Join us for a deeply inspiring episode originating from Houston, Texas, where I bring my perspective as a liver disease specialist and my 23 years of broadcasting experience on both SiriusXM and iHeartRadio to a special conversation on The Catholic Channel (SiriusXM Channel 129).


In this episode, I had the privilege of interviewing Shannon Bream, the acclaimed host of Fox News Sunday and the bestselling author behind The Women of the Bible Speak series. We sat down to discuss her new #1 New York Times bestseller, Nothing Is Impossible with God.


Shannon’s new book offers a fresh collection of biblical stories designed to comfort and equip readers who feel stuck in a spiritual rut. She reminds us that the Christian life doesn’t always look like the happy, holy stained-glass images we remember from childhood. Instead, we look at the very real, gritty struggles of biblical heroes—Moses facing constant curveballs, Daniel maintaining integrity in exile, Joseph dealing with severe family trauma, Jonah running from his mission, Elijah battling extreme loneliness, and Peter’s impulsive journey to becoming the "rock" of the faith. Through all their trials, they found abounding peace, reminding us that God promises to be with us through the storm.


During our interview, we not only delve into the book and highlight some of Shannon’s favorite passages, but we also explore a topic very close to my heart as a medical professional: the profound intersection of faith, religious belief, and personal wellness. We discuss how the spiritual resilience, hope, and courage found in these biblical narratives interface directly with our physical health and recovery processes.


Whether you are facing a medical challenge, navigating a difficult season in life, or simply seeking a reminder that God can use you right where you are, this conversation will leave you inspired and equipped to face life's challenges. Tune in to discover why, no matter the obstacle, nothing is impossible with Him.

Over the last decade, the untucked look has become the go‑to style for men. Longer, looser, casually hanging over the belt. It’s marketed as modern, relaxed, confident.


But I believe, for many men, it’s become something else: a Band‑Aid. A way to camouflage a growing waistline—and with it, a growing health crisis.


As abdominal girth increases, so does visceral fat—the fat wrapped around your organs. And that’s not just a cosmetic issue. It raises the risk of type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, stroke, fatty liver, and even kidney disease.

Instead of a tight waistband or snug buttons being a wake‑up call to move more, eat better, and see a doctor, many men are quietly solving the problem by just sizing up and leaving the shirt untucked. The clothes get looser, the danger gets larger, and the warning signs get easier to ignore.


The fashion industry isn’t in the business of being the obesity police. Their job is to sell you what you’ll buy. My job, as a physician who sees an overwhelming number of men with obesity‑related fatty liver disease, is to tell you what that extra fabric might really be hiding—and what it could cost you long term.


This episode is a wake‑up call. Not to shame anyone’s body, but to challenge the comfort of camouflage. The untucked shirt shouldn’t be a shield against reality. It should be a reminder to check in on your health before chronic disease sets the terms.


So let’s pull back the fabric, look at what’s really going on underneath, and talk about how to change the trajectory—while there’s still time.

Today, we'll explore how taking an honest inventory of your pantry, refrigerator, and freezer serves as a revealing window into your current nutritional status and overall health trajectory. The foods that fill your shelves tell a story: homes stocked with processed foods, sugary snacks, and frozen convenience meals often reflect eating patterns that increase the risk of chronic diseases like diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. Meanwhile, kitchens abundant with fresh fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, nuts, beans, and legumes typically belong to households with a health-conscious mindset.


We'll uncover how grocery stores use sophisticated marketing strategies to steer you toward their high-margin, highly processed products, and I'll challenge you to examine what your food choices reveal about your health priorities. So grab a cup of coffee (which is a great source of anti-oxidants) and join me as we explore this eye-opening exercise—because the path to better health might just start with opening your pantry door and asking yourself: am I looking at beans, nuts, and wholesome ingredients, or am I staring at a collection of sweets, snacks, and frozen pizzas?

Today, we're delving into a deeply important, yet often challenging, subject: hospice care and the intricate world of end-of-life decision-making. These are conversations many understandably shy away from, but as you'll hear, they are profoundly necessary, and ideally, they should take place long before a critical health crisis ever arises. We are incredibly fortunate to have a true expert guide us through this discussion: my sister, Celeste Galati. Celeste is an experienced nurse who specializes in hospice care, and she joins us to illuminate her many years of dedicated work with patients and their families. Throughout this episode, Celeste will share invaluable insights and practical strategies for addressing the complex needs of individuals facing a terminal illness, and just as importantly, supporting the families who are suffering alongside them. We’ll explore what exactly hospice care and end-of-life care truly entail, clearly define the distinctions between palliative care and hospice, and dismantle some prevalent misunderstandings surrounding these crucial topics. Get ready for an honest, compassionate, and incredibly informative conversation that underscores why these difficult discussions, though challenging, are absolutely essential to have well in advance. #hospice #palliativecare #endoflife

We were honored to host Natalie Oliver, a distinguished Physician Assistant from our liver disease practice, Liver Specialists of Texas, as our special guest.


