Memorable Quotes When you do something for the first time, it's always hard for people to get their heads around it and also understand it. Using a democratic way of doing things, such as crowdsourcing, could actually lead to something. - Dr. Dung Trinh Healthcare is a collaborative effort between a patient and a provider. Unless there's buy-in on both sides of the treatment plan, that treatment won’t go forward. - Dr. Dung Trinh Let’s aim for equity and level the playing field. You get access if you're in rural America. You get access even if you're not in the high-income districts where there are lots of high-performing doctors. - Paul Roberts Doctors should be using technology, but now technology owns doctors. They’re typing on a screen and only half listening while talking to their patient who may be struggling emotionally. - Helene Blanchette One of the discussions was on how seniors might have a challenge with technology. And then the other conversation was about engaging young adults to be more conscious of their health - and is the Metaverse solution to do that? - Helene Blanchette About the Host: Dung Trinh, MD is the Chief Medical Officer of Irvine Clinical Research , a medical missionary with TongueOut Medical Missions, and holds leadership positions with multiple healthcare organizations in Orange County.

In this episode, you’ll learn: How a non-profit media outlet brings news How UnchainedTV does fact-checking to bring information often ignored by mainstream media How today’s medicine is reactive but should really be pro active Embracing a plant-based diet and lifestyle Bringing animal welfare into the spotlight Memorable Quotes We kill more animals in one day than all the human beings who have lived in the history of the world. There is something wrong with that. - Jane Velez-Mitchell What's wrong with our society, particularly our healthcare system, is that it's all designed to wait for you to get sick and then treat you and medicate you for those illnesses. True doctors get precious little education in nutrition. - Jane Velez-Mitchell Medicine today is reactive and not proactive. You're paid for a sick patient. You're not paid for somebody who's well. And so the system is kind of jigged in a way where it's wrong. - Dung Trinh We should be in the front end with nutrition, prevention, and lifestyle recommendations as opposed to in the back end prescribing meds. - Dung Trinh There are 20 million people on the verge of starvation in Africa. The starvation crisis is out of control. But we are taking most of our food, or at least a good percentage, and feeding it to 80 billion animals - the most inefficient food system. So I get infuriated when people who are dealing with world hunger or local hunger give out meat to people. - Jane Velez-Mitchell About the Host: Dung Trinh, MD is the Chief Medical Officer of Irvine Clinical Research , a medical missionary with TongueOut Medical Missions, and holds leadership positions with multiple healthcare organizations in Orange County.

But really the value of the system is manage care . The word “manage”.

Episode #46. About the Guest: Dr. Craig Stark's research investigates the neural bases of human long-term memory. He uses functional neuroimaging (fMRI), experimental psychology, neuropsychological studies of amnesic patients, and studies of aging and dementia to investigate how the neural systems supporting these various types of memory operate and interact. Particular emphasis is placed on understanding the human hippocampus and other components of the medial temporal lobe. In this episode, you’ll learn: How human memory works How the hippocampus and Amygdala affect memory Techniques to improve your memory How games can improve memory Memorable Quotes: Memory is stored in the strengths of the connections between neurons. Our brain has, somewhere between ten and a hundred billion neurons, and they all make connections to a bunch of other neurons. And memory is stored as the strength of the connections between them. - Craig Stark You are never too old. Your brain is changeable, plastic, and malleable. You can rewire it at any stage in life. These kinds of things are out there, and learning and memory are the ways to rewire your brain. - Craig Stark In dementia, the hippocampus and its adjacent structures are ground zero. They get taken out. Dory from Finding Nemo is a great example of an amnesic patient. She can't remember what happened if she gets distracted. These amnesic patients could be telling you a story and the end of the story would remind them of the beginning of the story, and they could even just loop and tell it again. - Craig Stark About the Host: Dung Trinh, MD is the Chief Medical Officer of Irvine Clinical Research, a medical missionary with TongueOut Medical Missions, and holds leadership positions with multiple healthcare organizations in Orange County.

