We're at a time where unfortunately science 37 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: feels like it's under attack, and it really feels more 38 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: important than ever to have trusted guides to help us 39 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: navigate the overwhelming world, not just of health, but the 40 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly vulnerable world of children's health.

You know, we're out here doing 52 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 2: our best, and the negative voices sound louder sometimes than 53 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 2: the positive ones, and so it's totally good to hear 54 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: some validation that there's people that are listening. 55 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: Absolutely, And you know, it's not lost on me that 56 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: you've built this incredible following online because so many people, 57 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: I think, feel the way we do.

That I don't need to. 62 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: It's such a complex space because sadly, there's a lot 63 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: of people profiting off of misinformation, and we're all incredibly 64 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: vulnerable when it comes to the fear we carry for 65 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: the kids in our lives. So it's like, I get it, 66 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: and it's frustrating, and that's why I like to talk 67 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: to experts like you. 68 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: One hundred percent. 69 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,239 Speaker 1: So before I ask you about your career, if it's cool, 70 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: I actually want to do a quick rewind down memory lane. 71 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: I always like to know how people grew up where 72 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: they grew up, and I'm really curious if you got 73 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 1: to go hang out with eight or nine year old Megan. 74 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: Was she one of those kids that from a young 75 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: age was like, I'm gonna be a doctor or did 76 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: you have totally separate goals as a child. 77 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 2: I grew up wanting to be a doctor, Like I've 78 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 2: wanted to be a doctor as long as I can 79 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 2: actually remember, my dad's father was a physician, and he 80 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 2: was someone that just took care of the community, like 81 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 2: would trade medical care for chickens if you couldn't pay. Wow, 82 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 2: he was awesome. My mom was in the medical field. 83 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 2: Cheese an X ray tech my dad was a law 84 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 2: enforcement officer, and so just having the like adrenaline on 85 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: one side and then the medical care on the other side. Yeah, 86 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 2: and I met in the middle with emergency medicine and 87 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 2: I very quickly fell in love with it, and it's 88 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 2: kind of all I wanted to do, like most of 89 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 2: my life. 90 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: Wow, So what do you think drew you to pediatric 91 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: emergency medicine? Was that sort of part of the rotation 92 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: you go through in med school where you have to 93 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: get into every specialty for a bit and then you 94 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: figure out what lights you up or did you always 95 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: kind of have a hunch that it would be emergency 96 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: medicine because of that sort of duality in your family. 97 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 2: I really liked the adrenaline aspect. Pediatrics was one of 98 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 2: the first rotations I fell in love with it. There 99 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: is so much hope when it comes to kids, there's 100 00:05:55,880 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 2: so much resilience in recovery possible. And emergency medicine was 101 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 2: actually a late rotation, so I didn't even know that 102 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 2: I was going to apply to it until the end, 103 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 2: and so I ended up applying for pediatrics and emergency 104 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 2: medicine in the match program. So when I submitted that match. 105 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: I actually didn't know what kind of doctor I was 106 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: going to be, if I was going to get picked 107 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 2: for emergency or pediatrics, but I kind of ultimately I 108 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 2: knew the end goal was pediatric emergency medicine, so I 109 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 2: knew I would be fine either way, but you know 110 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: which direction to go was still a mystery. 111 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 1: Do you get what's happening in my brain? Which is also, 112 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: to be clear, both from watching and acting on Gray's 113 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: Anatomy all these years, I'm like, oh, yeah, when you're 114 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: in your pieds rotation, like I hear myself saying the terms, which, 115 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: to be fair, I know because I once also thought 116 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: I was going to be a doctor, and then I 117 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: wound up being in the circus instead. Like do you 118 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: find that people who watch medical shows can banter some 119 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: of those like not quite Layman's just above terms with you? 120 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: Or are you like, I get it, everyone's seen twenty 121 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: years of great anatomy, but you have no idea what 122 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 1: you're talking. 123 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 2: About, you know. I think it's cool with shows like 124 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 2: Gray's Anatomy and The Pit and some of the other 125 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 2: medical shows have really brought a lot of what it's 126 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 2: like to be a doctor, to be a resident, Yeah, 127 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 2: to kind of come up through the ranks to see what, 128 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: you know, a better idea of what it's really like 129 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 2: to do that. And so I think there's a lot 130 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 2: more terminology that used to be, you know, more medical 131 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 2: is now more kind of in the mainstream. And I 132 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 2: think it's cool because I think it's people have a 133 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 2: better idea of what I went through to be where 134 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 2: I'm at now, all those years of education and training. 