Fatty liver disease, officially known as Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD, formerly NAFLD/MAFLD), has emerged as an exceptionally prevalent and concerning health issue impacting millions. Natalie brought a fresh and thought-provoking perspective to the discussion, suggesting that perhaps we should begin to perceive fatty liver disease through the lens of a "contagious" condition.


To be absolutely clear, we are not implying that fatty liver disease is contagious in the conventional sense of an infectious illness, like the flu or measles, which are spread by viruses or bacteria. Rather, Natalie highlighted a profound observation: in households where one individual has been diagnosed with fatty liver disease, there is a remarkably high incidence of other family members, including spouses and children, also suffering from the condition.


This intriguing pattern leads to the understanding that there are specific, deeply ingrained, and often well-defined lifestyle habits that are shared among household members. These collective behaviors inadvertently create an "obesogenic" environment, significantly elevating the risk for all residents of that home to develop fatty liver disease. For instance, families typically share the same meal planning and dining experiences, which might involve diets high in processed foods, unhealthy fats, and excessive sugars. Furthermore, a lack of regular physical activity, prolonged sedentary behaviors, and other detrimental lifestyle choices can be deeply embedded within the family unit.


It is this shared behavioral epidemiology that gives rise to the powerful analogy of fatty liver as a "contagious" disease – a contagion of unhealthy habits rather than pathogens.


Therefore, our urgent recommendation is profoundly clear: if even one member of a household has been diagnosed with fatty liver disease, there is a very high probability that other individuals within that household may also unknowingly harbor the condition. Consequently, we strongly advise comprehensive screening for all family members to facilitate early detection and intervention.


We invite you to listen to the full, insightful interview with Natalie Oliver to delve deeper into this critical topic and form your own informed conclusions on this unconventional yet insightful perspective.

Dr. Siegel is a clinical professor of medicine at NYU Langone Health and a senior medical analyst for Fox News, where he has become a trusted voice in explaining complex medical issues to millions of viewers. Over the years, he has covered everything from global pandemics to everyday health concerns, always with a focus on translating cutting-edge science into practical guidance for patients and families.


In this episode, we dive into his latest book, Miracles Among Us, a compelling exploration of extraordinary recoveries, unexpected turnarounds, and the powerful intersection of science, faith, and the human spirit. Dr. Siegel shares the stories behind some of the most remarkable cases he’s encountered—illustrating how resilience, medical innovation, and sometimes the inexplicable can shape outcomes in ways that defy expectation. The book not only highlights “miraculous” moments in medicine but also underscores the importance of hope, empathy, and connection in the healing process.


Beyond the book, we tackle several of today’s most urgent health topics, including the obesity epidemic, fatty liver disease, and the changing landscape of nutrition guidance—what some are calling the “new food pyramid.” Dr. Siegel also weighs in on the rapidly growing use of GLP-1 agonist medications and their role in combating chronic disease and obesity, discussing both their promise and their limitations. Tune in to hear a wide-ranging, insightful discussion that blends storytelling, science, and practical advice to help you better understand your health and the future of medicine.

As airports have grown larger and more sprawling, passengers are now required to walk much longer distances from drop-off points to their gates. For many, especially older adults and those with chronic health conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obesity, this extended walking can impose a significant physical strain. This increased demand on the circulatory system can lead to heightened risks of cardiovascular events, particularly in individuals who are already out of shape or managing ongoing health issues.


The stress of running late to catch a flight compounds this risk, activating the sympathetic nervous system and increasing the possibility of heart attacks and strokes. Data has shown that airports are actually hotspots for cardiovascular emergencies, with some studies indicating that up to 10% of all sudden cardiac events occur in or around airport environments. For example, a 2016 study published in the Journal of Travel Medicine found that the incidence of cardiac arrests is significantly higher in airports compared to other public locations, often due to the combination of physical exertion and stress-related factors. This underscores how the airport environment, with its long walking distances and time pressures, can unfortunately contribute to emergency situations, especially among vulnerable populations.


Adding to these concerns, many travelers are burdened with heavy luggage, often lifting bags weighing 20 to 30 pounds into overhead bins. This strenuous activity poses a real risk of musculoskeletal injury, especially for those unaccustomed to such exertion. Improper lifting technique or fatigue can lead to strains, sprains, or worse. Overall, modern airports, while convenient, present unique health challenges that deserve attention—not just for the safety of the individual traveler but also for the healthcare systems that respond to emergencies in these busy transit hubs.

While we all offer him our best wishes and support, the announcement has sparked considerable discussion about how this may have unfolded.