Cognition: The New Vital Sign with Thomas O’Neill 49:00

3 years ago49:00

Researchers found that global life expectancy is now longer in 2022 than in the 2000s by about six to seven years. And generally, this is perceived as a good thing, right? Surprisingly and unfortunately it’s not all good and we're here to tell you why. We all know that as we grow older our body and mind weaken. This poses the problem that because we are now living longer, our body is now more prone to medical impairments that are usually seen in the later stages of life, like diabetes, cancer, and most of all Alzheimer's and dementia. Alzheimer’s is a cognitive disorder that is now the seventh leading cause of death according to WHO and the alarming issue here is the misconception that it is an age-related disease and the lack of tests that can be administered to possibly identify symptoms or early stages of the disease. In this episode, we are joined by Thomas O’Neill, CEO of Cognivue, a company that developed the first FDA-cleared technology for cognitive function, as he shares how cognitive health can elevate overall healthcare and increase our awareness so we can be better prepared for healthy aging. To learn more about Cognivue, stay tuned to today’s episode! Memorable Quotes: I can tell you that 90% of the time hearing aids are driven by wives dragging their husbands into the office, saying he's not listening. He can't hear right. And that happens all the time. So we need to screen, we need to look. If we don't look, we can't fix it. - Dr. Trinh It takes me 20 seconds to tell somebody to go exercise and watch their diet and it means nothing. They walk up the door and they see me in another six months. Yep, nothing changes right there. There's no incentive. Knowledge is not enough. You need to actually have the data about what's going on with you. - Dr. Trinh This is a movement that is not only a healthcare issue but a society issue. And if we don't all start leading from the front, we're gonna have a much bigger issue going down the road. - Thomas O’Neill Resources Mentioned: Cognivue About the Guests: Thomas O’ Neill is the President and CEO of Cognivue. He has more than 25 years of experience leading commercial operations and a proven track record in growing revenue while driving operational excellence and improving customer satisfaction.

Artificial Intelligence: Tools that can Help You Take Charge of Your Own Health with Harry Glorikian 48:46

3 years ago48:46

48:46

Have you ever thought about how Google seems to know the answers you’re looking for? Do you use Siri or Alexa to help you do simple tasks? Don't those “tools” make your life a little bit better? The answer is a resounding yes. Similarly, we think about how artificial intelligence is applied and the medical field. Technology in our day and age is continually being innovated and evolved. And because of the recent pandemic, a new type of healthcare paved its way in the world: Telemedicine. Telemedicine is a type of service or technology that allows medical professionals to diagnose and treat patients remotely or at a distance using telecommunication technologies such as our cell phone devices and smartwatches. It also makes use of AI to advance medical care by making diagnosis precise, prompt, and convenient. Join us in today’s episode as our guest Harry Glorikian, shares with us the new technologies that will be implemented in the near future that makes use of AI and computer science to help make healthcare more accessible to all. Memorable Quotes: If you do a Google search and it gives you what you want, there's a strong taste of artificial intelligence behind that. When you're speaking to Siri or Alexa, there's artificial intelligence in there, it is everywhere. Except you don't really know that it's there and that's the best kind of technology, the kind that helps you and you don't even have to think about it – Harry Glorikian I think physicians need to think more like a private equity firm where they optimize the outcome rather than the typical entrepreneur where you’re making a nickel on every transaction. – Harry Glorikian These technologies now allow you to clue yourself into your own being and be more informed and maybe make changes yourself before you have to go into the system. So it's empowering individuals to take charge of their own healthcare. –Harry Glorikian Resources Mentioned: Book: The Future You: How Artificial Intelligence Can Help You Get Healthier, Stress Less, and Live Longer January AI Levels Health About the Guests: Harry Glorikian is a global executive with 20+ years of influential leadership in life sciences, healthcare, and healthcare IT.