135 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 2: So I don't I think a lot of people don't 136 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 2: take that for granted, and they understand that there's a 137 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 2: lot to it totally. 138 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: You know, it's really interesting. You're bringing up something that 139 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: makes me think, I think, kind of pulling back the 140 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: veil on any of these worlds industries that seem kind 141 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: of glamorous or exciting, or that people assume must be 142 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: really hoity toity. You know, you become this big deal 143 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: doctor and everyone thinks, oh, wow, your life must be 144 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: so fancy, and you're like, do you know what my 145 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: life is? It's actually so crazy. I think there's something 146 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: too letting people in, and especially in the field of medicine, 147 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: letting folks who haven't gone through it, they haven't gone 148 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: through the years of schooling, the rotations, the residency, this 149 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: whole placement program, all those steps, letting people see that 150 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: doctors do this because they love it. Doctors do this 151 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: because they want to take care of people. They want 152 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:38,719 Speaker 1: healthy kids, healthy communities, healthy families. There's so much misinformation 153 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: out online. You know, there's a lot of accounts saying, oh, well, 154 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: the reason vaccines are you know, fill in the blank, 155 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: crazy theory. Don't even want to say it because I 156 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,079 Speaker 1: know it's nuts, is because doctors get paid. And recently 157 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: I saw a great science communicator, of which I, you know, 158 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,199 Speaker 1: consider you to be one. My friend Jess Malatte Rivera, 159 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: who helped run the COVID track project, is another great one. 160 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: This great science communicator I follow said, actually, no, we've 161 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: had enough generations of vaccine science that we forget what 162 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 1: it was like when so many kids got sick and died. 163 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: We forget that one hundred, one hundred and fifty years 164 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: ago in this country, one in five kids died before 165 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: their fifth birthday. And by the way, vaccine storage is 166 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: actually very expensive, and most doctors lose money giving them, 167 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: but they give them because we need them. And that 168 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: was a point that I wish she didn't have to make, 169 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 1: but also I hadn't seen made before, and I was like, oh, yeah, 170 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: people probably need to know that it costs money to 171 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: give this kind of medical care and you do it 172 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: anyway because it's the right thing to do. And I 173 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: use that example only to say, because of this following 174 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: you've built up, you've been answering all these questions for people, 175 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: and you know, like so many you've said like, okay, 176 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: we're in lockdown, how can I help? What are some 177 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: of the things you've communicated to your audience that you've 178 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,319 Speaker 1: seen really ring the like ding ding ding, Oh, I 179 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: didn't know that bell That helps shift the fear, and 180 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: that help people really trust science and medicine a little 181 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: bit more. 182 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 2: I think trying to break down some of the more 183 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 2: complex topics. You know, we use some of these words regularly, 184 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 2: like immunity and prevention, and as physicians and science people, 185 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 2: sometimes we're using these in a completely different context than 186 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 2: what a lay person would use, Like when you know, 187 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 2: we're talking about transmission in a community, someone else might 188 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 2: be talking about transmission person to person. So trying to 189 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 2: clarify those I think that there's been some breakthroughs. I 190 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 2: think one of the other big things that people don't 191 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 2: realize or maybe that you know, people make associations. They 192 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 2: think immunization's medication, and they use their knowledge of medication 193 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 2: and dosage and ingredients and they bring that to immunizations, 194 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 2: where immunizations are really not metations. Really, immunizations are something 195 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 2: that's completely different. They're not changing the physiology of your body. 196 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 2: They're not changing like the sodium calcium channels like some 197 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 2: medications do. They're stimulating an immune response, and that immune 198 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 2: response is creating antibodies and cells. But it's not you know, 199 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 2: a medication that you're taking every day for years that 200 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 2: we're worried about, you know, long term complications from and 201 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 2: fifteen years down the road, we're worried about something with 202 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 2: a medication which happens absolutely happy. Yeah, immunizations just don't 203 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 2: work the same way as medications do. And so I think, 204 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: you know, having some of those breakthroughs where people go, oh, okay, 205 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 2: you know, I was bringing that knowledge of medications and 206 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 2: thinking about immunizations. But I think that's kind of an 207 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 2: important distinction that helps people kind of pull those apart 208 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 2: and realize that there is a difference. 