>> COMING OCCUPY ARIZONA HORIZON, STATE LAWMAKERS WRESTLE TO APPEAL AN 1864 ABORTION BAN REINSTATED LAST WEEK BY THE SUPREME COURT.

TONIGHT HOW NAU THE NURSING SHORTAGE IN RURAL AREAS AND THE LINK WITH METABOLISM AND HEALTH CONSCIENCE.

THOSE STORIES AND MORE ARE NEXT ON ARIZONA HORIZON >> GOOD EVENING AND WELCOME TO ARIZONA HORIZON I'M TED SIMONS.

REPUBLICANS IN THE ARIZONA HOUSE AGAIN BLOCKED A REPEEFLT 1864 ABORTION BAN REINSTATED LEFT WEEK BY THE STATE SPROERZ.

DEMOCRATS AND ONE REPUBLICAN TRIED TO MOVE FORWARD TO REPEAL THE BAN CALLING FOR PROCEDURAL VOTE THAT WOULD HAVE FAST TRACKED IT.

THE EFFORT NEEDED TWO VOTES AND IT GOT ONE.

LATER ATTEMPT TO DELAY IT FOR A VOTE ON THE BILL FAILED.

NOW, THAT WAS IN THE HOUSE WHICH ADJOURNED UNTIL NEXT WITNESS STAND.

AS FOR THE SENATE A REPEAL THERE MADE IT PAST A NUMBER OF MOERGZS TO ADJOURN AND WAS INTRODUCED WITH TWO REPUBLICANS TO PUT THE BILL BEFORE THE SENATE OF BUT A FINAL VOTE WILL NOT HAPPEN FOR SEVERAL DAYS THE LEGISLATION NEEDS TO BE OFFICIALLY READ BEFORE THE CHAMBER.

MUCH MORE ON ALL OF THIS IN A MOMENT.

>> OTHER HEADLINES U.S. SENATE DISMISSED ALL THE IMPEACHMENT CHARGED MAKERS MAYORKAS.

OVER THE HANDLING OF THE BOERDZ.

BUT DEMOCRATS IN THE SENATE INCLUDING SENATOR MARK KELLY ENDED THE TRIAL BEFORE ARGUMENTS BEGANFUL KELLY THE IMPEACHMENT CHARGES WERE MORE THAN A POLITICAL STUNT.

>> ARIZONA NEEDS REAL SOLUTIONS AT THE BOERDZ NOT MORE POLITICS.

I LISTENED 40 MINUTES OF THEM READING THE ARTICLES.

THERE WERE NO CRIMES OR MISDEMEANERS.

NO CORRUPTION IT WAS A POLITICAL EXERCISE.

AND RESIDENCE IN THE UNITED STATES SENATE GET THIS.

A LOT OF MY REPUBLICAN CLAEG CLOTHES WANT TO GET THROUGH THIS QUICKLY.

STHET ASIDE AND GET BACK TO SOLVING THE PROBLEMS OUR COUNTRY FACES.

>> COMMENTED ON THE HOUSE PLANNING VOTE THIS WEEKEND ON AN AID PACKAGE FOR UKRAINE OTHER ISIRRELEVANT AND ALLI ITS WILL HAPPEN ACCORDING TO MIKE SENTENCE DESPITE OPPOSITION FROM FELLOW RESIDENCE.

SENATOR KELLY ARE SAID IT IS TIME FOR THE HOUSE TO MOVE ON THIS.

>> ISREAL AND U DRAIN AN ALLI WE HAVE MEMBERS OF CONGRESS THIS DON'T WANT TO HELP UKRAINE BECAUSE OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT'S TRUMP'S RHETORIC.

UNCLEAR WHERE HE SIMPLE I HAVE BEEN TO UKRAINE TWICE.

THEY ARE FIGHTING COURAGEOUSLY IT IS CRITICAL WE GET THEM AID >> TOOK 3 HOURS TODAY AS FAR AS THE IMPEACHMENT WAS CORRESPOND TOOK 3 HOURS IN THE ATTENTIVE PARTY LINE VOTE DISMISSING ALL CHARGES AGAINST MAYORKAS.