Medical Mission to Vietnam: Unraveling The Stigma with Abigail, Ming, Mia, and Berrie 48:34

3 years ago48:34

48:34

What would you do if you live in a rural area where health emergency services or basic healthcare are unavailable or difficult to access? What would you do if you can’t afford to pay your hospital bills or get the right medical attention that you need? These are real challenges of people living in developing countries where inaccessible health care is a major issue. In developing countries like Vietnam, where Dr. Trinh and his student volunteers conducted a medical mission, the general population has limited access to proper healthcare and education which is unfortunately the cause of the growing stigma on leprosy and other untreatable diseases. Leprosy, a disease that has long been treated and nearly eradicated in developed countries, is still plaguing countries like Vietnam. They build leprosy colonies and isolate patients. This results in people with leprosy living their lives not knowing their condition can be cured or managed. Medical missions like this aim to give access to this knowledge and healthcare to break the stigma gripping poor countries and help improve health and living conditions of those in need. Listen and learn more about their trip to Vietnam from our guests, Abigail, Ming, Mia, and Berrie to help break the stigma and impart proper education on this medical condition. Memorable Quotes: Honestly, we were so just involved with what we were doing and being with these people who were essentially strangers and really living with them for ten days and doing all of this kind of charity work and volunteer work was a new experience that you don't get every single day. And it was great. It was good to kind of detox away from that stuff and live in the present. - Mia The exact reason why we go specifically to these leprosy colonies is that we believe that there is a human value from just being who you are. – Dr. Trinh The life experience of not having, of not knowing what you're going to do tomorrow, of having no physical connection with anybody and just feeling like you're a street kid you're on your own. What happens in this country, most of the kids that age out of foster care go nowhere, which is why so many of them turn to drugs and alcohol. – Paul Roberts Resources Mentioned: Tongue Out About the Host: Dung Trinh, MD is the Chief Medical Officer of Irvine Clinical Research , a medical missionary with TongueOut Medical Missions, and holds leadership positions with multiple health care organizations in Orange County.

Virtual Reality Training in Medicine: Making Medical Practice Accessible Remotely with Christine King and Arabian Prince 45:11

3 years ago45:11

45:11

In this day and age where education and learning mean sitting in front of your computer screen and listening to your professor discuss can be very detrimental in the long run because of the lack of practical learning. This is exceptionally unacceptable in the field of medicine, where interactive learning should always be the aim of every educator. This is where Virtual Reality Training comes into play., In a sense, this can be the next step in the path of education we are striving for. Although not the same as experiencing the training or operation yourself, virtual reality can give us a sense of what to expect in various scenarios in the operating room. Platforms of learning like these can also be used to bring about equity in terms of education and healthcare. This means everyone can have access to these materials, bringing down barriers and boundaries so that everyone can enjoy the same privileges. Memorable Quotes: “There are great lessons to be learned in reviewing past performances of your own and the other people around you.” – Paul Roberts “We found that clinical immersion, meaning being able to just be a fly on the wall and stand in medical procedure really is helpful for students to learn, especially biomedical engineers and medical students, what is going on, what to expect and how can we innovate and help the people, the physicians that we're going to be working for or working with” – Christine King The mission of obtaining health equity is so important.

Faith Community Nursing: Providing Intentional Care for Everyone with Linda Mirshafiee and Eithne Keegan 48:39