209 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, do you think part of the reason that you 210 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: can really understand how to translate some of that terminology, 211 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: how to translate those linguists dick specifics if you will, 212 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: is because you're a mom of four. Because I find 213 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: that moms who are experts at anything complex, whether it's 214 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 1: the law, medicine, you name it, are the best at 215 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:19,959 Speaker 1: explaining those things to the rest of us that are curious, afraid, excited, 216 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 1: whatever experience we're having. But like the lay people, if 217 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: I can get a mom who's an expert to explain 218 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 1: something to me, I feel like she gives me the 219 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: best lesson I've ever had. 220 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 2: I think it's possible. I had my first kid in 221 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 2: medical school, and then I had one in residency and 222 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 2: fellowship and as an attending so I've had kids like 223 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 2: I feel like forever. So I think it's possible. You know, 224 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 2: I think that we all have certain skills, and you know, 225 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 2: you could go your whole life and not realize that 226 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 2: you have this skill related to it. Maybe you would 227 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 2: be an excellent Obo player and you never, you know, 228 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 2: got the chance to play Obo. And I think that 229 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 2: the communication that I'm able to do on social media 230 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 2: is unlike skill that I have in real life, and 231 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 2: I think it's just something that it clicked and it worked, 232 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 2: and it brought these pieces of a puzzle together and 233 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 2: it works. And I don't know if it's having kids 234 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 2: or not, because I have had them forever, but whatever 235 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 2: it is, it works, and people are learning and getting educated, 236 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,119 Speaker 2: and we're kind of breaking through some of these barriers 237 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 2: of the communication issues that we have between the medicine 238 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 2: and the people that don't have that background. 239 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: Maybe part of it even is the fact that you know, 240 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: you are you're a mom of four. You know what 241 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: moms need to hear, you know what information they should have. 242 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: You know that parents are being inundated with all this 243 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: stuff in the algorithm and how to kind of push 244 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: back against it. And I think that's really important in 245 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: times like this, you know, whether it's the COVID nineteen 246 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 1: pandemic outbreak in twenty twenty, when you started really speaking 247 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: to people on social media, which I would call a 248 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: public health service, whether it's you know, helping parents understand 249 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: what to do in an emergency. I saw one video 250 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: you did about like, oh a kids swallowed you know, 251 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: one of those crazy like brush scrubber things, and you 252 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: were like this is what to do? And I was like, 253 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: I would never have known this. You know, you give 254 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: great advice on all sorts of things, like you said, 255 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: from medication to allergic reactions in kids, what to look for, 256 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: you know, what might be a reaction to an ointment 257 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: versus actual exzema. Like, I've learned so much just from 258 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: watching you. How do you decide what you're going to 259 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: talk about? When you do decide to communicate about something, 260 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: Is it because you get an influx of questions? Or 261 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: is it because there's some sort of news like this week, 262 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: despite all scientific research having shown that there is no 263 00:14:55,520 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: correlation between a seedamnifin and autism. You know, we've got 264 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: a guy with no medical degree saying from the White 265 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: House pulpit that there is Like how do you help 266 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: parents and especially pregnant women not feel afraid? 267 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 2: Yeah? I think uh as For like, how do I 268 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 2: decide about content? It's very very random, and it's usually 269 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 2: last minute. Yeah, And a lot of times it'll be 270 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 2: like a question or maybe like a case that I 271 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 2: had or an idea that came across. But a lot 272 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 2: of times it is you know, news or a press 273 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 2: conference or something that came up that you know, I said, oh, 274 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 2: you know, there's gonna be a lot of questions about 275 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 2: this or I see how this could be easily misunderstood, 276 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 2: So let's talk about it, let's clarify it. And there's 277 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 2: a lot of things out there. And I, like you said, 278 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 2: I am a mom and just because I'm a doctor, 279 