Practicing Gratitude Today’s show is about how transformative it can be to practice gratitude on a regular basis. It can improve your health, relationships, work environment, and those of your family and friends. When others see how it’s changed your life they will want to learn more and start practicing gratitude in their own lives. I know that I have done a previous show on this but, because of the holidays coming up, I wanted to do a fresh episode as a way to express my own gratitude for all of you who listen to my podcast. In addition to my podcast, I am also an Intuitive Coach, and for the holidays I am offering a free coaching session for anyone who would like some extra care, support, or encouragement during this time.

Practicing Gratitude

The Healthy Skeptic My interview guest is Robert Davis, Ph.D., also known as The Healthy Skeptic. Robert is an award-winning journalist whose latest book is “Supersized Lies”, How myths about weight loss are keeping us fat - and the truth about what really works. We had a very interesting conversation about dieting, food, and individual health and how trying to follow the many diet plans out in the media can be confusing and in the long run a waste of our time and money. This podcast is one of the most valuable you can listen to, especially if you have bought too many diet books and still not found a a diet that works for you. Robert’s website is www.healthyskeptic.com - where you can check out his videos and books.

3 New Things to Know This podcast has 3 interesting study results. The first has to do with low B-12 levels leading to dementia. The second is about fidgeting while you’re stuck sitting some place for hours - like on a plane ride. And the third is a study which found a clear link in women between eating dairy products and a lower risk of cancer. It’s not a long podcast so give it a listen and get the details for each. I also talked a bit more at the end about my coaching practice and how to get in touch if I can help - email me at susan@susanrosin.com

What is Andropause? Today’s podcast is with Dr. Chris Azzola who you all are familiar with from previous podcasts. Cris has a very interesting subject to talk about and it’s called Andropause, which is the male version of Menopause. I bet you didn’t know that it even existed, I didn’t. There are some similarities as well as a lot of differences and we cover a lot of them here in this podcast. We also talk about visceral fat (which both sexes can have) and its effects on hormones. We also discuss blood sugar regulation, cholesterol, and diets and their impact negatively and positively on men and women during Andropause and Menopause. There was so much good info in this podcast that you need to watch/listen to it and not just read this summary. You can get in touch with Dr. Azzola at this link if you’d like to set up an appointment about an issue you are currently dealing with or to just get her involved in your physical wellbeing. www.DrAzzola.com

Signs or Symptoms? Is there a difference between Medical Signs and Medical Symptoms? Turns out that there is ever since the 20th Century - before that time they were the same. It’s still pretty confusing to those of us who are not patients or observers but it turns out to not be as confusing as it seems. Symptoms are what we feel but can’t always see. Signs point toward diseases, objective evidence of a disease, or a measure of a possible disease. I give some examples of both in the podcast to make it easier to understand the difference. I also gave a short update on my Intuitive Coaching Practice - who I’m working with, why, and how you or someone you know can contact me to learn more (email me at susan@susanrosin.com). I’m still looking for a name for the Practice so if you have any good suggestions after listening to the podcast let me know at the same email address.

Cataracts Explained with Dr. Shamie Today’s guest, Dr. Neda Shamie, is an Opthalmologist M.D. at The Maloney-Shamie Vision Institute in Los Angeles, CA. We had a very interesting and enlightening conversation about cataracts, what to watch for, what to do if you think you’ve developed them, and the many options now available to us to fix them. Most options actually give you better eye sight and you can choose what you want - better reading, better far vision, or a combination of them both. It’s like being given another 20+ years of clear vision. Dr. Shamie also explained how important it is to get an annual eye examination, what to ask about, and what to tell your doctor about any issues you’re having. After this discussion I realized how lucky we all are to be living in a time where cataracts can be fixed and our lives improved in an office visit of just 20-30 minutes. You can learn more about and/or make an appointment with Dr. Shamie at https://www.maloneyvision.com To learn more about PanOptix and Vivity that Dr. Shamie talked about visit mycataracts.com

Integrative Medicine Conversation An Interview with Aaron Hartman M.D. This is one of my longer interviews because there was just so much to talk about and we really only skimmed the surface of the whole subject. Dr. Hartman is originally from and currently lives in Virginia where he is one of the rare Integrative Medicine doctors. Dr. Hartman became interested in this area of medicine because of his first adopted daughter who had Cerebral Palsy. His daughter's health struggles forced him to confront an uncomfortable realization: Our current healthcare system doesn't have all of the answers. His wife, however, refused to give up hope. She ultimately pointed him to functional medicine. His daughter & other two kids began to thrive. After years in family practice, he felt called to make a dramatic shift. In 2016 Dr. Hartman founded Richmond Integrative and Functional Medicine where he helps patients identify leverage points in key areas of their lifestyle & health that harness their body's remarkable power to heal and begin living the vibrant life they deserve. He has become the ‘go to’ doctor for difficult and hard cases in central Virginia. Here are some links to a free gift, his website & membership (listen to the podcast for more on this):   Free eBook gift on Resilience: https://go.richmondfunctionalmedicine.com/brguide-pod Website + membership: https://richmondfunctionalmedicine.com https://www.youtube.com/c/AaronHartmanMD www.facebook.com/rvaintegrative

Are You Getting Enough B-12? As we get older it can get harder to get all of the vitamins and minerals we need from our food. There are various reasons for that but mostly it has to do with less stomach acid to break down our food into essential vitamins. One of those vitamins is B12. This podcast is a repeat from 2020 but it is just as important now as it was then. B12 helps us maintain and improve our red blood cells, nervous system, digestive system, and our production of DNA to name just a few. If that sounds important you’re right and it is. Some of the B12 deficiency symptoms that show that you need more in your body are depression, canker sores, brain fog, tingling in your legs and feet, and fatigue. If you have any of those symptoms you should go talk to your doctor and be sure to ask for a test to measure your level of B12. If you are a vegan or a vegetarian there is a good chance you may be low on B12. Why is that? Well, it’s because B12 is found in animal products and you mostly likely don’t eat any. The best sources of B12 are in beef and fish (salmon & tuna mostly). Your best bet is to start taking a B12 supplement and don’t worry if you are only a little bit deficient because your body will absorb what it needs and passes the excess out in your urine. If you have any specific questions about whether you need to take extra B12 ask your doctor for his/her advice!