Over the past 15 years, strategies for prostate cancer screening have evolved significantly. The use of the blood test known as prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has been at the center of research and clinical debate. In earlier years, even mildly elevated PSA levels often led to prostate biopsies. However, growing concerns about overdiagnosis and overtreatment have led to more conservative approaches, with many physicians opting for careful monitoring rather than immediate invasive procedures.


It is unclear exactly how this approach factored into President Biden’s case. However, in speaking with several leading prostate cancer experts in the Houston area, there was broad agreement: it’s likely that his PSA levels had been elevated over time, but the decision was made to monitor the situation closely rather than proceed with a biopsy right away.


Whether or not political considerations influenced the timing or manner of this diagnosis is something that will likely be debated in the weeks, months, and years to come.

]]> On this week’s broadcast of YOUR HEALTH FIRST, we discussed several important health news items, including the recent diagnosis of prostate cancer in President Biden. 


While we all offer him our best wishes and support, the announcement has sparked considerable discussion about how this may have unfolded.

Over the past 15 years, strategies for prostate cancer screening have evolved significantly. The use of the blood test known as prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has been at the center of research and clinical debate. In earlier years, even mildly elevated PSA levels often led to prostate biopsies. However, growing concerns about overdiagnosis and overtreatment have led to more conservative approaches, with many physicians opting for careful monitoring rather than immediate invasive procedures.

In this LATEST PODCAST episode, we dive into the concept of "Medical Whack-a-Mole," a term I coined to describe the all-too-frequent scenario in healthcare where physicians treat individual problems by passing patients from one specialist to another. This process often leads to patients being prescribed a staggering number of medications—sometimes even as many as 28, as seen in a recent case involving a patient managing five chronic conditions under six different doctors.


Join me as I unpack this concerning phenomenon and share personal insights from my experience. We'll explore the implications of overmedication and how it detrimentally impacts patient health and wellness, undermining the very goal of making America healthy again. Together, we’ll discuss empowering patients to become better consumers of their healthcare, raising their health IQ, and advocating for themselves. Discover why it's essential to disrupt the whack-a-mole cycle of treatment and take control of chronic disease management, because the stakes couldn't be higher. Tune in for a crucial conversation about reshaping the future of healthcare for the betterment of all.

The New York Times article from April 23, 2025, discusses a study identifying 17 overlapping factors that influence the risk of stroke, dementia, and late-life depression. The research emphasizes that lifestyle changes can simultaneously lower the risk of all three conditions. Experts highlight that these diseases often coexist due to shared underlying damage to small blood vessels in the brain, with risk factors like high blood pressure and diabetes contributing to this damage.


The study identifies six factors that protect against brain diseases. These include low to moderate alcohol intake, consistent cognitive activity through mentally stimulating tasks, a diet rich in vegetables, fruits, dairy, fish, and nuts, moderate to high levels of physical activity, a strong sense of purpose in life, and maintaining a large social network. Conversely, the article outlines 13 health characteristics and habits that increase the risk of developing these conditions, such as high blood pressure, high body mass index, high blood sugar, high total cholesterol, depressive symptoms, a diet high in red meat, sugar-sweetened beverages, sweets and sodium, hearing loss, kidney disease, pain (particularly when it interferes with activity), sleep disturbances, a smoking history, loneliness or isolation, and general stress or stressful life events.


The article emphasizes that reducing high blood pressure is particularly beneficial, as it is the greatest individual risk factor for developing stroke, dementia, and depression. It also suggests incorporating physical and mental exercises into one's routine, ideally with friends to add a social element. The best time to start making these lifestyle changes is in middle age to prevent early disease development. Ultimately, the article encourages readers to view these factors as a "menu of options," tackling them step-by-step to take better care of their brain health.

Today, we have a special guest, Dr. Mazen Noureddin, a world-renowned liver researcher, who joins us for an enlightening conversation about metabolic dysfunction associated with fatty liver disease, a condition that has become a public health crisis globally. As obesity and sedentary lifestyles continue to rise, the prevalence of fatty liver disease has skyrocketed, affecting millions of people worldwide.


In this episode, we take a deep dive into the global epidemic of fatty liver disease, also known as metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Dr. Noureddin sheds light on alarming statistics: nearly one in four adults globally suffers from this condition, which can lead to serious liver complications. We discuss how fatty liver disease often accompanies other metabolic disorders, such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and elevated cholesterol levels, creating a complex web of health challenges for affected individuals.


The conversation touches upon the epidemiology of fatty liver disease, exploring how socioeconomic factors and lifestyle choices contribute to its rapid proliferation. Dr. Noureddin explains the disease's natural history, detailing how it can progress from simple steatosis to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis, and even liver cancer. We discuss the critical importance of early diagnosis and risk assessment, as many individuals remain asymptomatic until the disease reaches advanced stages.


