PD WARRIOR’s Post

This video is a perfect example of the importance of pre- and post-testing to gain buy-in from your patients and demonstrate the impact of high-intensity exercise. Even short bouts can make a significant difference. Start where you are and continually look for ways to increase both the duration and intensity of the activities. Let's keep pushing the boundaries to enhance our patients' outcomes.

Interesting topics to predict stroke for people in advance, and follow up the stroke rehab by AI conversation.

👀 NEW LECTURE coming soon 🦵 There is plenty of talk about the physical side of ACL rehab - such as exercise prescription, building strength, improving plyometric capacity and return to sport 🤷♀️ But what about the neurological side of rehab? ✅ Dustin Grooms from Ohio University covers all the key neurological considerations for ACL injury and rehab in the upcoming Brain Changes After ACL Injury Lecture 🔜 Set to release on 9th July! 👉 Only available on UNLIMITED at www.learn.physio

Your Gut-Brain Connection: Parkison's edition Parkinson's Disease is a brain disorder where the cells that produce a neurotransmitter that calms muscle movements are dying off. This leads to the characteristic tremors in the hands and difficulty walking. These patients are at a much greater risk of falls and pneumonia-related deaths. Muhammed Ali and Michael J. Fox are probably the most commonly known people who have been diagnosed with PD, but some 60,000 people in the US alone are diagnosed each year. Luckily, just like Alzheimer's, there are a lot of things you can control to lower (and increase) your risk. These can include: *Coffee 40% lower *Smoking 30% lower (not suggesting you take up smoking....) *Physical activity 20% lower *Family history of PD 320% higher *Dyspepsia 80% higher *Exposure to pesticides 230% higher *Oils 560% higher *Metals 280% higher *General anesthesia 610% higher Notice the "dyspepsia" risk factor? This has been found in multiple studies over the years, and this one is no exception. In it, researchers followed 9,350 patients (average age 52) for 15 years who had an upper endoscopy scope done. Specifically, they looked for people who had damage to the lining of the esophagus, stomach or small intestings (specifically, erosions, inflammation of the esophagus, ulcers and stomach injury). 15 years later, those patients who had the damage were 415% more likely to be diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease (2.2% vs 0.5%).

We can't always rely on evidence to determine our approach to mitigating injury risk. Sometimes we need to try ideas with a fundamental understanding of neuro-physiology, mechanics, and our experiences to build an approach. Achilles injuries are rampant in many dynamic ground contact sports. Whether it's in the NFL with some of the most elite athletes on the planet, or older recreational athletes diving into Pickle Ball, the injury is real and not going away! Here are a few ideas in this video for stemming the tide. Building sustained stiffness, managing knee extension and dorsiflexion combined actions, and improving proprioceptive mapping are a few concepts worth exploring.

Peter Attia Dives Deep on STATINS (side effects & the best alternatives) The discussion delves into the evolution of Statins, highlighting the discontinuation of older generations due to severe side effects. Common side effects of Statins include muscle aches and insulin resistance leading to type 2 diabetes in a small percentage of users. Concerns about Statins’ impact on mitochondrial function and potential links to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s are raised. The importance of monitoring liver function tests and considering supplementation with ubiquinol alongside Statin therapy is also discussed. Overall, while Statins remain a crucial tool in managing cardiovascular health, their side effects and potential long-term implications warrant further research and consideration. The discussion emphasizes the importance of personalized medicine in Statin therapy, highlighting the need to monitor desol levels for assessing dementia risk. Alternative medications like aetam and bempedoic acid are considered for individuals intolerant to Statins. The potential risks associated with extreme phytosterol levels and the liver-specific drug’s efficacy in lowering cholesterol synthesis without side effects are also discussed. The conversation underscores the ongoing debate surrounding the cost-effectiveness and safety of different cholesterol-lowering medications in clinical practice.
