Welcome! and Thank you for listening.
What does it mean if you are in that 25% of the population than has an abnormally high Lp(a)? Is it worth loosing sleep over? I can assure you that will not fix the problem. So many studies correlate numbers with potential outcomes. It seems logical, but it often is not the case. Just ask a 90 year old Italian with a high Lp(a).
Even worry is treated with a medication, and there is no known biochemical pathway that correlates with worry. The treatment effect, like most psychiatric medications, is just to dull awareness. What a great quality of life that must be. Most people want to avoid dementia but think nothing of medications that dull your cognitive abilities. Hence, don't operate heavy machinery which should include a car. If they said car, less people might opt out of taking said mind dulling medications.
It all gets back to the root cause of not feeling well. Do you have a disease or a side effect of medication. Perhaps you are suffering from a lack of exercise induced mitochondrial dysfunction. I hope you enjoy the rant and thank you for listening.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.
48% of adults carry the diagnosis of hypertension. They are diagnosed and placed on medication usually based on protocols. Very rarely are people assessed for why they have hypertension. Certainly, nutrition is a large contributor to elevations in blood pressure both from excessive sodium intake and vascular damage from a high fat diet. But the reaction to stressful situations also plays a role. Stress is perceived by the individual and the reaction is also controlled by the individual. The emphasis is on eliminating stress, but that is not a realistic option because it is the perception of the individual about what defines stress. We all possess the ability to choose our reactions. It is easier said than done but certainly beat the health consequences of ignoring the problem.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. Today I have a plant based strong man on the podcast. Nathan Majnaric, SCCC, CSCS. Most plant based athletes lean toward the endurance world so it is great to have the opportunity to speak with a powerlifter, strength coach, and a blue belt in jujitsu that is not only fueled by plants, but has improved on plants. It was not a compromise but an asset to fuel plant based while continuing to advance in his chosen sports but also from a basic health standpoint.
Most lifestyle diseases are a result of impaired metabolism. Our muscles are a major user of energy, and the organelle that is the power plant of the cell is the mitochondria. As we lose muscle mass, we lose mitochondria. This leads to impaired energy utilization as well as the risks of falls and brain perfusion of nutrients. Bottom line, we all need to train to maintain our muscle mass or regain muscle mass if lost through inactivity. It can be the difference in living independently or the ability to participate actively in life.
We will discuss approaches to strength training as well as fueling for recovery. How much and how often or is anything better than nothing are often topics of concern.
Given Nathan’s diverse training experience, we feel comfortable of offering online training programs specifically designed for an individual’s goal. We will also begin to offer limited personal instruction for those with specific needs and the desire to have a someone that can interact with them to achieve a specific goal.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.
A New England Journal of Medicine Study looked at how much energy people thought they consumed, and how much energy they actually burned. They compared two groups of overweight individuals based on reported energy consumption. Group one had difficulty loosing weight despite a reported 1200 kcal or less consumption of food and vigorous exercise. There were some surprising findings and some consistent findings that I think you will find interesting.
Nutrition is one of the biggest contributors to a healthy life span yet we ignore it's significance and celebrate eating poorly. We are made to believe that overindulgence is necessary for true happiness. We look at food restrictions as a form of punishment.
We would like to help turn this around by promoting mindful healthy eating that is enjoyable. We also celebrate movement to preserve lean muscle mass and mobility. Check our our website to see what we can do to make you achieve your health goals to insure a healthy life span.
Thanks for listening

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.
What are your health goals? Do you have a bucket list? My grandmother used to say that if wishes were horses, beggars would ride. I think there is a lot of confusion between wishing we were healthy and having a plan to do something about it. We wish there was a magic pill or supplement that would make us young, healthy, energetic, and happy. It would be even better in the form of a gummy that tasted like candy. Sorry, that is not an option.
I think it is important to see or imagine yourself as you would like to be, and then initiate the step to complete that journey. It is not wishing. It is action.
I just turned 62, and I am walking and running better than I did the last half of 61. I am working the plan to achieve my bucket list. And as I empty the list, I am filling it up.
We would be honored to help you visualize your health journey and take the steps needed to work on your bucket list. Email me at jami@doctordulaney.com with questions.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. When things are going well, there is a flow state. We are in "The Zone". Funny how it does not happen too often. But when it does, we seem to accomplish our goals with minimal efforts. The other times we are trouble shooting. Try anything to make things better. Force the right gait, the right swing, the right nutrition plan. We buy hundreds of dollars of groceries that go to waste because we have no idea how to use them. We try six different swing mechanics at once. We change shoes, gait, and arm movements all at the same time. How do we stop the music!
Pause. . . .
What is the frustrating event. What are the facts and what is our mind interpreting as reality?
Pause. Assess. Make a decision. Follow the plan. We would love to help you assess your frustrating events and impediments to a healthy life. We can help you formulate a plan to achieve your desired goals and help you take the chaos out of your day to day struggles. Email me a jami@doctordulaney.com for a free consultation.
Check out our website to see if being healthy is the choice you are ready to make.
Thank you for listening.