Furthermore, our discussion highlights the increasing need for liver transplants due to the progression of fatty liver disease complications. Dr. Noureddin shares breakthroughs in research and potential new therapies on the horizon, including pharmacologic treatments aimed at reversing liver damage and improving metabolic health.

What we eat, how much exercise we get, alcohol consumption, and sleep are all decisions that impact our health and wellness. There are basic health education deficits that the public has which contribute to the chronic disease that we see every day.

The numbers regarding healthcare expenses in the United States highlight the profound impact of chronic diseases on both individuals and the economy. Chronic diseases like heart disease, cancer, and diabetes not only lead to substantial healthcare costs but also affect productivity and personal finances.


The ripple effects on caregivers, who often face financial and career challenges, further emphasize the need for a more comprehensive approach to wellness. Addressing lifestyle choices that contribute to chronic diseases could potentially alleviate some of these burdens. Encouraging healthier lifestyles, improving access to preventive care, and fostering education about wellness can play crucial roles in reducing the prevalence of chronic diseases and their associated costs.


By focusing on preventive measures and making informed lifestyle choices, individuals can not only improve their own health outcomes but also contribute to a more sustainable healthcare system. The conversation around wellness and its costs is essential in shaping policies and practices that promote healthier communities and reduce the financial strain on individuals and the healthcare system as a whole.

You need to invest in your physical strength, balance, and agility as we age.


Alison Teheng, from Burcutt Physical Therapy and Wellness Center, was our special guest. We reflected on the need to seriously take stock in our own strength and how it impacts on our long-term health and wellness, and what you can do to delay or prevent the onset of chronic disease.


Alison gives numerous good tips and insight on strategies we need to think about. As we like to say, you don’t want to start investing in your health once chronic disease sets in. You need to be 10 to 20 years ahead of chronic diseases to make sure that you do all that you can to avoid them.

Our special guest in the SiriusXM studio in New York City is Jackie DeAngelis with the Fox Business Network.


Jackie is the co-host of the Big Money Show which airs Monday through Friday at 1 PM EST on the FOX Business Network. Jackie has been a guest on our program before and has shared her health journey with breast cancer. 


Her breast cancer was first identified at the time of her first mammogram which was done when she was 40. Much to her astonishment, the mammogram was abnormal, consistent with breast cancer, and she outlines her diagnosis and surgical course over the past few years.


The big take-home message is to get screened appropriately, understand your family and personal risk factors for breast cancer, and strive to maintain a healthy lifestyle that will reduce your risk of not only breast cancer, but other chronic disease.

He is a father of three young children and takes cooking for his family quite seriously. Mike is a tinkerer in the kitchen, experimenting with new techniques always trying to figure out a new and better way to prepare food. 


While he admits that he is not perfect in the meals he prepares, meaning that some of them are not the most nutritious, he is Willing to experiment and strive to make a better meal from scratch. 


I highlight my Mike because from my vantage point in the clinic, listening to patients with chronic disease all day long, the vast majority of them do not feel very comfortable cooking and experimenting in the kitchen. There is a certain level of dependency on processed foods, drive through, and lackluster meals made at home. There isn't much excitement these days in the kitchen or around the kitchen table. 


This situation needs to change if we are going to rescue the health and wellness of our children and combat the chronic disease that millions upon millions of Americans face.

While we may be spending far too much time on the topic (how much can you really talk about the bagel?), I do think it is worthwhile to drive home the point that the "Better Bagel" on its own will not improve your health.


From a consumer standpoint, you are led to believe that a product such as this, allegedly, lower in carbohydrates, high in fiber, and lower in calorie, is the proverbial "cure all" to your ills.


As we stayed in the discussion, New York City, the quintessential capital of the bagel, is one of the thinnest cities in America. How could this be if their per capita intake of bagels leads the nation? It is not the bagel that is making America obese. It is a lifestyle of inactivity, consumption of processed foods, and a general disregard for one's own health and wellness. And so while there is nothing inherently toxic about this Better Bagel product that we're discussing, we all need to think long and hard about our own fate, and what lifestyle choices we need to make.

The show airs every evening between 1:00-5:00 a.m. EST on 77-WABC out of New York. Dr. Galati was discussing new data from the CDC on increased deaths from alcohol over the past few years.


A new study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention revealing a significant increase in alcohol-related deaths in the United States, with nearly 500 Americans dying each day in 2021. The spike began during the Covid pandemic and continued to rise after lockdowns in 2020. The study highlights a higher death rate among men but a quicker increase among women. Factors contributing to the surge include pandemic stress and increased availability of alcohol through home-delivery services. Binge drinking is also on the rise, particularly among middle-aged adults. Policy suggestions to address this issue include increasing alcohol prices through taxes, limiting sales, and promoting counseling. Additionally, new research is linking alcohol use even in moderation to harmful effects on health, debunking previous beliefs about the health benefits of alcohol, including red wine.

