for type one diabetes treatment is insulin because that underlying issue is people with type one diabetes can not make insulin in type two diabetes. People with type two diabetes generally can make insulin, but it's not as much as they need in the second issue, oftentimes with people with type two diabetes is not being able to respond as well to the insulin that they make. And so oftentimes for people with type two diabetes oral medications are an option. You know, sometimes people will come in and say they have a touch of diabetes or a borderline diabetes. What are they really talking about when they talk about that? Yeah, I mean, I think it's a spectrum. And so we think about people who don't have diabetes and there are people who are at risk of developing diabetes. And that can be ossified based on what recurs as well as a blood test called a hemoglobin A1C, which is really a test that measures or gives us information about the average blood glucose over three months. Is this the same as pre diabetes, what you're talking about? Yeah, and there are different forms of prediabetes one way to diagnose prediabetes is based on fasting workers. So fasting glucose is a certain level on two different tests or on the same test in two different occasions, second indicate prediabetes may basically telling a patient we know that person is at risk of developing diabetes. One of the things that we often talk about as well as prevention and screening for diabetes. So what do you think someone who may be concerned about their own risk for diabetes? What should they do? What would you recommend? I would definitely recommend talking to that person's primary care provider and then also giving their primary care provider information about their own family history so if there's someone has a mother or father or brother or sister with diabetes that's important for that person's primary care provider to know also that person's personal history. So does someone have a history of gestational diabetes that certainly can put a person at risk of developing diabetes in the future. So these are kind of important things to know and that history as well as examination of patients age and weight can all help our primary care provider know when to screen and how often this group that I do. So does everyone who develops prediabetes develop diabetes? Great question. So not everyone with prediabetes develops diabetes and absolutely there are things that people with pre diabetes can do to prevent developing diabetes. Those include lifestyle interventions. So if diet and exercise are important in some people, medication can be used to help prevent diabetes. What happens if someone does develop a diabetes, but they don't take care of it? Why does it even matter to take care of your disease? Yeah, so I think about complications as there are short term and long term complications. So long term we worry about the health of organs in the body so the brain and the heart, kidneys, short term complications can be increased urination, increased thirst, weight loss, fluoridation. In the long-term complications, how long do those usually take to develop over what time are you talking about? Because sometimes when you're taking care of your blood sugars, it can be really hard to link good blood sugar control with the risk of complications down the road. Yeah, this complication generally takes years to develop, so they don't occur immediately. That being said a lot of people with type two diabetes probably don't get diagnosed at the time of the diabetes start. So that's important to know that in many people with type two diabetes, you're probably diagnosed possibly years later, unless they've been screened racially over a period of time. And when we talk about the complications it's diabetes, the eye disease and heart disease, the kidney disease, the heart disease, the things that you mentioned are those things that will happen anyways, irrespective of whether a person with diabetes takes care of their disease or can they actually prevent those complications? Yeah, so we know that blood glucose control is really important to helping prevent those complications. Kidney disease, the nerve disease and the risk can be greatly reduced by blood glucose control. In addition, there are other things that are really important to vessel blood vessel health and heart health and brain health. And those are controlling blood pressure, oftentimes high blood pressure can be seen in people with diabetes and the other part of it is cholesterol. So those are all things that are kind of managed as part of a person with diabetes treatment to help of the whole body. It's been really enlightening to hear about all the different ways that someone with diabetes can really reduce their risk, developing complications. You know, one of the questions that often comes up is can a person with diabetes eat sweets? Can they have desserts? What do you think? Yeah, I generally, my own patients and nothing is really off limits, but it's important to know that sweets can affect blood sugar. I think quantities important. So just keeping in mind everything in moderation in frequency is also important. And not all people with diabetes are the same. So sweets can affect one person may be differently than another person with diabetes. And what are some of the diabetic emergencies if you will that caregiver or loved one should be aware of? One important one is low blood glucose or hypoglycemia and people at risk for this are people who are on insulin or some specific oral medications that are known to cause low blood glucose. And generally, we teach our patients to look out for signs like sweating, feeling irritable, maybe feeling their vision is becoming dark, tremulousness. And if that happens, if they're able to check their blood glucose right then, that's great. If not, they should just treat that symptoms as a low blood glucose. And we recommend drinking a half cup of juice or regular sodas about 15 grams of carbohydrates or taking four glucose tablets and then repeating what glucose check in about 15 minutes. Well that's really great information, especially to know if you see someone or know someone with diabetes and they have an emergency low blood glucose on how to support or assist them. What other resources might be available for patients with diabetes, we have our patient website for diabetes. That's a great resource. What about organizations or other resources you might suggest that someone with diabetes or a family member with diabetes might seek out? One resource is the American diabetes association website has a lot of great facts and also one of great advice on foods like diabetes friendly foods that people diabetes can enjoy. The American Heart Association is also another great resource because so many people with diabetes are also at risk for heart disease. So that one also can be helpful for people with diabetes. Another question that we often get is if I have diabetes doesn't.