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 2: it doesn't mean that I don't have like the fears 280 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 2: and anxiety of momming. I have all of those fears 281 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 2: in anxiety. And so you know, if I see something 282 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 2: and I go, oh, that makes me a little I 283 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 2: get I caught some feelings there. I want to make 284 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 2: a video and want to talk about it because I 285 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 2: want to bring it down to a level where we 286 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 2: don't need to be scared. These are the things that 287 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 2: we need to be watching out for, and these are 288 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 2: the things that we can do to help protect ourselves 289 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 2: or something like that. You know, with all of the 290 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 2: things that have happened in the last you know, months, years, 291 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 2: I've done my best to be very open about my 292 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 2: life and my feelings and try to address the things 293 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 2: that have happened in a way that I'm providing facts 294 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 2: and evidence based information and data to back up what 295 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 2: I'm saying. Things are very politically charged, and I really 296 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 2: I think we really just need to be focused on 297 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 2: the science and the data and where the evidence is 298 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 2: pointing us where our kids and for our families and 299 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 2: for our health in general. 300 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: I think that's so smart. You know. One of the 301 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: things that I saw this week that to your point, 302 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: helped me bring it down where I was like, wait, 303 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 1: what do you mean? And I've read the Sweden study 304 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: and I've went like hold on, you know, because I 305 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: did think I was going to go to medical school. 306 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: I weirdly like to read the AMA papers like it 307 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 1: helps me feel grounded when there's so much information and 308 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: so much noise. And when I read about actually the 309 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: risk to pregnant women, especially in their first trimester of fever, 310 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, okay, this is the thing that 311 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: expectant moms need to know. They need to know the 312 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:31,239 Speaker 1: risks of running a fever for the fetus, for their 313 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: unborn child, Like okay, And then I went down the 314 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: rabbit hole of that and went all right, I feel 315 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: better armed to understand where the most important weight needs 316 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: to be placed in this larger conversation. And something that 317 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 1: I really got excited to talk to you about because 318 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: you do such great videos and such great communications. Anytime 319 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 1: there's an issue, I'm like, what's doctor Beach saying? One 320 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 1: of the things that I am running into in my 321 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 1: family and extended family, you know, with all the littles 322 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: around and my godson, and everyone is trying to figure 323 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: out especially with kids that have sensitivities and ezema, and like, 324 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: you know, I'm the asthmatic ezema baby of my family, 325 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: so I know how it is is trying to figure 326 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: out what is a body having a little reaction to 327 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: something new, maybe a histamine reaction, and then what is 328 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,199 Speaker 1: a body, especially a little body, experiencing if this is 329 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: really an allergy. And there's a lot of news out 330 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: there today, but the thing I really wanted to ask 331 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 1: you about was that, if you don't mind me asking 332 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: my most personal question, you know, how do you identify 333 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 1: a childhood allergy versus a sensitivity? How do you know? 334 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 1: And you probably see them in the er all the time, 335 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 1: Like what even are the allergies that bring kids into 336 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,439 Speaker 1: the er the most? I feel a little riddorless on this, 337 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: and I'm nervous, so I want to ask doctor mom. 338 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 2: The thing that we as er doctors cant concerned about 339 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:05,199 Speaker 2: is anaphylaxis, and anaphylaxis is a life threatening emergency allergic reaction. 340 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 2: And if you have anaphylaxis, the treatment that needs to 341 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 2: be administered to save a life is epinephrine. And we 342 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 2: have a couple of different ways to administer it now, 343 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 2: you know, most notably is the EpiPen, which is a 344 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,360 Speaker 2: kind of slam it into the thigh and it injects 345 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 2: the epinephrine. There's also a little nose spray now and 346 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 2: potentially down the road, even things that dissolve in the mouth. 347 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 2: So you know, I think people do get nervous with 348 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 2: EpiPens because it is a needle. They haven't used it before, 349 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 2: and so there's a lot of people that are hesitant 350 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 2: to use that EpiPen. And I would just so encourage 351 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 2: people if you are concerned that the patient, your child's, 352 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 2: someone in your community has an anaphylactic reaction, just administer 353 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,360 Speaker 2: the medication. There's more harm for not administering it than 354 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 2: actually for administering it. And the definition for anaphylaxis is 355 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 2: a little it's there's not a real good a definition. 