Another foray into the wide world of SUPPLEMENTS, friends! Let's talk COLLAGEN this time.
What IS collagen? Well, in short, it's, uh... us. Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body. It accounts for about 30% of your body’s total protein.
It is the primary building block of your body’s connective tissues: skin, muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments, etc.
So.. does consuming it (as marketed by supplement companies) actually IMPROVE any of those parts of you?? Or is this just another trick by the "wellness" industry to freak us out (even more) about bodily changes that the majority of human beings will experience, to some degree, in the normal course of aging?
This week Jeremy presents a detailed dissertation on collagen consumption!
Your Doctor Friends aim to answer all your collagen questions! What does the research suggest? Can we even absorb collagen by eating it in supplement form? Can it improve your skin? What about your joints? Does it make arthritis better? Is there a particular TYPE of collagen that has potential positive impact on our health? Is it crazy expensive?? Am I eating BONES??
(listen in to find out ;)

The Cleveland Clinic's informational page about collagen.
An article/lit review/meta-analysis from the American Journal of Translational Research evaluating the efficacy of undenatured collagen in knee osteoarthritis.

Sedation and delirium can derail even the strongest patient's recovery in the ICU - but spontaneous awakening trials (SATs) can empower nurses to get ahead of this vicious cycle. In this candid episode, I pick the brain of Kali Dayton, an ICU nurse practitioner fervent about early mobility. Kali pulls back the curtain on SATs, a tragically misunderstood intervention that involves stopping sedatives each day to reconnect with the patient. With a mix of hard data and bedside wisdom, Kali reveals SATs as a game-changer for bettering outcomes like delirium, ventilator days, and the chance of discharge to home. You'll hear practical tips on everything from managing agitated awakenings to recruiting family as awakening coaches. Whether you're routinely pawing through SAT policies or clueless about this critical care practice, this lively dialogue will upend assumptions about sedation and empower you to maximize your impact.

On episode 465 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith interviews Jocelyn Johnson, MSN, RN, the author of A Path Forward: My Journey to Find Healing Through Integrative Medicine. In the course of their conversation, Keith and Jocelyn discuss the book, which is part memoir and part guidebook on successfully healing cancer via a holistic approach, including a raw foods diet and spiritual practices geared towards transformational healing.
Jocelyn Johnson, MSN, RN, is a clinical nurse specialist in mental health with over twenty-five years of clinical experience. After a brief career in aerospace engineering, she pursued health and spirituality interests and moved into a nursing career. Her continued studies included functional medicine, Kundalini yoga and meditation, Buddhist perspectives in consciousness, and therapeutic nutrition. These viewpoints of mind, body, and spirit health grounded her unusual holistic cancer success story.
With retirement from clinical practice, Johnson's focus is on sharing the tools of her health recovery. She hopes to empower others to curate personal well-being and to foster change in how cancer is viewed and treated.

ONCE UPON A GENE - EPISODE 221
BeginNGS - Newborn Genomic Sequencing to End the Diagnostic Odyssey with Dr. Stephen Kingsmore, Wendy Erler and Tom DeFay
I'm joined by Dr. Stephen Kingsmore, Wendy Erler and Tom DeFay to discuss BeginNGS, a ground-breaking initiative that stands at the forefront of genetic sequencing and rare disease diagnosis.
EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS
What led to the creation of BeginNGS?
Rare genetic diseases are an immense health ecosystem challenge- receiving a timely diagnosis. On average, it takes 4.8 years to diagnose a child with a genetic disease, and meanwhile, symptoms continue to worsen and the disease progresses. The goal of BeginNGS is to prevent or reduce the impact on children with rare genetic diseases, minimizing suffering, cost and delay of diagnosis.
Why is BeginNGS an important initiative to support?
Anyone connected to the rare disease community shares the same vision for a world where every rare disease patient receives the right effective treatment at the right time. That starts with changing the diagnostic odyssey and ensuring early, fast diagnosis.
What is the mission of the BeginNGS Consortium?
The BeginNGS Consortium is a partnership of pharmaceutical and biotech companies, sharing a vision of the right effective treatment at the right time. Our vision is ultimately to ensure every baby born in the United States has the opportunity to be screened for rare disorders. What differentiates this program and the consortium is that the patient communities have been represented from the beginning and the patient population communities has been impressive. Some of our working groups are led by members of the patient community to make sure that what's delivered is valuable to the patients.
What are the major pain points to leveraging newborn screening for preventable disorders and broad use of rapid diagnostic genome sequencing?
Pediatricians rarely order genome sequencing. We estimate only 2% of children who need the testing get it. Additionally, even when testing is ordered, it doesn't always translate into optimal treatments and there can still be delays in life-saving treatments.
What does the future look like for BeginNGS?
The BeginNGS Consortium is comprised of rare disease advocacy organizations, parent support groups, healthcare systems, policy makers, experts in academic medicine, biotech companies developing new genome sequencing methods and pharmaceutical companies developing new treatments for rare genetic diseases. We hope to increase the size of the consortium so we can grow the organization and capture every voice and represent every genetic disease. Another strong aspiration is to raise grant support and funding to complete and deploy our pivotal clinical trial.