"Welcome to diabetes deconstructive, a podcast for people interested in learning more about diabetes. I'm your host, doctor Rita Kayani at Johns Hopkins University school of medicine. We developed this podcast as a companion to our patient guide to diabetes website. If you want a trusted and easy to understand resource for diabetes, or to listen to previous podcasts, please visit Hopkins diabetes info dot org. That's all one word. On today's podcast, we are excited to look at the basics of diabetes with doctor sadi sarkar, an assistant Professor of medicine at Johns Hopkins, and the director of the inpatient diabetes management surface at Hopkins as well. Doctor sarkar received her MD from the Yale school of medicine and completed her internship at residency in internal medicine at the Yale New Haven hospital and fellowship in endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism at Vanderbilt university medical center. She received her masters of science in clinical investigation, also from Vanderbilt. Doctor sarker has led outpatient and inpatient diabetes services at both the Johns Hopkins hospital and Johns Hopkins baby medical center, and now serves us the director of the inpatient diabetes management service at both locations. Welcome, doctor sarkar. Thanks doctor Kelly for having me on this podcast. Doctor sarkar, just wanted to ask you a few basic questions about diabetes. Here are some of the types of questions we often get. Could you tell us what exactly is diabetes? To put it very concisely or simply diabetes is really when person's body can not either make insulin or not make enough insulin. And there's more to that, that's kind of the main issue that I think of when I think of what diabetes is. And there are different types of diabetes, type one and type two. Can you tell us a little bit about what makes those types of diabetes different? People with type one diabetes generally can not make insulin. So in type one diabetes is considered what we call an autoimmune disease where the immune system actually targets the pancreas and that's why a person with type one diabetes may not be able to make insulin type two diabetes patients with type two diabetes tend to have a difficult time making enough insulin for their body and in addition, those patients may not be as sensitive or respond as well to insulin. We hear a lot about insulin when we talk about diabetes. Can you talk a little bit more about why insulin is such an important hormone in the body? Without insulin glucose, which is a type of fuel that our body needs can't enter cells, so cells can't get the fuel that they need to make energy. So insulin is really important to get glucose into cells. Are there any other hormones in the body that lower blood glucose or is insulin the only one? There are other hormones that work to increase insulin made by the body. And those can be made by the body in response to food. Yeah, it's so interesting, isn't it that there's multiple hormones that can raise blood glucose or sugar in the body, but really only one insulin that can lower our blood sugar levels and the reason why it's so important to me imaging people with diabetes. Why is it that some people get diabetes and other people don't? They're probably a lot of factors that contribute to why someone might have diabetes and in another person might not. So those can include things like family history, having family members with diabetes, other things can be the environment and that can include just level of activity, food, and then other things can be age. So there are factors that can be outside of the control of a person who has diabetes. So what are the factors that people can control? When we talk about preventing diabetes, what are the factors that someone could work on to produce their risk? There are things that people can do to help reduce their risk of type two diabetes. That includes diet and exercise, so those are kind of the pillars of diabetes prevention. Healthy diet and also regular exercise. You know, it's often one of the questions we get from patients with diabetes is, is there a diabetes diet or what really can I eat in one of the biggest struggles that often patients share that they deal with in their day to today lives? What do you tell your patients in terms of what a healthy lifestyle means? Something that depends on the individual person. I mean, for some people, exercise could be limited because of other factors like joint pain or just pain that prevents them from maybe walking or running. But as tolerated, I tell patients to try to walk or do another type of exercise if they don't do any exercise maybe just starting off at one or two times a week and then kind of building up this air able to exercise. For diet, the American diabetes association doesn't recommend a specific diabetes diet. I generally tell patients kind of a balanced diet. So keeping an eye special on carbohydrates because carbohydrates can raise blood glucose. And so in our clinic, we generally say carbohydrates are not the enemy, but just being mindful of how carbohydrates can affect blood glucose is important for people with diabetes. Weight loss is often something that people talk about as well, having to lose weight. Why is that so important? What is the link between diabetes and obesity? Yeah, it's an excellent question. So obesity is associated with diabetes and generally weight loss helps the body respond better to insulin. Definitely seeing people with diabetes losing weight can help them respond better to medications in just correspond to insulin better. Now, we talked a lot about type two diabetes. I wonder if we could briefly talk about type one diabetes. First of all, can you tell us how common diabetes is in the United States and perhaps around the world with some more common type and how many people are we seeing in the United States with diabetes? So the prevalence most recently is about 11%. So in the United States, a little over 30 million Americans with diabetes including type one type two take two is more common and it's been increasing in prevalence. Not only in the United States for worldwide for many years. And that includes people with diagnosed diabetes in the United States so that around 30 million or a little bit more than 30 million people with diagnosed diabetes, but also includes people who don't know that they have diabetes. In type two.
