RAF390: Aging Reversed! Part 3 - The Information Theory

Running: A FEVER ·

2025/02/12

We're getting deeper into our series on Aging Reversed. As I say at the beginning of every episode, my goal is to live a long, healthy, happy, active life right up to the end. This year I want to focus more on these simple topics and this series is about the "long" part. I take my inspiration from the book "Lifespan" by David Sinclair, which, if you have the stomach for some deep technical stuff, I recommend you read. The theory is that aging can be halted, or even turned in reverse, if we devote

RAF389: Aging Reversed Part 2 - Aging as a Disease

Running: A FEVER ·

2025/02/05

Last episode we talked about the topics we're going to be covering in this series about the possibility of stopping or even reversing the aging process, how that can happen, and the ethics and implications to society this revolution might bring. This time we're going to go in depth on the first of these topics, reclassifying aging as a disease: the idea of aging as a treatable disease and its implications for medical research and funding.

RAF388: Aging Reversed! Part 1 - Introduction

Running: A FEVER ·

2025/01/29

I am very excited about the series we are starting today. In every episode, I state my goal: to live a long, healthy, happy, active life right up to the end. I want to focus more on these simple topics this year, and we're starting with the "long" part. Living a long life has been a common desire as long as humans have inhabited Earth. Though its origins are much earlier, since the 16th century and the travels of Juan Ponce de Leon, the legend of the Fountain of Youth has been a symbol of this

RAF387: Living to 100 - Maria Branyas

Running: A FEVER ·

2025/01/22

Last episode, you got the list of the 10 longest-lived people, and a new person was on the list. Unfortunately, she died in August of 2024, so there are no living people on the list for now. But she made it, nonetheless. What did she do that got her to the ripe age of 117? Are there any clues that might help some of us get there? This episode aims to determine that by looking at the life of Maria Branyas, the 8th oldest-lived person ever. Read the full post at http://RunningAFEVER.com/387 Photo byy

RAF386: Living to 100 2025

Running: A FEVER ·

2025/01/15

And now it's time for the perennial favorite top 10 list of the oldest people ever. I'm a little surprised to realize that I didn't actually do one of these in 2024. So I'm sure anticipation for this episode is running high. Living to be 100 is still very rare, but according to a 2024 estimate by the United Nations, there are 722,000 centenarians around the world (a centenarian is a person who lives to be 100 years ole), and that number is growing fast. It is a huge 22% increase from 2023. Read

RAF385: Intro to Pulse Oximetry

2025/01/08

First of all, I want to say to all you podcast listeners that an unboxing video is included in the video version of this episode. You can see it on the blog page at http://RunningAFEVER.com/385 if you want to watch it. Well, since there was an unboxing, I guess you can figure out that I got my own pulse oximeter. It's pretty simple to use; you turn it on and clamp it on your finger, and the display shows a percentage number. But what does it mean, and why is it important? It must be important in

RAF384: Back Knack

Running: A FEVER ·

2025/01/01

First of all, back problems are not new to me. I've had my share for sure. I know that going back to episode 53, that was when I started having pain in my arm and pain in my back. I went to a neurosurgeon, and that was when my Forestier's was diagnosed. Recently, in the past few months, I guess, when I have gone out on the Lake Fayetteville trail, where I have been hundreds of times, I would go out, and before I was halfway through, my back would start hurting, and I would have to rest, sometimes

RAF383: The Epidemic of Obesity

Running: A FEVER ·

2024/12/25

The topic I am addressing today is near and dear to my heart because I have been obese for most of my adult life. It is also such a large topic with a volume of information that makes it impossible to address in a single episode. Perhaps a short series may be a better way to address it at some point in the future. But for now, I want to give an overview of the situation as best I can, and I hope to hear some feedback from you on what areas you would like to hear more about. Please comment on this

RAF382: The CORAL COVID-19 Studies

2024/12/18

As I mentioned in the last episode, these topics have been a long time coming. They were first brought up in Episode 220. Check that out at http://RunningAFEVER.com/220. That episode also mentioned a study that had just started called the CORAL study. Read the full post at http://RunningAFEVER.com/382

RAF381: Long Covid 2024

Running: A FEVER ·

2024/12/11

I've wanted to do an episode on Long COVID since way back in July of 2020. It was actually episode 220 when I first mentioned it. At that time there was essentially no knowledge of the long-term effects. Which makes sense, because the episode was recorded only 8 months after the first appearance of COVID-19 in November of 2019. Now it's been almost five years, and there is now a wealth of data. In episode 220 I also mentioned a study called the CORAL study that had just been up and running for a

RAF380: Braces

2024/12/04

So, the big news is I've got braces. I've got braces for the first time in probably 45 years. I can't remember exactly how old I was when I had my braces the first time, but I was very young. Why am I getting braces? Well, I'm concerned about my appearance. I have to look good for the podcast. I have to look handsome for you people and have a bright smile, and have everything in place. So that's why I'm doing this. I have some plastic surgery coming up too. Just kidding! Read the full post at

RAF379: Dental Health Part 10 - Conclusion

Running: A FEVER ·

2024/11/27

Going into this series I knew good oral care was important. That's why I chose to do the series. But I honestly had no idea how important it really is. I'm concerned about my risk of stroke and heart disease. I've been overweight most of my life, I have high blood pressure, and my parents have both had strokes. I really didn't know the extent to which bad oral care (or genetic factors in oral health) could impact my risk in those areas in particular. It gives me new motivation to treat my teeth and

RAF378: Dental Health Part 9 - Whole Body Health

2024/11/20

The dental area is not a stand-alone system. It interacts with the other systems in the body. Dental problems are so closely tied to disorders in other parts of the body that sometimes your dentist may be the first to notice the problem because dental conditions can lead to other diseases in the body.

Hopefully you can see that this series aligns with my philosophy of becoming an expert at your own health. You'll need to tap into that philosophy to build your health plan. Some of the answers you'll know from experience. For example, you have dry mouth or take some medications that can cause it. However, you may have to talk with your dentist or hygienist about the many other risk factors you could have. You can use this series as a guide.

RAF376: Dental Health Part 7 - Action - Protection

Running: A FEVER ·

2024/11/06

This is episode 7 in our 10-part series on dental health. We've already talked about dry mouth, diet, biofilm, genetics, and pH. The objective is not to preach about sweets, brushing, and flossing but to find the causes of dental health problems, understanding that many of these problems are not our fault at all and may be completely out of our control, like genetics and dry mouth. With this newfound knowledge, we'll have a better idea of what actions to take to improve. Read the full post at

We've gotten to the 6th installment of this series all about healthy and unhealthy teeth. Our focus is not on the brushing, flossing, and avoiding sweets that you've heard about all your life.

It's #4 in our series on taking care of your teeth. The difference from what you may have heard before is that we are exploring the why and how of the problems that happen in the mouth. With that knowledge, I think we can understand the link between the causes and the solutions to provide a better plan for dental health. At least, that's the plan.

This episode will be focused on diet. How does our diet affect our teeth and mouth positively and/or negatively? What can we do to improve this aspect of our health by eating differently? And what foods exactly are good and bad for us when it comes to the dental area? I hope to answer these questions and more in this episode. And if you have a question that I don't answer today, one of the best ways to ask it is to do so in a comment to this video. Just scroll down and start typing. I'll be notified