3 years ago48:39

48:39

Every year, in May, we honor nurses all over the world as we celebrate National Nurses Month. It is an opportunity to advocate for the profession and to promote the value of their hard work and dedication. Being a nurse requires not only specialized education and training but also interpersonal skills and amiable qualities that will help them connect with healthcare consumers better. Needless to say, nursing is a noble profession as it is; but there is a growing specialty practice called Faith Community Nursing that makes this vocation even more challenging but greatly fulfilling at the same time. Imagine having someone to walk alongside you as you go through health crises in your life. What’s even better is that aside from the emotional and psychological support that they can give, they are trained professionals who can lay out information and answers to questions that you are too afraid or hesitant to ask doctors and other healthcare providers. That is essentially what faith community nurses aspire to do! With the support of the whole community and the improvement or promotion of healthcare services, faith community nurses strive to develop an integrative model of health and wellness. With this kind of approach, the hope is that more people will be encouraged to address health issues and prevent or minimize illnesses and even mental health conditions. Learn more about Faith Community Nursing from our guests, Eithne Keegan and Linda Mirshafiee in this episode! Memorable Quotes: I think when we all partner together – healthcare providers and parents – in supporting our kids, I think it makes it a much more positive experience. – Linda Mirshafiee We used to come together more as communities around crisis… But as church attendance has shrunk, as we've all become more virtual, as we become more mobile and move around the country, those family networks, those church networks, those community networks seem to be fading, falling apart; and more and more, we’re left on our own. – Paul Roberts There is comfort in knowing that there is a God… and also the purpose of belonging to a community. – Eithne Keegan Sometimes you got to get out and seek some help. And maybe it just reinforces what you already thought. Maybe it's just somebody holding your hand saying, “It's okay. You'll figure [it out].” But you need somebody. Being alone is not the answer to going through all of life here. Not at critical moments; I don't think that's when you should be alone. – Paul Roberts Resources Mentioned: End Game Frontline: Being Mortal Hoag Health Network About the Host: Dung Trinh, MD is the Chief Medical Officer of Irvine Clinical Research , a medical missionary with TongueOut Medical Missions, and holds leadership positions with multiple health care organizations in Orange County.

The Future Is Now: How Technology Can be Utilized for Improving Health and Wellness with Abigail Aboitiz 49:41

3 years ago49:41

49:41

Despite the many benefits that we can get from regular exercise, many people still turn down the idea or slack off when it comes to engaging in physical activities. For some, the biggest struggle is to be consistent and stick to a routine; while there are others who find it the most challenging to even begin. On top of that, going to the gym seem to be so much of a hassle for many people – it requires money, energy, effort, and plenty of our precious time. Are you the type of person who would always come up with excuses not to exercise? Or are you just too busy to really find time for it? Then how would you like it if, instead of going to the gym, you can actually bring “it” everywhere and work out while doing anything else that you have to do in your daily life? Our guest, Abigail Aboitiz, promotes the amazing technology called EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) which is a wireless body-sculpting device/suit that can help you reach your fitness goals or simply aid in maintaining your physical health and overall wellbeing. Aside from that, she also introduces the many possibilities that a blockchain – the system behind cryptocurrencies – can be utilized when it comes to healthcare. If you haven’t heard about any of these interesting and trailblazing ideas or if you want to learn more, then tune in to this episode! Memorable Quotes: I think the better utilization of crypto is it needs to be geared toward incentivizing people's health. – Abigail Aboitiz Life really is about us asking the right question, and you'll get the right answer. – Abigail Aboitiz You need to be in a position where you know how to measure outcomes when it comes to health. – Abigail Aboitiz Other Resources: Gym You Wear AXIA YesDoctor by 247 Health Solution LLC About the Guest: Abigail Aboitiz is the founder of Advanced Wearables Inc (AWI), a sister company of 247 Health Solution, which is a virtual management and remote patient monitoring solution designed to enhance and assist physicians, medical groups, and health systems.

