If like me, you get Botox and filler and do other treatments at med spas or in dermatologist's offices, you MUST listen to what, World Renowned Plastic Surgeon, Dr Cameron Chestnut has to say about what is harmful and what might be a better option. Dr Chestnut specializes in regenerative medicine to optimize outcomes and healing and in part 2 of our conversation with him, he breaks down what Is true, false and recommended if you are going to embark on any aesthetic service no matter how small and non harmful you think it may be.

As you can imagine, there is a lot to talk about when it comes to anti-aging procedures, so it is not surprising that Dr Chestnut and I went way over so we are shared this podcast in 2 parts. This is part two. You can listen to part one here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0ElkFsjAmArtYX03t5BiDy?si=AfT112fMQ8ySxvAA2QV65Q

It seems like everyone is doing beauty treatments in an attempt to combat aging. Are they real? Do they work at all? Are they safe???

Regret is a cancer that only grows worse with time. As people are living longer, they are ALSO living with regret, but it does not need to be this way. Wishing things were different is not going to get you anywhere.

In this week's episode we make the case for using regret in a positive way and in a lifechanging way.

You may have heard that as people who have had the chicken pox age, they are more susceptible to getting shingles which is basically the reemergence of chickenpox at a later date. The virus stays in your body forever once you have it. And shingles can be quite painful. Should you get the shingles vaccine?

Before you make that decision you should of course consult your physician, but you should also listen to this short podcast explaining what it is and what other viruses it is closely related to - bet you don't know what virus family shingles is in. Hint: Think cold sores...

What is contributing to this and what can be done to turn back the clock...just not all the way back to the 1950's or earlier. Sex is a normal and healthy part of life for men and women, including those over 50. It is time we start treating it that way.

As the world gets crazier and crazier, more people worldwide than ever before, are taking antidepressants and anti-anxiety medicine. So many people are taking it that I'm sure that many of you reading this, are either taking something yourself or know someone who is.

Is that a bad thing?

Could be. This episode looks into what you need to know before taking these medications and if you are already taking them, you SHOULD definitely listen. Remember, knowledge is power - power to be in control of your health and well-being.

When you ask non tech people over 40 what they think of Artificial Intelligence (AI), they either don't know what it is or are sure it is very, very bad for humanity.

AI is not going anywhere so to help correct both of those things, we have on guest, Sam Shatzkin, a Product Engineer at tech start up, Axle, in NYC where he uses AI, to explain it to us in simple terms we can understand. Finally!!! It always sounds so complicated.

Without a doubt this episode will pique your curiosity, and you will want to know more about how AI can help you personally. Fortunately, Sam was kind enough to say he would come back on our podcast, and or answer any questions we have here, or at our podcast group, Aging Out Loud, on Facebook.

Ozempic is all the rage.

Even Oprah is on it and lost a ton of weight...at Weight Watcher's expense but such is life, right? No matter that their stock tanked and countless number of weight watchers users felt betrayed because of her.

"Today, over 100 members of Congress support a bill to fund Ozempic with Medicare... Most of these members have taken money from the manufacturer of that product, a European company called Novo Nordisk."

Got that? Members of congress who received money from Novo Nordisk, the Danish manufacturer of Ozempic, want Americans to be covered for it in the US. What are the odds?

"There is a push to recommend Ozempic for Americans as young as six over a condition -obesity-that is completely preventable."

You read that right. "As young as 6"

In this short episode (under 15 minutes) we continue our research into the weight loss drug, Ozempic:

Is it safe to take?

Is it expensive?

Is it covered by insurance?

Why did Oprah step down from Weight Watcher's Board and sell her shares in the company after taking Ozempic?

We are getting so many questions aboutOzempicsuch as,"what is it exactly?"

How does it help type 2 diabetes AND help you lose weight?

Is it safe to take?

Is it expensive?

Is it covered by insurance?

In this very short episode (under 11 minutes) we begin to explain exactly what it is, how it helps with type 2 diabetes and why it is considered "off label" as a weight loss drug.

At age fifty-one, Turner Grant became a widower and single parent to his twin boys. Deep in grief, he often found daily routines difficult and his work arduous. But after two years, Turner embarked on a journey to find his future, both in life and love.
What he discovered shocked him. After tentative steps into the shallow dating waters, he was quickly immersed in a deep ocean filled with unexpected riptides and crosscurrents within an online dating universe that didn't exist when he last dated decades earlier.
In three years, he met fifty-four single, middle-aged women who took him to a totally different world—Venus.

It was a journey—a journey that's, well ... complicated.

Whether you are single or not, you will find a lot to relate to in his journey.

What do fruit punch, bacon bits, sports drinks and rainbow sprinkles have in common?

They and many other products are made with synthetic food coloring that has caused cancer in rats. It has been banned in Europe, Australia and New Zealand since 1994. Heck, it has been banned in the US for 35 years but only for use in cosmetics.

That's Outrageous you say? So do we.

In Season 3,'s first episode, we break the ban down for you quickly and clearly and just enough to make your blood boil.

Thoughts on the New York Post headline saying, "The Golden Bachelor' divorce highlights the many hardships of geriatric dating," to announce that the first Golden Bachelor, Gerry Turner, in his early 70's, is divorcing the contestant he dated and married on the show.

"Geriatric dating?????"

Other than as a medical term, can we all agree to not use that term to define two people who are dating or divorcing just because they are not 20?

We are so sick of this fake narrative about everyone being labeled and in particular, everyone over 40, 50, and 60, being labeled as old.

It is NOT true.

We have to stop referring to everything and everyone related to aging in a negative light.

Don't you agree?

In Part II of our interview with Drs. Emily and Mitchell Clionsky we continue our discussion on ways to prevent dementia.

They say 50% of all dementia is prevenatbel, an astounding number. and they give us advice from their book on real-life ways to defend ourselves against this awful disease.

They have a dementia prevention checklist on their website that you can access here: BRAINDOC Checklist Intro