>> AS WE MENTIONED A BUSY DAY AT THE CAPITOL THE HOUSE AND SENATE ADDRESSED ARIZONA 1864 ABORTION LAW DEEMED THE LAW OF THE LAND BY THE STATE SPORT LAST WEEK HOW DID THAT RULING AND LACK OF REPEAL IMPACT EFFORTS TO ASK VOTERS TO APPROVE ABORTION RIGHTS BY WAY OF A BALLOT MEASURE.

CHRIS IS BEHIND THE INITIATIVE CALLED THE ARIZONA FOR ABORTION ACCESS.

GOOD TO HAVE YOU HERE >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

BEFORE THE MEASURE YOUR THOUGHTS ON WHAT HAPPENED AT THE CAPITOL?

>> I THINK THAT TODAY WAS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WHY WE NEED PROTECTIONS IN THE INSTITUTION.

IF WE RELY ON THE LEGISLATOR TO REPEAL THIS SEASON 64 CIVIL WAR ERA LAW.

THEY HAD SINCE 1864 TO DO IT.

I KNOW WE SAW FOLKS WALKING BACK THEIR SUPPORT FOR THE BAN.

BASED UPON THE OTHER -- ELEMENTS HAPPENING INCLUDING WORDS FROM THE FORMER PRESIDENT KERRY LAKE AND OTHER KEY REPUBLICAN LEADERS.

HOWEVER, YOU KNOW WHAT WE SAW TODAY WAS THEM NOT KEEPING THE PROMISES TO REPEAL THE 1864 BAN.

WE SHOULD TAKE THEM AT THEIR WORD >> WHAT WE HEARD BY WAY OF INFORMATION THAT GOT OUT WAS A PLAN BY REPUBLICANS TO COMPETE BY WAY OF SOMETHING THAT IS COMPLEMENTARY TO YOUR INITIATIVE.

AND THINKING OF SENDING A COUPLE MEASURES TO CONFUSE A 14 AND 14 WEEK BAND OF BEFORE, WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE TACTIC SNS >> AS AN ARIZONA VOTER I'M INSULTED.

THEY THINK THAT VOTERS ARE NOT SAVVY ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN WHAT THEY ARE OFFERING AND WHAT THE CITIZENS INITIATIVE IS OFFERING, RIGHT.

BUT ALSO I THINK THAT THE THING THIS IS THEY ARE TRYING TO DO JUST FURTHER PROVE THAT -- OUR POSITION IS PREPONDER LAWYER.

AND FEEL THREATENED, RIGHT.

THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE THE POWER OUT OF THE HANDS OF PEOPLE AND CONSOLIDATED IN THE LEGISLATOR >> LOOKS LIKE IF THE ATTEMPTS COME THROUGH AND THINGS REFERRED TO THE BALLOT THEY COULD FLOOD THE ZONE AND TAKE ATTENTIONAR WAY FROM YOUR INITIATIVES?

>> ABSOLUTELY.

AND THEY ARE FLOODING THE BALLOT WITH A NUMBER OF OTHER REFERRAL THIS IS WERE SEEING.

I THINK THIS IS PART OF THE STRATEGY TO CONFUSE VOTERS.

AND GET THEM FATIGUED BY THE TIME THEY GET TO THE PROCESS.

>> GET TO THE ARIZONA ABORTION ACCESS ACT WHAT DOES THIS BALLOT MEASURE CALL FOR.

>> SO, OUR THE RIGHT TO ABORTION UP TO FETAL VIABILITY AND THE STATE CONSTITUTION.

AFTER VIABILITY ALCOHOL BE DETERMINED BY MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL AND IT IS PREGNANT PERSON THIS PREGNANT PERSON HAS OPTIONS THAT PROTECT THEIR LIFE AND THEIR HEALTH >> FETAL.

I SAW 24 WEEKS SOMEWHERE.

NOT NECESSARILY 24 WEEK ITS IS FETAL VIABILITY.

>> YES >> CRITICS SAY AND HAD KATHDY HERE.

SAYS REMOVES SAFETY STANDARDS AND THAT -- VIABILITY IS ONE THING BUT THERE IS ALSO OTHER THING IN THERE THAT MIGHT MEAN FOR LATE TERM ABORTIONS NOT ALLOWED RIGHT NOW.

MAKES SENSE OF THIS, PLEASE.

>> KATHY THE FOLKS THAT SUPPORT HER REPEAT THIRD DEGREE OVER AND OVER FOR 20 YEARS, RIGHT?