Trends and Innovations in the Healthcare Delivery Systems with Dr. Clarence Lee Jr. 41:22

3 years ago41:22

41:22

The quality and accessibility of medical care services have always been significant points of discussion. And looking at the bigger picture with other social aspects and issues to be factored in, a lot of people can’t help but wonder, “Is healthcare still a basic right or a privilege?” To contextualize this issue, it would be helpful for experts and healthcare providers to evaluate trends, models, and systems that have been in place for ages; and consequently, reimagine what healthcare should look like to be able to innovate and provide better, more sustainable, and holistic services. In this episode, Dr. Trinh talks about an approach encapsulated in this medical metaverse called the MDDAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization). This system, which operates like an online community, gives members the unique opportunity to take part in designing and developing the system itself. Dr. Clarence Lee Jr., president, and CEO of Exhort Health, also discusses how he aims to decrease barriers to the utilization of healthcare services by simplifying processes, lowering costs, and improving the patients’ overall experience. Learn more about these innovative approaches that can be life-changing alternatives to conventional healthcare delivery systems! Memorable Quotes: Healthcare is a holistic approach – what you eat, how you exercise; it's stress, it's all sorts of things in your life. – Paul Roberts You want to decrease the barriers to utilization [of healthcare services] because you want to get ahead of stuff before you start having complications of conditions being uncontrolled. – Dr. Clarence Lee Jr. People are people. The human body is exactly the same as it was hundreds of years ago. And if you just spend time with people and you get to know them, you can offer the best care. – Dr. Clarence Lee Jr. We want to create a community to reimagine what health care should look like compared to what it looks like today. – Dr. Dung Trinh Other Resources: MDDAO Exhort Health About the Guest: Dr. Clarence Lee Jr., is a Christian encourager, nationally celebrated author, international speaker, and CEO of CMLEEJR Co., a professional development enterprise that conducts live training experiences on high performance and mental conditioning for teams, organizations, and students.

A Discussion on Medical Marijuana - Chat with Kandice Hawes 56:53

3 years ago56:53

56:53

The use of Cannabidiol (CBD) as medication was first approved by the FDA two years ago to treat childhood seizures. Most Americans now use this as an anti-inflammatory, anti-anxiety, and anti-insomnia drug. CBD continues to show potential as an alternative - or even primary - medication or treatment for various ailments. More studies are needed to verify. Is CBD safe? This is a question asked by most people curious about this form of treatment. Let’s learn about that in this episode as Kandice Hawes of OCNORML talks about the continuously growing interest in cannabis and how their nonprofit provides a network and welcoming space for both businesses and consumers that advocate for its use. Memorable Quotes: Looking from a religious perspective, I have to ask myself: did God create an evil plant? Did we just screw it up or was this marijuana plant created to have potential health benefits? — Dr. Dung Trinh We have to change our thinking that these people aren't pushers, but healers. — Paul Roberts I hope that we will one day have the right to travel with cannabis. — Kandice Hawes We should take away the penalties and change the stigma about how they treat people that use cannabis. — Kandice Hawes Other Resources: My Jane, My Story orangecountynorml.org Important Points: Growing up in American culture, we were taught that marijuana is a sin but looking at its potential positive benefits, medical marijuana can be used in treating pain, anxiety, and insomnia The cannabis industry, especially medical cannabis and CBD, is in its early phases of scientific research. This means that we don't have a dose to recommend for right now. Many folks are just starting CBD at a very low dose. And then they're titrating up very slowly. It's done that way mainly for safety reasons. Nobody dies from Cannabis. Smoking is not the best way to use cannabis, but for some people that need immediate relief, smoking or inhalation cannabis is the mode of choice. There are patches that can stick to your skin for 24 hours and deliver you cannabidiol throughout the day. About the Guests: Kandice Hawes-Lopez is the Founder of Orange County NORML , Director of Community Outreach in Glass House Brands Inc , and Principal Officer at Committee To Support Medical Marijuana Ballot Initiative. About the Host: Dung Trinh, MD is the Chief Medical Officer of Irvine Clinical Research , medical missionary with TongueOut Medical Missions, and holds leadership positions with multiple health care organizations in Orange County.