This is a topic that we feel is not receiving enough discussion. The majority of individuals with fatty liver suffer from a constellation of disorders which is called metabolic syndrome. Within metabolic syndrome, patients have truncal obesity, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and high cholesterol or triglycerides. This particular risk profile put you at high risk for the development of fatty liver but also for serious heart disease.


Patients with fatty liver have a far more aggressive form of heart disease, with the increased risk of fatal complications in the event of a heart attack. In many cases, both the patient and primary care physicians underestimate the cardiovascular risk associated with fatty liver disease and unfortunately ignore these risk factors.


This past week’s episode of Your Health First highlighted this discussion. We had Dr. Mazen Noureddin, an expert in fatty liver and fatty liver research, as well as Dr. Randeep Suneja, and acclaimed cardiologist here in Houston. Together they outlined the nature of the public health risk, and steps to take to combat it.

This past week on Your Health First, Paul, a listener from New Jersey, called into the broadcast, and shared his recent experience with the results of his coronary calcium score. The tests results showed a very high calcium score, putting Paul at risk for a cardiac event-such as a heart attack. Joining us on the program was Dr. James Wilson, a cardiologist in the Texas Medical Center, in Houston.


Dr. Wilson explained the various risk factors for cardiovascular disease, as well as possible symptoms to be aware of. Next steps for Paul we discussed.

This past week on Your Health First, Paul, a listener from New Jersey, called into the broadcast, and shared his recent experience with the results of his coronary calcium score. The tests results showed a very high calcium score, putting Paul at risk for a cardiac event-such as a heart attack. Joining us on the program was Dr. James Wilson, a cardiologist in the Texas Medical Center, in Houston.


Dr. Wilson explained the various risk factors for cardiovascular disease, as well as possible symptoms to be aware of. Next steps for Paul we discussed.

FODMAP stands for fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols, which are short-chain carbohydrates (sugars) that the small intestine absorbs poorly. Some people experience digestive distress after eating them. Some of the symptoms that people may develop, if they are intolerant of these foods high in fodmap, include stomach bloating and distention, intestinal gas and flatulence, diarrhea, constipation, and cramps.


With a low FODMAP diet, you are eliminating foods that are high in FODMAP. Once your intestinal symptoms improve, it would be appropriate to slowly resume their consumption to see which one of these foods causes you intestinal problems. If you're fortunate to identify these foods, you would want to avoid or limit them while not worrying too much about the other foods that aren't problematic for you.


In this podcast, I speak with Lauren Mahesri, registered dietitian with Liver Specialists of Texas. Lauren will outline the approach to intestinal gas, the low FODMAP diet, the pros and cons of such a diet, and how to approach certain food sensitivities. For more information on FODMAP diet and foods that are both high and low, follow the links that we include for you below.

On the radio, I talked about the various mentoring activities I been involved in over the past several years, working with high school students through young entrepreneur's. The theme of personal and business success is commitment, a sincere desire to achieve, put in the time, and do not take any shortcuts. It dawned on me that these same methodologies applied to your own good health. To remain healthy, you need to remain committed. You also need a sincere approach to your own health and not take shortcuts. Just like working towards a successful career takes time, not putting in the time for her own health is associated with less than adequate results.

For this podcast episode, I want to share with you an unexpected medical emergency I faced right before Christmas, which warranted emergent surgery. All turned out well, and on the grand scheme of things it brought to light an important health and wellness concept I want to share with you all.


Getting perfectly honest with yourself, are you, right now, prepare to undergo any kind of emergency surgery, emergency procedure, or face an unexpected health crisis? It's very well known that if you are not in optimal medical health, any type of minor emergency that you face is going to be associated with unwanted complications. Those individuals that have chronic medical conditions, including diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, liver disease, and kidney disease are going to fare far worse than those without these chronic conditions. So with that said, what are you doing to prepare yourself for these possible scenarios? The vast majority of chronic illnesses can be medically managed (or better yet prevented) reducing the risk of these medical/surgical complications. 


With the New Year starting, this would be a great objective for all of us. Take inventory, see what health and wellness issues need to be addressed, and get it taken care of.

The special guest this week was oncologist Susan Escudier, who practices at Texas Oncology .


With regard to cancer, there are multiple modifiable lifestyle changes that can have a big impact on the eventual risk for cancer and its development. The American Cancer Society recently published data indicating that 42% of cancer cases and 45% of cancer deaths in the United states are linked to modifiable risk factors. In other words, these cases could be prevented. Based on recent data, that translates to 660,000 cancer cases and 265,000 cancer deaths that could have been prevented.


