Does grief get smaller over time, or do we instead we grow larger around it?
Two years after trauma of the death we typically move into a period of healing and self-correction. The third year after a death is a time of re-calibrating and rebuilding your body, heart, and brain. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3ZshOc5
We previously presented information about grieving and what may be expected during the second year of grief. In this podcast we discuss the third year of grieving the death of a loved one. We bring back Claire Luckey, who has been sharing her journey as a millennial widow who lost her husband to brain cancer 3-1/2 years ago. Claire talks about the growth she has experienced alongside the fading but recurring pain with remembrances of her husband.
Note that what happens in each year after a death is very individual experience; what we discuss is what may be typically experienced while acknowledging it may not be your experience.

How does the USA have a declining life expectancy while other developed countries are rising? Researchers feel it is from deaths of despair. Learn what the factors are and how we can help reverse the trend for ourselves and our communities. Show Notes and Resources: https://bit.ly/3Cm4SLI

Americans Die Prematurely More than Twice as Often as Countries with Similar Wealth - Why?
In 2015, life expectancy in the United States, the wealthiest country in the world, fell for the first time in decades. When compared with similarly wealthy countries, Americans die prematurely more than twice as often. “Deaths as despair” is an explanation given the trend of despair-related mortalities, and evaluated how despair contributes to the rising drug-, alcohol-, and suicide-related deaths among different racial groups.
We talk about the research surrounding this phenomena and what we as a society can do to help reverse the trend for ourselves and others.

We continue our series about deaths you don’t have to die from by talking about immunizations. There are behaviors that we have that can rob us of the chance to live out our full life span; in the United States this is considered 80 years for women and 75 for men.
We now have vaccines to prevent more than 20 life-threatening diseases, helping people of all ages live longer, healthier lives. Immunization currently prevents 3.5 million to 5 million deaths every year from diseases like diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, flu, and tuberculosis. Diseases we no longer need to get sick and potentially die from if we receive immunizations against them.

Premature death is defined as a death that occurs before the average age of death in a particular population. It is a measure of unfulfilled life expectancy; in the United States it is death occurring before age 80. Up to half of all premature (or early) deaths in the United States are due to behavioral and other preventable factors—including modifiable habits such as tobacco use, poor diet, and lack of exercise. Four factors—poor diet, high blood pressure, obesity, and tobacco use—are identified as primary causes of early death.

Eating the right food can prevent disease or slow down the effects of a disease we already have. Learn how to read labels and shop wisely for whole foods. Show notes and resources: https://bit.ly/3N2HpkP
What does research have to say about processed vs whole foods, and how do you make the best choices?
Diet may be destiny when it comes to our health. If we switch from eating the Standard American Diet to one that is higher in whole plant foods, such as fruits and vegetables, we may lower our risk of developing certain diseases.
How Can the Right Foods Affect Health?
Realistic changes of diet and lifestyle may prevent most heart disease, stroke, diabetes, colon cancer, and smoking-related cancers. Food may not exactly be medicine, but eating the right food is one of the best ways to prevent disease or slow down the effects of a disease we already have. We talk about

In this Episode:Magnificent Microbes!
As we continue our series about ways to slow our march toward the end of life, our topic this week is about our microbiome. You have probably heard of this term, but may wonder what it means and how it applies to you.
Our gut microbiome are microbes, and their genetic material is found in our gastrointestinal tract. Bacteria in our gut affect everything from our digestion to our mental health.
What does Our Microbiome do for Us?
Marianne shares the evolution of our microbiome and how it develops diversity. This is important because different bacteria help us digest food, produce vitamins, increase absorption, helps our immunity, and prevent bad bacteria from taking over.
Why is Balance Important?
When something disrupts the balance, such as antibiotics, it can allow "opportunistic growth" of organisms such as Clostridium difficile (C. diff), a germ that causes diarrhea and colitis.
How to Increase your Gut Diversity
We talk about several ways to foster diversity in your microbiome. Listen for several tips!

Griefbots are the creation of digital characters that imitate the way people who have died spoke and wrote. While these bots and AI avatars may be beneficial to the grieving process, there’s also a risk that they could keep us clinging to the past, spending our time with the deceased rather than the living, and find ourselves unable to move forward and grow.