AND THE OPPOSITION IS EVEN TRIED THE SAME APPROACH IN STATES LIKE MICHIGAN AND OHIO.

WHERE THE PROABORTION INITIATE WAS WAS SUCCESSFUL.

WE ARE UNFOCUSED ON WHEN THEY SAY IT MIGHT DOM I INVITE TORN READ THE ONE PAGE THAT WE HAVE AND POINT TO SOMETHING SPECIFIC IN THAT LANGUAGE.

THAT WHILE CORROBORATES ANYTHING THAT THEY ARE SAYING.

WHEN WE ARE TRYING TO DO IS PROTECT PREGNANT PARENT IN THES STATE AND MAKE SURE THEY HAVE THE FREEDOM TO MAKE PERSONAL DECISIONS ABOUT THEIR HEALTH CARE AND ESPECIALLY ABORTION, WITH THE FAMILIES AND THEIR MEDICAL PROVIDERS.

WE WANT TO KEEP POLITICIANS OUT.

>> AND ONE LAST POINT AS FAR AS WHAT CRITICS SAY.

AMONG THE LOUDEST CRITICS HERE.

ALLOWS REASONS FOR MOTHERS MENTAL HEALTH.

THE PREGNANT PERSON'S MENTAL HEALTH TO BE A FACTOR OPPOSED TO VIABILITY.

IS THAT TRUE?

IS THAT SOMETHING FOR FOLKS TO BE CONCERN BODY?

>> FOR THE MENTAL HEALTH EXCEPTION, THAT IS ABSOLUTELY THE LANGUAGE.

AND I WOULD SAY THAT DOCTORS AND PARENTS ARE THE BEST TO MAKE THAT DECISION.

WE DON'T NEED A RULE FROM THE LEGISLATOR WHO ARE NOT A BUNCH DOCTORS, RIGHT?

SO WE ARE SAYING LEAVE THE MEDICAL DECISIONS TO THE MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS AND THE PREGNANT PEOPLE WHO'S BODIES AND MENTAL HEALTH MAY BE AT STAKE >> THIS IS DOCTOR, PARENT, PERIOD PERIOD.

>> WHAT DU MAKE OF THE SUPREME COURT DECISION?

>> YOU KNOW, WE -- WE HAD ANTICIPATED RAY NUMBER OF DIFFERENT OPTIONS, SUPPLY AND I DON'T THINK I WAS PREPARED AS I THOUGHT I WAS.

IT WAS A GUT PUNCH DEVASTATE SIDE UNDER STATEMENT.

2024 OR SUPREME COURT WOULD UPHOLD AN ABORTION BAN FROM 1864 FROM THE CIVIL WAR ERA BEFORE BLACK WOMEN COULD VOTISM DON'T THINK MY ANCESTORS WERE FREE.

IT IS WILDLY OUT OF TOUCH WITH VALUES AND WITH ARIZONA VOTERS >> I THINK I SAW A QUOTE FRUSAYING THAT TODAY IS OUR WORSE NIGHT MARRY >> YEA >> FOR REASONS YOU JUST STATED >> ABSOLUTELY.

ABSOLUTELY.

ONE DAY WITHOUT ABORTION IS A DAY TOO MANY.

>> THE JUSTICES LOOKED AT THIS STATUTE OPPOSED TO CONSTITUTIONAL.

WHAT COULD THEY HAVE DONE BECAUSE -- THAT 2022 LAW BASICALLY SAID WE ARE NOT GETTING RID OF 1864.

WE ARE DOING THIS.

>> RIGHT.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT, OUR LEGAL ARGUMENT WAS THIS WE AGREE.

BUT WE MADE A PROCEDURAL ARGUMENT THAT ALL OF THE LAWS FROM 1864 TO THE 15 WEEK BAN IN 20 IT 22 WOULD 92 ED TO BE READ AND HARMONIZED.

THAT WAS AN ARGUMENT THAT THE COURT OF APPEALS AGREED WITH US.

YOU KNOW THE SUPREME COURT TOOK THIS AND UP NOT COMPELLED TO AND MADE A DECISION THEY WOULD VENTURE POLITICAL ESPECIALLY BEGIN THAT TWO OF THE JUSTICES WERE UP FOR RETENTION >> THAT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE.

