This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. This entire week we’re focusing on health tips for the New Year. Today’s tip is all about exercise. You don’t have to join a gym or spend a bunch of money. The key is to just start moving more. Yoga or other low impact exercises can be done at home with a DVD or through videos on your computer or phone. Even just walking around the block every evening will yield great benefits. Even the researchers at University of California – Irvine agree that it doesn’t have to be much. A new study they conducted showed that even 10 minutes of exercise per day can improve your brain function. Look at that – you can improve your physical body as well as your mental capacity through small and easy steps. Really, there’s no excuse. The key to this goal is to be specific. Don’t just say you want to exercise more. Instead, come up with something measureable like walking 10,000 steps per day or doing 30 minutes of yoga three times a week. This Stay Young Medical Minute is brought to you by Executive Medicine of Texas, your leader in concierge medicine and age management.

This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. This entire week we’re focusing on health tips for the New Year. Let’s start with clearing out the clutter. Don’t wait for Spring time, start now. Even if you only do a little bit every day, eventually your decluttering will have a significant impact on your mental and physical health. My suggestion is to get three boxes and line them up side by side. Mark them with “Keep” “Throw Away” and “Donate”. This will keep you from running back and forth from place to place. Once you are done filling the boxes, you’re done for the day. Take the “throw away” items to the trash. Drop off the “donate” and put the “keep” items in their rightful place. Repeat each day until you’re done. But don’t be too quick to say out with the old and in with the new. Instead, resist the urge to fill your space back up with more stuff.  This Stay Young Medical Minute is brought to you by Executive Medicine of Texas, your leader in concierge medicine and age management.

Show Topic: How to Fight Holiday Stress

Co-Hosts:  Judy Gaman, Mark Anderson, Jennifer Marcenelle

Guest: Judith Orloff, MD

 

Segment 1:

 Today we are discussing the different ways to combat holiday stress. 

-What makes the holidays so stressful?

            -Shared stories from the hosts

MUSIC FOR DOC SHOCK (JIM)

THAT MUSIC MEANS IT’S TIME FOR DOC SHOC. A TIME WHEN WE FIND SOMETHING SHOCKING IN THE NEWS OR WE’RE SHOCKED IT MADE THE NEWS.

Speaking of stress.  Are you shrinking your brain?  Turns out, high levels of stress can shrink your brain.  That’s because stress causes the body to secrete a hormone called cortisol.  High levels of cortisol have been linked to heart disease, depression, hypertension, and obesity.  It can also lead to decreased grey matter in the brain.  If you are overstressed, get moving.  Even a quick walk around the block can give your mind the clarity it needs to sort through stressors.  It’s also important to sleep and eat well.  Both will give you the physical energy your body needs to fight off rising cortisol levels.  Talk to your doctor if you are worried about your stress levels.

The Staying Young Show

Show Topic: “The Psychology of Good Health with Ronald Smith”

Co-Hosts:  Judy Gaman, Mark Anderson

Guest: Professor Ronald Smith

 Segment 1:

  • An important part of taking ownership of your own health is to stop playing the victim card. (open discussion)
  • How psychology affects your health

 DOC SHOCK

Suicide rates are on the rise.  The World Health Organization estimates that over 800,000 people commit suicide yearly.  It is also the second leading cause of death in people ages 15 to 29.  New research out of University of Utah suggests that genetics may play a role in suicide risk.  Researchers were able to examine the genetics of 1,300 DNA samples of people who lost their lives to suicide.  Using this information, they were able to localize four genetic variants and 207 genes that influence suicide risk.  This research could pave the way for better treatment options for suicidal thoughts and tendencies.  Talk to your doctor if you or a loved one are battling suicidal thoughts.

Coming up, our special guest Ronald Smith.    

Segment 2:

Today’s focus is on taking ownership on your own health.  Our special guest, Ronald Smith will be joining us shortly. 

Immortal minute

Ron is an experienced sociology professor with a demonstrated history of working in the higher education industry. He is skilled in student development, research, and adult education.  He was recently a political analyst on mid-term election night for ABC affiliate KAVU-TV in Victoria, TX.

 -It seems like we are taught from an early age to either rise above challenges or stay a victim.  Do you think family life can play a role in this?

-How can playing the “blame game” or “poor me” card become dangerous?

-Do you believe that social media can exacerbate the victim mentality mindset?

Segment 3:

We have Professor Ronald Smith on our show today discussing the psychology of good health and wellness. 

-What are some ways our listeners can break free from a victim mentality mindset?

-Tell us about a time you faced major challenges and circumstances.  What was the key to your success?

In 2013, I was homeless sleeping out of my truck. I was looking for full-time work as a college professor working multiple jobs part-time with little income. It was a low point in my life. However, I continued to stay positive although I felt miserable mostly and my circumstances started to change.

I eventually moved back into an apartment and shortly after I received a full-time teaching job in upstate New York, which I ultimately parlayed into a full-time teaching job back home in Texas closer to family.

So, in a few years I went from basically being homeless to having a full-time professor job, being on television as a political commentator and doing a radio show with prominent figures. If I would have wallowed in my misfortunes and maintained a (victim mentality) then perhaps I wouldn’t have had the motivation to continue through with reaching my goals.

This is Judy Gaman, author of the award winning book Age to Perfection: How to Thrive to 100, Happy, Healthy, and Wise and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. Each day I bring you one new tip that will help you stay young and vibrant. I heard a comment over the holidays that really struck me. One of my family members said brown sugar was healthier than regular white sugar. Well, Sugar that's the color of dirt doesn't make it more "natural" or healthier than its white counterpart. The color comes from a common residual sticky syrup, called molasses. Brown sugar retains some of that molasses. In fact, brown sugar is mostly white sugar with some molasses — so refining it further would give you white table sugar. While molasses contains some vitamins and minerals like potassium and magnesium, there is not enough in your standard brown sugar packet that should make you reach for it if you're trying to eat healthier. As far as your body is concerned, white and brown sugar are one-in-the-same.We want to empower you with as much health information as possible.