Hushing the Cytokine Storm in COVID-19 with Dr. Raymond Chang 47:44

3 years ago47:44

47:44

Our immune system is our body’s natural defense system that fights against foreign invaders such as viruses like Coronavirus. When this immune system overreacts, it leads to chronic inflammation and damages multiple organs – often resulting in death. Post-COVID syndrome or long COVID is a long-term effect that you can generally have from COVID-19. It may happen that you already survived the virus, however, it doesn’t mean that the damage has already gone. How is this connected to the Cytokine storm? Let’s learn about that in this episode with Dr. Raymond Chang, a Medical Director of South County Kidney and Endocrine Center and Chairman of the Orange County Endocrine Society, who was also once a COVID “Long-Hauler”. Memorable Quotes: When the virus is getting through a cytokine storm, your immune system becomes even stronger to the point where your body doesn't recognize the virus. As a result, your body attacks the virus and your normal self, as well. — Dr. Raymond Chang COVID virus enters the body through a receptacle called H2 receptors, which are more abundant in overweight patients. This is why overweight patients are more at risk for COVID-19. — Dr. Raymond Chang When the virus is gone, the damage remains. — Dr. Dung Trinh Be strong and hang in there. The virus in your body will die and once it dies, you’re going to be able to recover. So hang in there as long as you can. — Dr. Raymong Chang Other Resources: South County Kidney and Endocrine Center Important Points: Endocrinology is the study of hormones Interleukin 6 is a marker blood test to measure your body's inflammatory state. Inflammation is part of the immune system's response to fight viruses, bacteria, or toxins. Chronic long-term inflammation or inflammation that is excessive damages your own body. The blood-brain barrier is an actual barrier that is designed to protect your brain from everything else that's potentially dangerous in your body. About the Guests: Raymond K.J. Chang, M.D. is the Medical Director of South County Kidney and Endocrine Center . He is a Diplomate of the American College of Endocrinology, Nephrology, Internal Medicine, and Hospital Physicians. He’s also currently the Chairman of the Orange County Endocrine Society and is the author and Editor-Chief of a National Internal Medicine Board Review book. He is a national speaker for current treatments and therapies pertaining to Diabetes, Lipids, and Chronic Kidney Disease. His philosophy is to treat every patient as if they were his own family member; hence, is always an advocate for his patient's healthcare.

Dental health is mostly neglected by people because they either find it scary, unaffordable, or they’re just too busy for it. Oftentimes, people also tend to ignore it when they do not feel any pain or they just don’t see any problems with their teeth. Nevertheless, dental health is also an integral part of our overall health, and neglecting it could lead to more serious diseases. In this episode, we will learn if dental health could really be associated with chronic diseases like Alzheimer’s.

How Spirituality Affects Your Mental Health & Aids in the Healing Process with Eithne Keegan 49:22

3 years ago49:22

49:22

In a world where we’re constantly flooded with much more than we can handle, may we not forget to seek something to lean on for strength and hope. Healthcare providers – particularly nurses, can best establish a relationship with their patients by fostering a relationship with them to promote healing and wellness. Mind-body-spirit means that wellness does not only come from physical health but mental and spiritual health, as well. And to be healthy, we should always take a look at these three aspects of our nature. In this episode, let’s listen to the different stories of healing through spiritual and mental support with Eithne Keegan - a Faith Community Nurse serving as an RN Advocate for the Hoag Faith Community Nursing Program. Memorable Quotes: Sometimes, one prayer with a patient is probably the most important thing that they have gotten out of the office visit. — Dr. Dung Trinh Maybe healing has a different definition to God. It may mean that you’re done with your suffering and then come back to him. — Dr. Dung Trinh Know that you are loved. — Eithne Keegan Remember that even the homeless persons are children of God and He loves them as much as He loves you. — Eithne Keegan Hug somebody today. — Eithne Keegan Other Resources: hcfusa.com hcfusa53@gmail.com Important Points: Because of burnout and all the things happening to their workplace, many people are going back to their religion. Asking for consent is the most important thing. Nursing is a vocation that provides holistic care that doctors cannot give.