THERE IS TIME NOW TO CHALLENGE ARE YOU PLANNING CHALLENGE ANYONE YOU KNOW PLANNING.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUES THEY DID NOT ADDRESS HOW DOES THIS WORK?

GI WILL TELL YOU THAN I REMANUALEDED THE CASE FOR 14 DAYS AND PUT A STAY.

THEY COULD MAKE SURE THEY WERE ADDRESSING THE CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUES AT THE LOWER COURT AND SO WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE WHAT WE ARE HEARING FROM THE AG NOTHING MOVES THEN ABORTION WILL NO LONGER WITH LEGAL AS EARLY AS JUNE 8.

YOU KNOW THAT MAKES WHEN WE ARE DOING AT THE ARIZONA FOR ABORTION ACCESS THE MORE IMPORTANT AND MORE NOW THEN AND THERE EVER TO MAKE SURE WE INSHRINE THE RIGHT IN THES CONSTITUTION >> AS FAR AS THE TIMING, SAY EVEN TODAY IF BOTH CHAMBERS REPEALED THE LAW AND MOST OF THE SUPER MAJORITY ON THIS, TAKES 90 DAYS AFTER THE END OF THE SESSION WE HAVE 60 DAYS BECAUSE OF THE AGREEMENT AND 14 DAYS WITH THE COURT.

NOT GOING TO START FOR AWHILE.

AND YET.

IF IT WERE REPEALD THAT WOULD NOT TAKE AFFECT FOR AWHILE?

>> THERE ARE NOT VOTE FOR EMERGENCY CLAUSE TO MAKE IT SO IMMEDIATELY.

THE 13 WE ARE IN THIS 1864 LAW IS ON THE BOOK, RIGHT?

SO A PRIORITY IS GETTING IT OFF THE BOOKS, ABSOLUTELY.

REGARDLESS IF IT TAKES IMMEDIATE AFFECT OR NOT >> LAST QUESTION, WORSE NIGHT MARRY LAST TUESDAY WAS IT GOING FOR THE INITIATIVE?

>> I WOULD SAY THAT IT WAS NOT A GOOD THING FOR ARIZONA.

I WILL SAY THAT MUCH.

PREGNANT PATIENTS NEAR A STATE OF LIMBO AND DON'T NOT THE LAW AND THE SAME FOR PROVIDERS.

HAD A CHILLING AFFECT ON THE PROVIDE ABORTION IN OUR STATE.

I CAN SAY THAT ARIZONA VOTERS SAW WHAT HAPPENED THEY ARE MAD AS HELL ANYONE ON THE SIDE LINES AND WAITING TO SEE WHAT WAS HAPPENING.

THEY ARE IN THE GAME NOW.

THEY COME OUT, DONE ALL OF THE THINGS WE NEEDED THEM TO DOM SIGNED THE PETITION AND SIGNED UP TO VOLUNTEER TO CIRCULATE THE PETITIONS.

THEY ARE DONATING AND THEY WILL HELP US BE SUCCESSFUL IN NOVEMBER >> THAT WAS THE POINT.

GOOD TO HAVE YOU, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR JOINING US >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

>> ARIZONA PROJECTED HAVE THE NATION'S LARGEST SHORTAGE OF NURSE BY 2025 IN RURAL AREAS.

NORTHERN ARIZONA UNIVERSITY IS WASHING TO ADDRESS THAT ISSUE WITH A NUMBER OF PROGRAMS AND DEGREES.

TELL US MORE WE WELCOME DOCTOR JANINA JOHNSON DEAN OF COLLEGE OF NURSING.

WELCOME, GOOD TO HAVE YOU HERE >> THANK YOU, TED.

GREAT TO BE HERE >> WORSE NURSING SHORTAGE BY 2025, WHY?

THERE ARE MULTIPLE REASONS I WILL TALK ABOUT THE NURSING PROFESSION.

AND HIGHLIGHTING HOW IMPORTANT AND CREDIBLE AND IMPACTFUL OUR PROFESSION IS.

WE HAVE 3 MILLION NURSE THAT ARE REGISTERED NURSE LEVEL OR ABOVE IF YOU INCLUDE ASSISTANTS LICENSED PRACTICAL NURSE.

OVER 5 MILLION NURSE.

NURSING MAKE UP OUR HEALTH CARE SYSTEM.

AND WORLD THE NATION WITHOUT NURSE WOULD BE DEVASTATING.