Welcome! Thank you for listening.
What is a whole food? What is a clean food? Those terms are thrown around with authority and ultimately blend into just food. If you ask most people on a diet, they will throw out that they are eating 1200 calories a day. That seems to be the magic number that has stuck in the diet world. Apps are available that helps one to prove a point. They are only as good as what is entered. I have never had a person tell me that they consumed 3000 calories in a day, but I am sure it happens on a regular basis and more often than 1200 calories. What about the weight of food? Does a pound of chips have the same amount of energy as a pound of potatoes? What about a pound of carrots.
It turns out that vegetables, tubers, and fruit contain about the right amount of calories per pound for humans to consume and maintain a healthy weight. It also turns out that we as a society do not burn near the calories as a typical hunter-gatherer society. It is also true that men burn more calories per pound of body weight than women.
I hope you enjoy the episode. It you would like help matching your energy consumption with your energy usage, email me at jami@doctordulaney.com.
Thanks for listening.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.
What will you do with the results of a test? How will you react? I was very happy to see normal bones and joints on a recent CT scan of my leg, but it did not show the source of my ankle pain. Good news! Nothing bad. I can return to training. It could also be interpreted as I am still in pain and don’t know why. I am taking the win and I am grateful. It is good to exclude bad things even if you do not know exactly what the problem is. The odds are in your favor for a good outcome. Testing and procedures are a game of risk and reward. Having a plan for the outcome before diving in is always a good idea.
Walking an hour a day is good, but how fast do you need to go? However, how fast your heart rate goes up is also important.
I take a little dive into these topics as well as some tropical fruit suggestions.

Pills, potions and procedures aimed at curing ailments. The web is full of devices and programs that promise pain relief, younger bodies, and happier lives. Miracles by definition are not a common occurrences, yet they are promised daily. It is hard not to give them a try. Nothing to loose they say, but often the disappointment is not too long thereafter. I have gone down that road as well many times. A little glimmer of hope to a solution that is much more complicated than it originally seemed. My latest running injury is such an example. Insoles or a shoe change for instant relief, running hard to clear the cobwebs that might be the issue, bounce house jumping to better mobility, or sand dune running perhaps.
In the end we realize there is no quick fix. But there is the opportunity to learn and do the work it takes to really make a change. They don't say patience is a virtue for no good reason.
Eating an plant based diet and getting stronger can only help. It is not quick, but the rewards are many. I will share a few reasons on this podcast. Add another box of tofu to the basket, and I hope you enjoy the podcast. We would love to help you and your family tradition to become healthier and stronger.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.
The new word is extreme with regard to diet choice. Moderation is out! The reality is, it was never in. The abundance of food choices has grown making moderation only an imaginable concept. I think it is good to always be open to change that supports your goals. Perhaps your goals change requiring nutritional changes, or change is needed to support your existing goals. None the less, you need to be mindful of your why in order to achieve those goals when the going gets tough. There is constant input for "the best" diet that has no way of knowing your nutritional needs or why.
Be aware of headlines beginning with "study shows" or "experts suggest". It becomes a slippery slop to find what is actually behind the headlines.
I think the best place to start is to clearly define your goals and the reason or why you have chosen them. Nutrition needs change over time. Growing children need different amounts of nutrients that adults. Nursing and pregnant women have different needs. So do people recovering from injury or surgeries. The problem is that nutritional choices don't always show up immediately. People blame high school and college sports injuries for joint pain 25 years later but never implement their nutritional choices.
Today, I reflect on my nutrition choices and how my life might have been different following a plan of moderation. If you would like some help guiding nutritional changes to meet your health goals, check out our website at https://doctordulaney.com/services/pcp-cardiology-nutrition/#pricing
