	Men, Women, & Stress
	Tuesday May 6, 2008

Relationship expert Dr. John Gray discussed his latest work on how men and women handle stress differently, due to gender-related chemical differences. Most "lifestyle" diseases are the result of how we respond to stress, he noted. Stress can cause elevated levels of cortisol, and lead people to make less healthy dietary choices, he said. Women run out of the neurotransmitter serotonin more quickly than men, which can bring on more stress and sugar cravings, he detailed. Further, because women have eight times more blood flow to the brain, they may become more upset under moderate stress than a man. Men's stress, he continued, can show up as fatigue, feeling "blah" and a sense of boredom or flatness. These are symptoms of low dopamine levels, said Gray. For both men and women, he recommended the supplement PGX, a tri-fiber that absorbs carbohydrates and regulates blood sugar levels-- this helps the brain more readily manufacture needed chemicals, he explained. For men, the pl ... More

	The Nye Incidents
	Thursday April 17, 2008

Authors Whitley Strieber and Craig Spector discussed their new graphic novel The Nye Incidents which concerns mysterious cases of human mutilation, which may be connected to alien abductions.The incidents in the book were inspired by a number of real life events. "Whitley had a story he was too scared to write," Spector said, explaining how he was brought in on the collaborative project. A 2002 case in Pennsylvania that Linda Moulton Howe investigated involved a man whose unusually decomposed body was found in a separate location from his abandoned car, and was associated with a witness seeing a body floated up in a beam of light (Streamlink members can listen to Linda's 2003 report labeled 'Strange Death in Penn' here).Other cases involved homeless men dropped on rooftops in Northern New Jersey, said Strieber. In their book, Spector said he focused on forensic aspects, setting up the question whether a serial killer was imitating aliens or vice versa. UFO researcher Dr. ... More

	Alternatives to Medication
	Thursday September 30, 2004

Best selling author, John Gray discussed issues and alternatives related to stress, depression and the general overmedicating of America. 1 out of 5 American women are on antidepressants and 1 out of 5 boys take Ritalin for ADHD, he pointed out. Further he noted that ten pharmaceutical companies on the Fortune 500, make more money than the other 490 companies combined. According to his research, women's depression symptoms are related to low serotonin levels, and men's relationship problems are often associated with lowered dopamine levels. Instead of treating these issues with pharmaceuticals, he advocated using food, supplements and exercise to achieve the right chemical balance. For instance, he suggested doing breathing exercises to increase the amount of oxygen in the body as well as drinking oxygenated liquids such as Aquarius Water. Gray also suggested starting one's day (after a brief period of low impact exercise) with a "superfood" protein shake that includes non-hyd ... More