THIS SHORTAGE IS HAPPENING AND SEEN IT COMING.

A COUPLE REASONS.

ONE AN AGING POPULATION.

AND THIS AGING POPULATION IS TWO FOLD.

ONE NURSE ARE AGE.

OUR NURSES ARE RETIRING.

AT THE TYPE OF THE HEIGHT WE ARE SEEING NURSE RETIRING.

WE ARE SEEING AGING POPULATION THAT IS GROWING.

OUR AGING POPULATION IS GROW WITH MORE CHRONIC ILLNESSES REQUIRING MORE HEALTH CARE >> DID THE PANDEMIC FACT THIS.

>> YES THAT , IS ANOTHER REASON THE PANDEMIC IT AFFECTED ALL PROFESSIONS WITH NURSING THE NURSES THAT WERE GOING TO RETIRE GO EARLIER.

AND THE NEW NURSE TO THE PROFESSION DID EXIT AT THAT TIME.

>> OKAY.

AS FAR AS OCCURRENCE WE HAVE NEW MASTERS OF SCIENCE.

AMERICAN INLDZIAN NURSING PROGRAM WHICH IS NOT NEW BUT SOUNDS EXPAND.

>> THIS IS SO EXCITING.

NORTHERN ARIZONA UNIVERSITY, WE ISSUE DOING A LOT OF INITIATIVES TO ADDRESS THE SHORTAGE WITH AMERICAN INDIAN PROGRAM THAT HAS BEEN IN PLACE SINCE 1996 AND HAD THE LARGEST CLASS.

APPLICANT THIS IS FALL THAT PROGRAM IS FOR NATIVE AMERICAN STUDENTS WHO WANT TO GO BACK AND WORK IN THE RESERVATION IN THEIR COMMUNITY WITH THE HEALTH CARE SETTINGS THAT SERVE THEIR POPULATION >> REMISS FIDID NOT MENTION THE NURSING SIMULATION LABS.

THEY ARE MACHINE KINS BUHMAN CONSISTENCY PLUS.

>> THEY ARE TOTAL LOW.

YES.

AND SO WE WERE FORTUNATE TO RECEIVE FUNDING FROM THE STATE AND BUILT OUT 2 SIMULATION CENTERS ONE IN THE ENERGY STAP STAFF CAMP US AND NORTH PHOENIX CAMPUS.

STUDENTS ARE ABLE TO ENGAGE WITH MAN CONSISTENCY IN SIMULATED ENVIRONMENTS SIMULATE IN PRACTICE AS A BEDSIDE NURSE.

WOW.

ONE LAST THE PSYCHIATRIC NURSE, MENTAL HEALTH.

BIG DEAL.

WE HAVE A MENTAL HEALTH NURSING CRISIS.

THE PSYCHIATRIC MENTAL HEALTH NURSE PRACTITIONER PROGRAMS ADVANCED PROGRAM, WE START IN THE FALL THIS IS TO ADDRESS THE MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS IN ARIZONA.

HOW DO YOU KNOW THE PROGRAMS ARE WORK?

HOW DO YOU FIGURE THAT STUFF OUT?

OR IT IS YOU KNOW BECAUSE THE SHORTAGES YOU SEE >> WE ADDRESS THE SHORTAGES AND KNOW, TOOSHG I THINK THAT WE HAVE WONDERFUL FEEDBACK FROM OUR COMMUNITY.

ON THE VALUE THAT WE BRING FROM NURSES IN GENERAL THAT ARE HELP TO BEING ADDRESS THE SHORTAGE >> DOCTOR JOHNSON, DEAN OF THE NAU COLLEGE OF NURSINGURE OPTIMISTIC THIS WILL GET.

>> ABSOLUTELY.

TELL GET BETTER >> RIGHT.

YOU ARE SEEING STUDENTS INTERESTED IN WORK THEIR WAY IN?

>> YES HAVE GREAT INTERESTS.

IT CONTINUED TO ENTERS IN OUR PROGRAM AND HIGHLIGHT HOW INCREDIBLE AND IMPACTFUL NURSES ARE >> WHERE CAN FOLKS FINDS OUT MORE >> GO TO OUR WEBSITE.

NAUNURSING.ED EDU JOOVMENT CONGRATULATIONS ON THIS YOU GOT HIT THE GROUND RUNNING AND THINGS ARE HAPPENING.