356 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, how do you identify it? 357 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 2: We usually say if you are exposed to something that 358 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 2: you potentially could be having a reaction to. And you 359 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 2: have two systems that are involved to body systems, so 360 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 2: like respiratory systems, skin you know, mucous membranes, and so 361 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 2: if you have hives and you're wheezing and you might 362 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 2: have been exposed to something, that's two systems. You've got 363 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 2: respiratory and skin anaphylaxis, go ahead and give the e 364 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 2: FI and get into the emergency department. A lot of 365 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 2: people will say, well, I'm just gonna try the benadryl first, 366 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 2: and we honestly don't recommend it. We don't want to 367 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 2: hide those symptoms. We want to treat them with the epinephrine. 368 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 2: Even vomiting like GI as a symptoms. So if you 369 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 2: had hives and vomiting, that could that could potentially be anaphylaxis. 370 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 2: Now there are times that you could have hives and 371 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 2: wheezing and it's a viral infection. So there is that, 372 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 2: you know, potential of like you have to pay attention to, 373 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 2: is there a potential for an interaction that could be allergic. 374 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 2: So anaphylaxis a little complicated, but again more toward the epinephrine. 375 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 2: That's the life saving treatment. 376 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: And now a word from our sponsors that I really 377 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: enjoy and I think you will too. Okay, can I 378 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: ask an asterisk question? So, for example, you could have 379 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: two of those symptoms and it's not anaphylaxis, it's you know, 380 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 1: some other reaction. But am I right to think, well, 381 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 1: maybe do you identify that it might be anaphylaxis if 382 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 1: two systems are engaged skin and respiratory will keep it 383 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: in the example, within an hour of eating, maybe an 384 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: hour of eating in a new place, or an hour 385 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: of eating a new food, what would kind of be 386 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: the timeline that for you would ring the alarm bell. 387 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, so again with the potential for a new exposure. 388 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 2: You ate somewhere new, and these symptoms started pretty close together. 389 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 2: I think the kind of asterisk for me is, you know, 390 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 2: is it a viral infection? Generally you're gonna have like cough, 391 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 2: running nose for a couple of days, and then you're 392 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 2: wheezing a little bit, and then maybe you develop hives. 393 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 2: But you know, things have been going on for a 394 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 2: couple days and there's pretty obviously something else going on. 395 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 2: Whereas you know, you walked into a basketball game and 396 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 2: somebody had a cologne on and then you ate something 397 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 2: you haven't eaten before, and all of a sudden, you 398 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 2: you know, you start feeling some throat tightenness, you're wheezing, 399 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: and you have hives. Okay, maybe that that is more 400 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 2: likely to be anaphylaxis than a cute onset of a 401 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 2: viral infection, and the epinephron would be indicated. 402 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: Okay, So the even though acute for me, sounds pretty 403 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 1: quick when you say a cute onset of a viral infection. 404 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 1: To your point hypothetical, your kid's been sick for five 405 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: days and the symptoms are increasing as their body is 406 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,479 Speaker 1: working harder and harder to fight the infection. You know 407 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:56,439 Speaker 1: they're sick. The anaphylaxis is alarming in the rapidness of 408 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: its onset from zero right. 409 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 2: Usually anaphylex symptoms are going to happen within about we 410 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 2: often maybe fifteen minutes. Wow, I mean, they could be 411 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,120 Speaker 2: seconds from exposure, but usually it's going to be within 412 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 2: a fifteen minute or so time period from whatever exposure 413 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 2: it is. So if all of a sudden you're good 414 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 2: and then you're not good, and you have two systems involved, 415 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 2: that would be something that would be concerning. 416 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: Okay, and the two system indicator is really nice. I 417 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 1: like a specific instruction. You talked skin and respiratory. You 418 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: mentioned mucosal. That's three. What are what are the other 419 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 1: systems that could be affected by an allergic reaction that 420 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 1: parents should know? 421 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 2: So g I would be the other big yeah, okay, 422 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 2: you know, a vomiting diarrhead it would be the other 423 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 2: one in addition to the respiratory. 424 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: So two of those four are really strong indicators. When 425 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 1: a kid comes in to the er with a severe 426 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 1: allergic reaction, what are the first steps that you take? 427 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,199 Speaker 1: Because sure, if it happens at a school, at a 428 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: basketball game, you know, someone might have an EpiPen. But 429 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: if it happens and a family doesn't have access to 430 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: that and they bring their kid into the er, is 431 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: that the very first thing you do is the is 432 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 1: the EpiPen? 