Welcome to the inaugural episode of our monthly series, “PM Talks,” where my good friend Patrick Rhone and I delve into a myriad of topics, each leading to incredibly productive and insightful conversations. This time around we’re (mostly) kicking things off with a subject that’s near and dear to both of us: the world of paper planners. In this episode, Patrick and I share our love and experiences with various paper planners. We discuss everything from the classic Midori Traveler’s Notebook to the Hobonichi Techo, exploring how these tools not only help us stay organized but also play a vital…
At age 58, John Rzeznik has no time to slack off, onstage or in the gym. The Goo Goo Dolls frontman still has plenty of music to create and thousands of fans to perform in front of nearly. Most important, he needs to be his best version for his young daughter who’s going needs her dad escorting her to school each morning. And appearance-wise, by looking at him onstage rocking a tank top while banging out the dozens of rock classics the band has delivered since the ’80s, Rzeznik’s still-shredded biceps at this age are the opposite of similar age…
Add these Tahini Miso Covered Cauliflower Steaks to your menu! You can enjoy these Tahini Miso Covered Cauliflower Steaks as an entree with a side of protein, greens, and maybe some grains/carbohydrates or as a side dish — regardless of how you enjoy it, the star of the show is really the tahini miso sauce. What Is Miso? Let’s talk about this fermented umami paste made from soybeans and mold called koji (Aspergillus oryzae from soybeans, barley, or rice). Miso is traditionally used in Japanese cooking and used for its health benefits and delicious umami taste. Additionally, there are nutrients…
Set it and forget it: That’s the way you want to cook during the week when work, kids, school activities and sports all collide. And truth be told, you don’t mind making weekend meals the same way, either. Slow cooker dinners are your solution when you’re short on time (and energy). Plus, when that slow cooker recipe also happens to be super-high in protein, you can consider it a win for your waistline.A high-protein diet keeps you fuller for longer and helps your body build muscle. Protein is also more thermogenic than carbohydrates and fats (meaning it requires more energy…
The general consensus (right now, at least) is that it’s most common to test positive four days after your symptoms appear. According to a report from researchers at Emory University published in the fall of 2023, this is when your viral load, or the amount of virus harboring in your nasal passages, is at its highest, and therefore, most detectable, on an at-home test. This is slightly later than when people produced positive test results a year or two ago—with Omicron and Delta, for example, your test tended to show a positive two to three days after your symptoms popped…
A urinary tract infection (UTI) is common, but it can be serious. “Simple urinary tract infections can be managed by your primary care provider, but when they become complex leading to other issues or problems, you should seek the care of a specialist,” says Dr. Mitchell Humphreys, a urologist at Mayo Clinic. What is a UTI? The urinary system helps the body eliminate waste, excess water and salt. It encompasses the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra. Bacteria can enter any part of the system, causing an infection. What are UTI symptoms? A UTI may cause symptoms but not always. Common…
If you’ve been watching Selling Sunset lately, then you, like me, saw Emma Hernan and Breana Tiesi “have a kiki” during season 7. The ladies met in a pink-lit fitness studio while straddling large spinning contraptions I had never seen before (that neither one of them knew what to do with).After aggressively searching the internet, I discovered that the real estate queens were visiting Cosmo Contour, an under-the-radar infrared fitness studio here in L.A. The body sculpting studio claimed to transform, heal, and repair the body in just 30 minutes. Now that’s some serious multitasking.Given that I’m obsessed with all…
Bile duct cancer, also known as cholangiocarcinoma, forms in the thin tubes that carry bile from your liver to your gallbladder and small intestine. Though relatively rare, cholangiocarcinoma is often diagnosed in later stages, making it more difficult to treat, and cases in the U.S. are increasing. In a review article published in Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology in 2023, lead author Sumera I. Ilyas, M.B.B.S., and co-authors share advances in diagnosing, staging and treating bile duct cancer. Dr. Ilyas is a Mayo Clinic physician-scientist and a transplant hepatologist whose research focuses on the immunobiology of liver cancer. Here is a summary of their review: The…

Holograms and virtual reality (VR) headsets can be part of a great gaming experience. But did you know that the same technology can make for a better healthcare experience too? Dr. Joaquin Sanchez-Sotelo, a Mayo Clinic orthopedic surgeon, explains how, for the first time ever, mixed reality played a vital role in a recent shoulder surgery he performed. Shoulder arthroplasty, or shoulder replacement surgery, is a complex procedure where damaged bone is replaced by metal and plastic implants. Computer software helps doctors create a surgical plan as to where those implants should be placed. Watch: The Mayo Clinic Minute Journalists:…