THANK YOU FOR SHARING.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

METABOLIC MEDICINE THE WAY YOUR BODY USES FOOD FOR ENERGY AND HOW METABOLISM AFFECTS THE BODY.

WE LEARN FROM FROM DOCTOR PARKS IN PHYSIOLOGY UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI SCHOOL OF MEDICINE.

>> E LIZ BATH PARKS THANK YOU FOR JOINING US ON ARIZONA HORIZON GOOD TO HAVE YOU >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THIS IS INTERESTING, I LIKE THE FOCUS TO BE METABOLIC MEDICINE.

WHAT IS METABOLIC MEDICINE TEMPERATURE MEANS HOW WE PROCESS AND STORE AND BURN THE FOODS WE EAT.

METABOLISM THE ENGINE THIS RUNS THE BODY.

THE IDEA OF METABOLIC MEDICINE IS THIS IF WE UNDERSTAND HOW WE DEAL WITH FOOD, WHETHER WE BURN OR STORE FAT, IF WE UNDERSTANDS THAT, THAT WILL HELP US MAKE THERAPIES AND CLINICAL MEDICINE.

>> HOW WELL DO WE SNND PRETTY WELL, WE UNDERSTAND THE BASICS OF WHY PEOPLE STORE FAT.

WE UNDERSTAND HOW -- WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE OVER EAT AND WHY THAT CAUSES US TO GAIN WEIGHT.

THE TENANTS THE BASIC OF METABOLISM ARE KNOWN.

BITHINK WHAT WE DISCOVER IS PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT >> THAT'S WHAT IMENTED ASK WITH DIETARY FATS AND CARBS AND PROTEENS THINGS SWING BACK AND FORTH.

BUT THERE IS SEEMS LIKE THE GOAL POSTS MOVE NOT EVERYONE'S METABOLISM IS THE SAY >> TRUE.

NOT EVERYONE IS THE SAME AND WE ARE BEGINNING TO UNDERSTANDS THE CHARACTERISTIC GENETICS AND LIFE TILES CAUSE FAT AND GAIN WEIGHT WHAT HAVE YOU FOUND SO FAR?

>> WE STUDIED TIMING OF FOOD INTAKE AND THE AFFECT OF ADDED SUGARS IN THE DIET FOR THE BODY TO MAKE FAT OUT OF THOSE SUGARS.

>> WHEN IS COME TO TIMING, ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT WHEN YOU EAT AT THE TIME OF DAY OR HOW OFTEN.

>> HOW OFTEN YOU EAT.

WHEN YOU EAT.

HOW FAST YOU EAT.

AND OUR DATA SHOW THAT AS THE DAY GUESS ON THE BODY IS BETTER AND BETTER AT STORING CALORIES.

SO WHEN WE WORK WITH PARENTS WE SHIFT THAT FOOD INTAKE TO THE MORNING TO BREAKFAST.

>> IF THE BODY IS BETTER AT STORING THAT MEAN ITS IS BETTER AT STORING.

>> YEA.

>> MORE DIFFICULT TO BURN OFF >> IT IS WHAT HAPPENS IS FOOD IN THE MORNING IS WHEN YOU ARE FASTED AND YOU ENERGY TAKE IS LOW.

AND SO THE FOOD IN FOR BREAKFAST IS FORTUNATELY STORED AND USED.

AND THEN LUNCH.

THE TANK IS GETTING FULL.

AND DINNER AND AS YOU ADD CALORIES THROUGHOUT THEIDATE CALORIES AT NIGHT THAT THEY ARE STORED MORE EFFICIENTLY.

>> INTERESTING.

YOU MENTIONED FASTING.

THERE IS A THING NOW WITH INTERMITTANT FASTING AND NOT EAT.

WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT.

I DON'T THINK WE DECIDE.

THERE WAS A PAPER THIS WEEK AT A CONFERENCE THAT SUGGESTED THAT THE FASTING MIGHT NOT HELP EVERYONE LOSE WEIGHT.

I THINK THAT BRINGS US TO THE IDEA OF PRECISION MEDICINE.

THE SAME THERAPY MAY NOT BE GOOD FOR EVERYONE >> WITH SUGAR, IS THAT A DONE DEAL FOR EVERYONE.

TOO MUCH SUGAR IS NOT GOOD?