The main modifiable risk factors include smoking, secondhand smoke, obesity, excessive alcohol intake, eating red and processed meats, diets low in fruits and vegetables as well as dietary calcium, physical inactivity, UV radiation, and specific cancer associated infections including H. pylori, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, herpesvirus type 8, HIV, and human papilloma virus.


In the weeks to come on the radio, we are going to continue this series of modifiable lifestyle changes and focus on other disease states including heart disease, liver disease, kidney disease, dementia, lung disease, and diabetes. Stay tuned for these upcoming programs. Make sure you sign up for our newsletter so that you stay up to date on all of these future learning activities will be sharing with you.

The central theme here is, once again, the cost of wellness. He shares a real-life story of a friend and colleague who has suddenly become ill. For most of us, these sudden illnesses are never planned or anticipated. They catch us when we least suspect it. As a result, ongoing lack of attention to your health and wellness does have its consequences when you are most vulnerable. If you have challenges with obesity, address it today; if you've been told that your physician that your cholesterol or blood sugar is just a “touch” elevated, address it today; if you just aren't feeling well, check in with your doctor today and get things addressed.

Jackie spoke with Dr. Galati and shared her recent diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. The interview originally aired on SiriusXM, channel 129, The Catholic Channel. The statistics on breast cancer and additional information is available here.


  • Dr. Galati also shared his own personal experience with breast cancer in him mother, who was a two-time breast cancer survivor.


  • Can your diet prevent dementia? An article from the NYT outlines a dietary plan to reduce the chance of age-related cognitive decline. Hint: lots of fresh fruits and veggies are the foundation of this plan, and make sure you follow the Mediterranean and MIND diets. Listen for more details.


  • We also share with you a new phrase to consider: "Making Visible the Invisible". Dr. Galati recently spoke in Las Vegas and shared this concept. All too often both patients and physicians are blind to medical problems that are seen in open sight. Seeing problems early is life saving.

Lauren McNamara, registered dietitian along with Natalie Amante, physician assistant, sat down and spoke with DR.

Fatty liver disease is the leading cause of chronic inflammation of the liver, the leading cause of cirrhosis and liver cancer, and the leading disease of the liver that ultimately results in the need for a liver transplant.


The vast majority of the cases of fatty liver disease are a direct result of obesity, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol or triglycerides, and hypertension.

This time of the year, we enjoy talking about holiday gift giving, and we try to share some ideas with our listeners regarding gifts that may support health and wellness. Different categories of gifts include those related to the kitchen and cooking, which hopefully will encourage the gift receiver to get a bit more creative in the kitchen and prepare more home cooked meals. As we've spoken about before, nothing is going to beat a home cooked meal with regard to nutrition and it's supporting wellness.


Other gift categories include those related to exercise and fitness, be it the various forms of apparel that we wear to have a more comfortable workout, or some of the new wearable technology to give feedback on how you are performing.


Regardless of the cost or category of gift, all I ask is that you think about sharing gifts that will be fun, but also promote some aspect of wellness for the end user of the gift.

This week on the radio, we had Brent Gallagher, owner and performance coach add Avenu Fitness, based in Houston, Texas. Brent shared his years of experience as a trainer with our audience, providing valuable insight and strategies to establish an exercise routine.


Considering the struggles we’ve all been through with the COVID-19 pandemic, we need to refocus on our own health and wellness. Exercise will always play a vital role in preventing chronic disease, as well as maintaining an appropriate weight, blood pressure, and blood sugar. Like anything else in life, there’s a right way and a wrong way to do something, and this also applies to how we exercise.


Brent presents a very logical approach to exercise, an approach that will maximize the likelihood of success.

During the interview, we asked Dr. Rogers a number of questions about heart disease and what the average consumer needs to know.


Topics we talked about include understanding risk factors for heart disease, understanding the new American Heart Association guidelines for the control of high blood pressure, the role of statins and their safety, as well as being familiar with symptoms you may have that are associated with serious heart problems. He also discussed the need to know your cholesterol, even at an early age, say 20 years old. The better you understand personal risk factors, the sooner lifestyle changes can be adjusted, medical interventions can be made, and your overall health, wellness, and survival can benefit.

Just when we thought we would be getting our lives back under control, the delta variant emerged. The initial excitement about the vaccine has waned, and we are once again seeing a surge of cases in our hospitals and intensive care units.


There continues to be confusion about wearing masks, how we conduct ourselves in public, what is the real story on breakthrough cases in those that have been previously vaccinated, and how do we addressed those that simply are not interested in getting vaccinated?


Unfortunately, the public health experts that we rely on, as well as our political leaders, are finding it more and more difficult to provide the general public with a coherent set of recommendations and guidelines that we can live by. This inconsistent messaging only feeds the fire of noncompliance, and of course, more cases and the potential for more deaths.


