JAMA Study Blood Test for Alzheimer’s
Recent studies have demonstrated significant advancements in the early detection of Alzheimer’s disease using blood-based biomarkers, particularly the phosphorylated tau 217 (p-tau217) protein. Research published in JAMA Neurology highlights that these blood tests offer diagnostic accuracy comparable to traditional methods like cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis and positron emission tomography (PET) scans, achieving accuracy rates around 80-92%(

). This makes them a promising tool for early intervention, particularly as they are less invasive and more cost-effective than lumbar punctures and imaging. However, the generalizability of these tests across diverse populations remains a challenge, necessitating further research to ensure their efficacy across different demographic groups(

Eldercare Disparities: A U.S. Perspective vs. The World
Caring for Our Seniors: A Global Lesson for the U.S.
In the United States, we often place our elderly in assisted living facilities, a decision that can inadvertently convey the message that they are no longer valued. In contrast, countries like Japan and Italy integrate seniors into their homes and communities, showing respect and reverence for their wisdom. It’s time we shift our mindset and adopt principles from the Blue Zones—regions known for longevity and quality of life—where seniors are active, connected, and valued. By incorporating these practices into our homes and senior care facilities, we can ensure our elders live with dignity and purpose.
Whether it’s through improving nutrition, supplementing cognitive health, or creating environments that foster independence, we must find ways to honor our seniors and help them thrive.
The Psychology Behind How Food Tastes Based on Presentation
When we think about food, we usually focus on flavor, but how it looks can be just as important as how it tastes. The brain starts forming opinions about food before it even hits your taste buds. The presentation of a dish triggers expectations that influence your experience and can even enhance or diminish the flavors.
Think about a beautifully plated meal versus one thrown together carelessly. The elegant arrangement, vibrant colors, and balance on the plate communicate a level of care and quality. This sets your brain up to expect something delicious. On the flip side, when food looks unappealing, even if it tastes good, you’re more likely to perceive it as less enjoyable.

Cooking for Health with Links for Life & Blue Zones
I’m deeply grateful to the Blue Zones Project for inviting me to collaborate on a cooking demonstration for the ladies of Links for Life, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting those affected by breast cancer. It was a joy to showcase ingredients with cancer-preventing properties and share how they can promote long-term health. The gratitude from the women was overwhelming, and I’m honored to support such a powerful organization that provides mammograms, diagnostic testing, and crucial emotional support to the community.

Holistic Health and Economic Leadership: Empowering Women in Business
The Power of Health in the Workplace
When women feel energized, clear-minded, and supported, they bring their best selves to work. Imagine a workplace where your health is a priority—where team-building exercises aren’t just about business but about fostering well-being. That’s what I helped create with the Department of Human Services, through the Blue Zones Project Bakersfield. By incorporating holistic health practices like nutritious food demonstrations and wellness workshops, we saw a transformation. Employees were more engaged, had more energy, and their attendance improved. When your health is thriving, so is your work.
Empowering women to lead with vitality starts with creating spaces where they feel their well-being matters. When work becomes a place where you’re encouraged to be at your healthiest, going to work each day isn’t a chore—it’s a chance to grow stronger, more confident, and more fulfilled.
Battling the Rising Threat: The Complexity of Mosquito-Transmitted Diseases in 2024
As mosquito-transmitted diseases like West Nile Virus, Eastern Equine Encephalitis, Yellow Fever, and Dengue Fever continue to surge in 2024, protecting yourself from these dangers is more critical than ever. The battle against these diseases is complicated by the vast diversity among mosquito species, each with unique characteristics and behaviors that affect how they spread illness. Effective mosquito control requires a deep understanding of these factors, as well as a commitment to community-wide efforts and ongoing research.
But did you know that what you eat and drink can also make you more or less attractive to mosquitoes? Just like wearing a sweet-smelling perfume can draw insects to you, consuming certain foods and beverages can increase your appeal to mosquitoes, while others may help keep them at bay. Understanding these nuances can be a valuable part of your strategy to avoid becoming a mosquito’s next meal.
This excerpt captures the essence of the article, highlighting the complexity of mosquito control and introducing the unique angle of how diet can influence mosquito attraction.
