Knowledge check in Brugada syndrome : A rapid fire session
A 5-minute session: Answers are my own. Please cross-check.
1. Is Brugada syndrome clinical or ECG diagnosis?
Always clinical. Never get confused on this.
2. Spontaneous type 1 vs Induced Type 1 (from type 2) which carries more risk?
Both are risky since they are close cousins. But, spontaneous type 1 is the dreaded devil.
3. Is Brugada primarily a defect of myocardial depolarization or repolarisation?
Not clear. Often in both. In fact a mismatch between them. (Don’t ask how Na+ Channel defect affects repolarisation !)
4. Is Brugada VT is monomorphic, polymorphic?
Both. What determines m...

Food Intolerances: A Warning of Bad Things Ahead
I’ve recently discussed how the majority of food intolerances, whether to FODMAPs, histamine, nightshades, fructose, etc., are really manifestations of dysbiosis and SIBO. Here is another way to view these phenomena: Food intolerances are your body’s signal to you that serious deterioration in your health is coming.
In other words, if all you do is choose to reduce or eliminate the offending food, you are still left with the massive disruption of your intestinal microbiome that caused the food intolerance in the first place, along with increased intestinal permeability and endotoxemia. So say you eliminate ferm...

A Jekyll And Hyde Emotion? Research On Anger, Digested
This study provided evidence of “the important role of anger in the psychological process underlying moral courage,” the team wrote. Of course, a person’s individual moral framework is crucial here, though. If the sight of women venturing outdoors alone or going to work, say, deeply offends you, then your resulting outrage will likely propel you to action, too.
Expressing anger can also make you seem more authentic and sincere. At least, this was suggested by a 2021 study of Kickstarter pitch videos. Entrepreneurs are often encouraged to be only positive about their ventures, commented the researchers. But they fo...

September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month: Get Educated!
The prostate, a mall organ located just below the bladder and in front of the rectum, can cause men a lot of anxiety and trouble as they age. It wraps around the urethra (the tube that carries urine and semen out of the body). As men age, the prostate tends to grow larger which can eventually cause any number of health issues including urine retention, but it can become cancerous, as well.
Read more on the Egosancares blog about prostate function and why things go wrong:

4 Reasons to Support Sustainability
When President Biden entered office, he enhanced the national sustainability standards. As we develop an eco-friendly infrastructure, we adopt new technologies and systems that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Society may accept the alterations without understanding the expansive benefits.
By exploring sustainability’s advantages, individuals are more likely to support the transition away from fossil fuels. Utilizing electric appliances, adopting an eco-friendly diet, eliminating fast fashion purchases and more can shrink one’s carbon footprint while enhancing savings. Over time, sustainable commercial and individua...

Mindfulness Can Help Us Overcome Our Deepest Fears
Mindfulness is all the rage for multiple reasons. This practice helps you halt future fears and ruminations about an immutable past and live in the present moment. That isn’t the only benefit you can reap, however.
Mindfulness allows you to capture what neurologist and Holocaust survivor Victor Frankl describes as freedom — the pause between an external stimulus and your reaction to it. Here’s how you can use this practice to help you overcome your deepest fears.

The explosion of mental health apps raises substantial opportunities –and tough questions
In the eyes of the tech industry, mental health treatment is an area ripe for disruption.
In any given year, 1 in 5 adults in the U.S. experience a form of mental illness, according to federal estimates. And research indicates only about half of them receive treatment in a system that is understaffed and ill distributed to meet demand.
For tech startups looking to cash in on unmet need, that translates into more than 50 million potential customers.
Venture capital firms invested more than $2.4 billion in digital behavioral health apps in 2020 — more than twice the amount invested in 2019 — touting support or treatment ...

Daughter Wants to Help Mom Give Dad Wonderful Last Father ’s Day
Photo credit Seth Hays
Dear Carol: Father’s Day is coming up and my mom wants to make Dad’s day special because it’s probably his last one. My brother and I want this too, but how to make it work is where we disagree with Mom. Dad’s been in a nursing home because of several health problems, but terminal cancer is what will take him soon. The problem is that Mom’s physically frail herself and worse, her decision-making is shaky, so we feel that she’s being unrealistic. Dad’s in pain and he tires easily. He needs a wheelchair, and Mom’s apartment has steps. He’s also on oxygen. While we understand whe...

Anxiety During Social Outings May Have Worsened for People with Dementia
Photo image Sander Weeteling
Dear Carol: My husband is only 56 but he has early-onset Alzheimer’s. I’ve done my best during COVID to keep him interested in activities and Zoom calls with the kids and friends. Now that we’re vaccinated, he could go out more but I’m having trouble finding the line between giving him the social exposure that’s recommended and pushing him into anxiety. Since he’s still in the earlier stage of dementia, the doctor wants to wait before trying antianxiety medications. Our kids think now that it’s safer I should have him out more. In a way they are right, but he can’t seem t...

6 Ways Our Bodies Try to Tell Us Something is Wrong
Your body is a pretty incredible specimen, if you think about it. So many different systems work in tandem to keep you alive and well.
Still, things can go wrong — and a machine as finely tuned as the human body has its ways of telling you that it needs your attention. Some are quite obvious, and you’ve probably experienced them. But sometimes, the message is much more subtle.
Here are six of the more unexpected ways your body might be telling you that something’s up — and what each sign means for you and your health.
1. Your Eyes Have Gone Dry
Normally, your eyes would stay lubricated with yo...

Stressed Caregiver Can Increase Anxiety in Someone with Dementia
Photo credit Tim Doerfler
Dear Carol: My mom’s been living with Alzheimer’s for several years and Dad refuses to get any help with her. My sister and I have begged him to place Mom in memory care because the facilities where they live are good, but he has always adored her and feels like he must be her protector. We’re afraid for both of them because while he means well, her care is getting too difficult. He still says the right words, but his body language shows his stress level is high and he’s becoming impatient which is unlike him. I’m sure his stress is affecting Mom, too, and making her more anxious. That, ...