This week on our weekly radio program, Your Health First, it was a pleasure to have back on Dr. David Pate. Following his long tenure at St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital in Houston's Texas Medical Center, he relocated to Idaho where he was president and CEO of the St. Luke's Health System. Recently retired, he has done an excellent job of articulate what we need to know regarding COVID-19, the vaccine, and what we should all be thinking about. I highly suggest all of you subscribe to his blog, and follow his thoughts each week.

There is a lot of information to gather here, considering many of the common G.I. complaints that people have could be early warning signals that something more serious is wrong. Don’t ignore the symptoms that are perceived as being OK to have, such as bloating, nausea, heartburn, and difficulty swallowing. Like all serious conditions, early intervention is the key to long-term survival.


Making a return visit is Dr. Sudha Kodali, answering some additional questions about liver cancer from her October appearance on the program. Check out that podcast here. Here again, it's the awareness of our own personal risk factors, and symptoms that we need to be familiar with.


Lastly, some exciting new research out of Sweden is indicating that exercise increases the function of the CD8+ white blood cells in fighting different types of cancer. Yet another reason to get up, dust off your sneakers, and get moving.

Liver cancer rates have tripled since 1980, most likely due to increased rates of #hepatitisC, #fattyliver, and #hepatitisB. This week on Dr. Galati‘s weekly radio program, Your Health First, he interviewed Dr. Sudha Kodali, a partner of his at Houston Methodist Hospital. They discussed the underlying risk factors for liver cancer, the need to know your liver test results, and not ignore subtle abnormalities of you are liver chemistries.


One of the growing public health concerns that we have been speaking about for years is related to the global obesity epidemic which resulted in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, a leading cause of liver cancer. Left untreated, liver cancer is universally fatal.


Being aware of your risk factors, and getting early intervention, can lead to an excellent outcome.

The first is Michael Garfield, who is a permanent fixture on the Houston radio landscape. Michael and his weekly program, the High-Tech Texan, airs every Saturday morning between 11:00 and 1:00 PM on 950 KPRC. Michael is an expert on everything technology related, and he is going to share his insight and thoughts on technology issues that we're facing as the Covid pandemic persists. With everyone working from home, and taking advantage of online exercise classes, online cooking, and substituting the online movie experience for the closed mega theater, I am wondering if this is putting a significant crunch on the internet bandwidth we all need. Listen along and see what the High-Tech Texan has to say!


The next topic will be delving into is constipation. For many, this is just an embarrassing conversation to have, or the butt of a joke. The reality is, Constipation is a significant problem that many people face. This is not just a condition of old people, but I see in my own practice an unusually high number of people in their early 20s with constipation causing significant problems for them. While it's true that Constipation becomes more problematic as we age, the global problem of obesity and its low fiber, low nutrition foods that many are eating, is a driving force when we talk about constipation. The human body was not meant to eat processed foods. 


A worlds expert on constipation, all things digestive, is my good friend and colleague Dr. Eamonn Quigley. He'll be sharing his expert knowledge on Constipation and how we need to think about it.

Fatty liver develops in individuals who have a condition called "metabolic syndrome". Metabolic syndrome includes truncal obesity (belly fat), type-2 diabetes, hypertension, and elevated cholesterol or triglycerides. Fatty liver disease is a leading cause of liver failure that requires liver transplantation.


The global obesity epidemic that we are facing is the single most important driving force behind the cases of fatty liver disease we see. An astounding 100 million people have fatty liver disease in the US. If left unaddressed, fatty liver disease has the potential to cause significant disability and mortality. It’s been shown that individuals with fatty liver disease have an increased "all cause mortality", which in simple terms meaning you’re going to die earlier.


Another tragic part of the fatty liver disease story is that our children are being affected by this, and are developing chronic liver disease, diabetes, and heart disease decades earlier. In my opinion, this is our number one public health threat, and unfortunately many in the medical community and politics have simply ignored it.


In this podcast, you’ll hear from Dr. Eric Lawitz, a liver expert and renowned researcher in the area fatty liver disease. Helen Yuan, RD will be joining us discussing the nutritional strategies to begin turning the tide on this devastating disease.

Put simply, when men (our dads) have to deal with a chronic medical condition, they will be less available for their children and families. Instead of concentrating of the family dynamics, and what makes a great family, they are sidetracked with their own health concerns. Ill dads have the potential for less earning capacity, greater potential for disability, and premature death. All of these factors negatively impact their children, their success, and their future.Take a listen, follow our podcast, and send feedback.

Summer camp for the kids is being modified, and everyone is faced with the idea of “what are we going to do this summer?". I am joined this week by Dr. Sam Pappas, and internal medicine physician from Northern Virginia, along with Chuck Garcia, an executive coach and consultant in New York City.

