How mindfulness changes the emotional life of our brains | Richard J. Davidson | TEDxSanFrancisco

health No Comments »

“Why is it that some people are more vulnerable to life’s slings and arrows and others more resilient?” In this eye-opening talk, Richard Davidson discusses how mindfulness can improve well-being and outlines strategies to boost four components of a healthy mind: awareness, connection, insight, and purpose.

Richard Davidson is researching how mindfulness changes the emotional life of our brains and what we know about people’s brains of individuals showing more resilience than others. Davidson is Wiliam James and Vilas professor of psychology and psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison as well as founder and director of the Center for Healthy Minds. His research is focused on the neural bases of emotion and emotional style and methods to promote human flourishing, including meditation and related contemplative practices. #Neuroscience #Wellbeing #MentalHealth Richard Davidson is Research Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry and Founder & Director of the Center for Healthy Minds, University of Wisconsin-Madison.Davidson’s research is focused on the neural bases of emotion and emotional style and methods to promote human flourishing including meditation and related contemplative practices.

Mindfulness is an effective and side effect free method to treat and prevent mental illness, and improve mental health. Our research will test the changes in brain activity that take place as a result of mindfulness, helping us further understand how mindfulness can be used to improve our lives. Eventually, we hope to establish mindfulness practice as part of the core curriculum in high schools, so that every teenager benefits from a reduced risk of mental illness.

Scientists think the benefits provided by mindfulness come from an improved ability to direct our attention, so we can focus on the moment, rather than being distracted by worries about the future or regrets about the past. This improved attention is almost certainly the result of neuroplastic change. However, no one has systematically examined the effect of these changes on brain activity during the direction of attention. The current research project will examine changes in neural inhibition (the brain’s ability to quiet non-relevant regions) as a result of mindfulness practice. Understanding these changes will help us understand how mindfulness works to improve attention.

Can Vitamin C Help Reduce Spinal Pain?

back and hip No Comments »

San Jose chiropractor Dr. William Holdsworth DC from Pain Relief Chiropractic explains the role vitamin c has on the musculoskeletal system. Though essential for collagen health—a key determinant of ligament, tendon, and bone quality—a large portion of the general population is currently deficient in vitamin C. In a new study, investigators analyzed data on 4,742 individuals and found a link between suboptimal serum blood levels of vitamin C and a higher prevalence of neck pain, low back pain, and related functional limitations. This study supports the need to consider nutritional aspects, in this case specifically vitamin C, in the management of back pain patients. Nutritional counseling is commonly included in the chiropractic care model.

C. Diff can affect you kidneys and other organs. She explains the treatment consist of taking vancomycin orally. This illness is contagious, so you need to wash your hands with soap and water if you were near to a patient with C. Diff.

Zantac Cancer Lawsuits | Jan 2021 Latest Update (in text)

injuries No Comments »

Thousands of Zantac cancer lawsuits are expected to be filed over the next few years. Our law firm is accepting cases from people who regularly used Zantac (or generic ranitidine) and were subsequently diagnosed with cancer.

What is the backstory? The purpose of Zantac is to help patients who have heartburn, sour stomach, acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or other GI issues. By all accounts, it works for this purpose.

But we recently discovered Zantac contains dangerously high levels of the cancer-causing chemical NDMA. Since the late 70s, we have known that NDMA is bad stuff. Animal testing showed that it causes cancer. So NDMA is banned in the U.S. with limited exceptions for research. This stuff is pure poison to humans. No one really disputes this. Instead, the battle in these cases is going to be just how much NDMA was in Zantac.

How Did This Happen?

How did this sneak up on us? It is a good question. There is a lot of blame to go around, certainly. The FDA and drugmakers are first in line. I’m also amazed that plaintiffs’ lawyers were so slow to pick up the clues. There was a study in 2016 that found that during the 24 hours after the patients took the drug, the NDMA in the patient’s urine increased 400 times. That is insane. I can see why the drug companies would turn a blind eye to this. But so did the FDA and every single plaintiffs’ lawyer. But there was little public commentary and connecting of the dots.

 What the Lawsuits Allege

There are other NDMA contamination causes where there was a manufacturing mistake and  NDMA got in the drug. This is what happened in the Valsartan cases. But the Zantac cases appear to be something very different. The Zantac NDMA problem appears to be a fundamental problem in the way the chemicals in Zantac metabolize in the body. Because there is at least some evidence suggesting that when ingested, Zantac forms levels on NDMA far beyond what doctors say is the NDMA limit before you put yourself at serious risk of cancer.

How do we know this? The FDA was protecting us? Ah, no. Valisure, an online pharmacy, notified the FDA that it had done its own testing of Zantac. It found that Zantac and generic ranitidine tablets had NDMA at levels thousands of times higher than the FDA’s own permissible daily intake limit.

The Valisure tests did not look at whether something can happen to ranitidine to increase the risk of cancer. In January 2020, a California lab, Emery Pharma, reported that Zantac may produce higher levels of NDMA when exposed to heat for five days. So there may be a lot of variables at play as to why the NDMA in Zantac could expose people to cancer.

The Class Action

Last month (November 2019), the Plaintiffs in six federal lawsuits asked a panel of judges to put Zantac in what we call an MDL. This is a “kinda class action” lawsuit where the claims are centralized under one judge for proceeds before trial. So if you file a Zantac lawsuit in any federal court in the country, the claims are all sent to one federal court judge for the initial handling of the case. This is good news for plaintiffs because it allows lawyers to merge their efforts to make a case. The only bad news is that an MDL does move slower than a regular case which slows down settlement.

Getting a Lawyer

Many Zantac users who have been diagnosed with cancer are now looking back and questions, with good reason, whether Zantac may have been a contributing cause.

The expert explains if a patient has mid-back pain and a recent unwanted weight loss, or nighttime pain, it’s necessary to do several studies, especially if people have a history of cancer. He affirms it’s important to catch it early. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

7 Best Lower Back Pain Relief Treatments – Ask Doctor Jo

back and hip No Comments »

Lower back pain can be caused by many different things, but if you’re looking for general lower back pain relief, here are 7 of my favorite treatments that should help. Purchase the seat cushion featured in this video here: http://www.askdoctorjo.com/lower-back-pain-relief

One of the tips in this video is to use a seat cushion. The folks at Dr. Back sent me their Orthopedic Seat Cushion to use. It’s great for using in any chair including in your car, at the office, or even in a wheelchair. It also does a good job of taking pressure off the low back, and it helps keep your spine in a neutral position.
