This Week on TheHealthHub…The Impact of Loneliness with Dr. Christopher Fagundes

 

Dr. Christopher Fagundes is an Assistant Professor at the Rice University.  Working in the area of psychoneuroimmunology, Dr. Fagundes uses theories and methods from social, developmental, and clinical psychology to understand how stress “gets under the skin” to impact diseases of older adulthood such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, fatigue, and cognitive decline (i.e. Alzheimer’s disease & other forms of dementia). He is particularly interested in how those who experienced early life stress and/or are low socioeconomic status (SES) are disproportionally burdened by the negative physiological consequences of stress. He has authored more than 70 articles and chapters in journals such as JAMA Psychiatry, Health Psychology, Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, Developmental Psychology, Brain, Behavior & Immunity, and Psychoneuroendocrinology.

Currently, Dr. Fagundes has an National Institutes of Health funded R01 grant examining how relationship insecurity (or attachment insecurity) in the context of losing a spouse impacts inflammation, which is prognostic for cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, and Alzheimer’s disease. He is also adopting theoretically based interventions to improve the negative physical health consequences of bereavement.

Learning Points:

  • What is loneliness?
  • Why are there so many lonely people in our society today?
  • How does loneliness impact our physical health?

Integrative Therapies: Adding Health to Your Cancer Care

Integrative Cancer Care is becoming more mainstream as we are understanding that the health of cancer patients needs to be tended to as well as the disease.  A well designed Integrative cancer care plan considers the whole person, mind, body and soul.  It addresses the patient’s nutritional needs before, during and post treatment.  It takes in to consideration lifestyle factors such as exercise and sleep patterns.  Environmental factors that can influence toxic load are discussed and modified where possible.  Attention to mindset and stress management is a key area that is often neglected but vital for patient outcome.

The study cited below examined an integrative approach for breast cancer patients:

“The integration of a 12-week CIM (Complimentary and Integrative Medicine) intervention in conventional supportive cancer care may reduce nausea and improve appetite in patients with breast/gynecological cancer undergoing chemotherapy.”

Effect of a 12-week integrative oncology intervention on gastro-intestinal concerns in patients with gynecological and breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy

Preparing patients for treatment and managing side effects is a key area of integrative care.  If we can strengthen a patient’s immune system before treatment and understand possible side effects of that treatment we can at the very least mitigate severity.

And a life long path of integrative preventative care is essential not only for each and every cancer patient but for all people as we hope to live a life of health and vitality.

Your Integrative Cancer Care needs to start today.