Sun, 26 Jan 2020 19:17:06 GMT 35:50 5e2de032153eb2964a758d45 false https://shows.acast.com/the-dr-joe-galati-podcast/episodes/is-v-8-juice-health-for-you 5e2de032153eb2964a758d45 5cddb7d0efc2255c0dda3af6 is-v-8-juice-health-for-you Detailed Discussion of V-8 Juice Products full 2 9


This week, you'll get a detailed discussion of the pros and cons of drinking V-8 juice. We try to outline some of the advertising strategies they use to give you a false sense of security, in making you feel like this is a perfect substitute for eating FRESH fruits and veggies. It is NOT. The best I can say right now, and of course listen for more details, is that V-8 may serve as a good substitute for a sugary, low nutrition snack. A serving of V-8 is better than a bag of chips, double-stuffed cookie, or killer coffee drink. I do not feel that this, in any way, replaces the necessary servings of fruits and vegetables we so desperately need to maintain health each and every day.


Where I do have a major issue is with the advertising, on the coattails of the original V-8 products, that all of their new "Fruit and Veggie Blends" are of the same make-up as the original formulation. They are not. It's a well marketed version of a sweetened fruit juice. Sugar, water, and no fiber.


For information on V-8 products, check out this link.

Joining the program is Bridget Gleason from Fox News Channel. She is a Booking Producer for Fox and Friends, and we discuss how health and wellness segments are developed for TV. We also cover millennial health concerns. This later topic is a significant health concern facing those of us in healthcare, as well as employers, families, and millennial themselves.

Ed reported that his sister is doing well post operatively, and that he has recovered as well without any complications. When Ed announced his decision to help his sister, I was asked to appear with Ed to explain what he might experience with the surgery. That broadcast is posted here.


Currently, about 30% of all those waiting for a liver transplant do not survive the wait due to organ shortages. More needs to be done with public education to increase donation of all organs including liver, heart, lung, kidney, and pancreas. Additionally, a single tissue donation can help up to 70 individuals. This story with Ed and his sister Colleen, has increased both the discussion about organ donation and transplant, hopefully starting a trend of greater awareness and understanding. On this podcast, Ed opens up about this transplant experience, and answers questions about transplant, that will encourage everyone to look at organ donation and transplant in a different, more positive light moving forward.


Also on this episode is Kelly Perdue, President and CEO of The Living Bank, and organization based in Houston, dedicated to liver organ donation.


Make sure you share your decision to be an organ donor with your family.

Dr. Galati reviews 4 strategies for weight loss, including getting more sleep, high-intensity exercise, and more dietary fiber. These simple steps will lead to improved health.


Unfortunately, colon cancer rates in young men is on the rise. It is felt to be partially related to the food we eat (or the foods we are NOT eating). As a result, screening for #coloncancer is not starting at age 45 (not 50 as it has been for decades).


Lentils are a super food. Dr. Joe Galati discusses a new recipe he tried-and loved it (even his wife was raving about it!).


Lastly, vaping is not good for you.

With 75% of adults overweight or obese, this is no small problem. This damaging obesity is the belly fat around the mid-section, which triggers inflammation and tissue damage throughout the body, including the heart and liver.


The untucked shirt movement, which doesn't even look that good from a fashion standpoint, is a cover-up for the expanding girths we are facing. Instead of realizing your clothes are getting tight (due to obesity), and plan to cut down what you're eating and exercise more, the only change is to get clothes that are designed to cover the problem-your gut.


We cannot simply hide the expanding waistline with a cleverly tailored shirt. Resist the untucked movement. Push away from the table, exercise more, and visit your healthcare team. It's that important.

Ed Henry from Fox News donated about 30% of his liver to his sister that was in need of a liver transplant as a result of end-stage liver disease. Through a series of amazing twists, I was was asked to appear on Fox and Friends last week to help explain live liver donation, organ transplant, and the overall liver transplant process to the Fox and Friends audience. During this broadcast, Ed Henry announced his decision to donate, in a very emotional segment. For most that saw this genuine outpouring of emotion from Ed, they were very much unfamiliar with organ donation and transplant, let alone a partial liver donation and transplant, and the eventual regeneration of both the donor's liver (i.e. Ed) and his sister who received the transplant (i.e. 30% to 100% in a matter of weeks after transplant).


While we all enjoy these type of human interest stories on TV or the web, this story has struck a chord with America, seeing both the raw emotion displayed, but also the amazing good that organ donation and transplant achieves. Being a small part of this story has been an amazing experience for me, and one I can only hope continues to foster discussion, understanding, awareness, and hope for those thousands of people that are awaiting a transplant.

With his Sicilian roots, Dr. Galati digs deep into the Sicilian culture through the centuries, and how all of this has impacted the food that is eaten on this relatively small island just off the coast of Italy. Sicily embodies the best of the "Mediterranean Diet", but with their own twist.