OR IS THAT JURY OUT THERE.

>> IF YOU ARE AN OLYMPIC SWIM ARE I DON'T THINK WE WORRY ABOUT SUGARS.

I THINK -- REALLY THERE ARE THINGS THAT NUTRITIONISTS AGREE ON AND EXCESS ADDED SUGARS UNIFORMLY IS AGREED WE WANT TO AVOID.

>> AVOID THAT BECAUSE OF THE BLOOD SUGAR?

>> ELEVATION OF BLOOD SUGAR AND BECAUSE SUGARS SIGNAL THE BODY TO STORE FAT AND MAKE FAT >> ALL SUGAR SNS IS ORANGE THE SAME AS SUGAR CANDY?

>> IT IS A DOZE AND HOW FAST IT COME INFORM THE FRUIT COME ABSORBS SLOWLY.

>> THE WHOLE FOOD FIBER SLOWS GLUCOSE.

>> YEA.

>> IT COMPARES GRAPE JUICE AND GRAPES.

AND GRAPE JUICE IS A LARGE DOSE COME IN QUICKLY NO FIBER.

VERSUS EATING GRAPES THE DOSE IS SMALLER THE -~IFIABLE ARE MABLGS YOU FULL.

PRECISION MEDICINE, THAT INVOLVED GENETICS AND WHEN WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT EVERYONE IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT >> YES.

PRECISION MEDICINE IS EVOLVING QUICKLY.

AND I THINK THAT THE FIRST WE THOUGHT YOUR GENES ARE DIFFERENT THAN MINEFUL THEY ARE PUT IN AN ENVIRONMENT YOU ARE AT RISK FOR GAINING WEIGHT OR DISEASES THE ENVIRONMENT MATTERS.

WHERE YOU LIVE IN THE COUNTRY.

POLLUTION.

CLEAN WATER.

ALL OF THAT MAKED WITH THE VIPIR AND THE GENES TO PRODUCE DISEASE RISK.

DOES THE WEIGHT MATTER?

IF YOU -- HEARD BODY MASS INDEX.

DOES NOT SEEM LIKE A BIG THING.

THERE ARE FOLKS WHO ARE NOT SLIM AND ATHLETIC.

THEY ARE IN FINE HEALTH WHAT DO WE MAKE.

IT IS DID DISEASE RISK NOT THE SCALE.

AND SO TO ME, THE EMPHASIS ON TREATMENTS FOR OBESITY RELATED DISEASES.

WHEN WE ARE UPON THE MEDICAL SYSTEM IS TRYING TO WE HAVE NEW WEIGHT LOSS DRUGS.

WHEN THE TREATMENT DRURGS UPON BEGIN AND WEIGHT COME DOWN SOMEBODY DOES IN THE NEED TO BE A NORMAL WEIGHT WE ARE NOT TREATING THE WEIGHT.

WHAT THE POSITION IS TREATING IS THE DISEASE RISK.

HYPERTENSION.

THE JOINT PROBLEMS.

THE DIABETES.

>> AND LAST QUESTION.

I CAN TALK ALL DAY ABOUT THIS YOUR RESEARCH OBVIOUSLY IS PART OF CHANGING KNOWLEDGE WITH ALL OF THIS HOW MUCH IS CHANGING?

I JOKED USED TO BE THIS AND THAT.

SEEMS LIKE IT IS ALWAYS THAT WAY.

WILL IT BE THAT WAY FOR AWHILE >> NUTRITION IS A SEASONALS.

ALL SCIENCE IS EXPANDING ALL THE TIME.

WE DON'T EXPECT PHYSIC BHS WE KNOW TO BE THE SAME AS 10 YEARS AGO.

I THINK THE AVERAGE CONSUMER SHOULD EXPECT WE KNOW MORE EVERY YEAR ABOUT NUTRITION.

I THINK WE ARE AT THE POINT NOW.

THERE WILL NOT BE NEW VIOLET MINCE DISCOVERED.

WHERE NUTRITION SCIENCE IS NOW TO UNDERSTAND THE RISKS OF A PERSON WITH THE GENES IN THEIR ENVIRONMENT AND THE TOED THEYATE.

IN THE FUTURE, OPT MIEGZ THE DIET FOR YOU MAY BE DIFFERENT FOR ME.

>> FASCINATING.