Despite the millions of Ukrainian refugees heading to nearby countries, there are still some who choose to stay on the ground and continue to fight. The Russian attacks are horrific atrocities and have caused immense suffering, fear, and heartbreak. These people are the ones experiencing traumas and fears from getting tortured and arrested for no reason. But why would they stay in their country rather than become a refugee? When would this war end? How can Americans help the Ukrainians? What are they doing on the ground? Let’s hear out the people who are there and living through the nightmare. Today is a rare opportunity to hear four brave women telling stories of what they’re seeing and experiencing in Ukraine. Don’t miss this special episode of Health Talks with Dr. Trinh! Memorable Quotes: Russia didn’t ever expect Ukraine as a flourished country. — Nika Bielska Let’s not confuse refugees with social-economical opportunists. — Valentyna Lyevlyeva I can’t communicate with my relatives in Russia because they would also say that our army is killing our people and we should open our eyes. — Valery Shyrokova My child shouldn't live in an apartment of people that I have never seen nor sleep in the bed of people that I have never seen. — Valery Shyrokova Nothing will ever be more important than human values. — Tatiana Grinuova Important Points: People usually misunderstand that Russia and Ukraine have the same ancestors when they were just united by the Soviet Union and Ukraine has more in common with Poland. We can’t imagine when and how will the Russo-Ukrainian war end. Just from one hit, the whole country felt unsafe. About the Guests: Nika Bielska is the founder and CEO of Postweb.Digital and a scientist at Epigenetics laboratory, D.F.Chebotarev State Institute of Gerontology NAMS of Ukraine Tatiana Grinuova is the founder of Kind Challenge , a charity fundraising platform in Ukraine.

Integrating Christian and Biblical Principles to a Healthier Brain Function with Dr. Timothy Jennings 48:42

3 years ago48:42

48:42

God designed people to be biologically wired to have fear to make us aware of impending danger and take action against it. Fear is an internal mitigation tool against risk. But if not controlled, we easily get manipulated by fear, which holds us back from taking the next step to success. As we live in a feeling-based world, no one can ever invalidate how we feel. But feelings can lie frequently and not all feelings are accurate towards reality. When we stay being chronically fearful, our body is activating the inflammatory factors that affect our physical health. As a consequence, it accelerates aging and contributes to illnesses. In short, harmonious health and life promote better health. In this week’s episode, we are joined by Dr. Timothy Jennnings to share the integration and biblical principles to a healthier brain function. Dr. Jennings is the President and Founder of Come and Reason Ministries and has published books such as Could It Be This Simple? and The God-Shaped Brain . Memorable Quotes: It's significantly destructive to us when we react to fear because fear contributes to illness and accelerates aging. — Dr. Timothy Jennings We must present truth and facts that empower people to be able to make intelligent decisions — Dr. Timothy Jennings Fear may hold us back from taking the next step to getting a better career or knowing a healthy relationship. — Dr. Dung Trinh Let's look at faith, use reason and science, and then compare that to the real world. — Paul Roberts Other Resources: https://comeandreason.com/ Important Points: The laws of health are the laws upon which health and life operate and function, and as you harmonize with them you promote better health. Fear, from any cause that is chronic in nature, activates the immune system which kicks up inflammatory factors and undermines physical health. When you are socially isolated, you have a higher mortality rate. You can't fight illnesses, as well. You have more cancer rates, depression, or dementia. Much of the fear is driven by misinformation, falsehoods, and propaganda. It's not being driven by actual science or evidence. What you believe means how you feel; how you feel means what you do, and what you do leads to certain results. About the Guests: Timothy R. Jennings, MD is a board-certified Christian psychiatrist, master psychopharmacologist, international speaker, a distinguished fellow of the American Psychiatric Association, and a fellow of the Southern Psychiatric Association. His books include Could It Be This Simple? and The God-Shaped Brain.