433 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: Absolutely? Still Oka Absolutely, And we you know we have 434 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 2: we're able to draw up at be from a vial. 435 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 2: It takes time, we actually have EpiPens in our department 436 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 2: that we can go all right, you know I'm concerned 437 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 2: about anaphylexis let's let's go and you know we can 438 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 2: get that very quickly to bedside, to start the treatment 439 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 2: for anaplexis. 440 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: That's amazing because in my brain I was like, oh, 441 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 1: maybe you guys, you know, get a sick kid, check 442 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 1: them in, run an iv line, put the ePIE in 443 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: the ivy. You're like, no, I'm using an EpiPen too, 444 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: because it's the quickest and it's efficient. Okay, absolutely, person question, 445 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: but when you were saying people get nervous about doing 446 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 1: the shot in the thigh, can it go anywhere in 447 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 1: a thigh? Is it supposed to be the top, the side, 448 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,880 Speaker 1: closer to the butt, closer to the knee. I've never 449 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: had to give one to somebody, so I realized I 450 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: would be nervous to do this. 451 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 2: Also, yeah, you generally kind of toward the outside of 452 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 2: the thigh, and you can even give it through pants 453 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 2: are clothing if it's an emergency, if you can't really 454 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 2: that spot, Yeah, that needle will go all the way 455 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,679 Speaker 2: through obviously if you can get the pants down, and 456 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 2: it's reasonable to do that. But you know, if in 457 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 2: an emergency, you can go right through clothing kind of 458 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 2: on the outside of the thigh. And like I said, 459 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 2: there are other modalities now. So there's like a nose 460 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 2: spray that you can do. There is an automated one 461 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 2: as well, so you can you kind of put that 462 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 2: one right up against the thigh and you press a 463 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 2: button and it kind of talks you through it. So 464 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,880 Speaker 2: there's some other ones now, but the most important thing 465 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 2: is just to get the epinephrin in the patient. There 466 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 2: are some trainers. If you have a child that has 467 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 2: anaflex or if you have it, you can ask your 468 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,439 Speaker 2: doctor for a trainer and it'll you can literally just 469 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 2: kind of play with it. There's no needle in it, 470 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 2: so it's not gonna hurt you, and it shows you, 471 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 2: you know what this is what it feels like when 472 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 2: it releases. You know, you can feel the mechanism on 473 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 2: the inside. You can also like the one that talks 474 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 2: to you. It talks you through what you're doing. So 475 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,120 Speaker 2: it's really cool. There's a lot of really neat technology 476 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 2: that's in the future coming which is exciting, but most 477 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 2: important thing for anphylaxis, the life saving treatment is just 478 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 2: to do the epinephrin. 479 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. Wow, Okay, that's really cool that there's options to 480 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: teach your kids what to expect if I went through 481 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 1: this recently, my partner's little one. One of her kids 482 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 1: has asthma, and I have asthma, and the terror about 483 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: the nebulizer on the first couple of times it had 484 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,360 Speaker 1: to be used absolutely shattered my heart. And I was like, oh, 485 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: let me get mine. Ou like, I got a nebulizer, 486 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 1: let's go. And we started, during this asthma flair, having 487 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: like a nebulizer tea party at the little kid's table. 488 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: And now she's not scared of it. And it was, 489 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 1: you know, just luck of the draw that I could 490 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 1: do that for and with her, and that I've done 491 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 1: this my whole life. You know, I think I was 492 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: diagnosed with asthma when I was five or six. I'd 493 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 1: have to ask my mom, but it really I think 494 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 1: as adults we can forget how scary some of this 495 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: stuff is for kids. And I didn't know that they 496 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: had those. So that's really really cool, what a cool thing. 497 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:24,239 Speaker 1: And I almost wonder too, if that's something that you know, 498 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: parents could talk to their kids' schools about, even saying, hey, 499 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,439 Speaker 1: can you get some of these in classrooms so that 500 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 1: they know if their friend has to get an EpiPen 501 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 1: injection or if they have to get an EpiPen injection, 502 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 1: they don't have to be afraid. 503 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,479 Speaker 2: I try to bring the trainers with me, like when 504 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 2: I do like the Great American Teaching and stuff like that, 505 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 2: just to give the kids this is what it is, 506 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 2: this is how you can use it, and the kids 507 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,399 Speaker 2: can do it on each other and on themselves. So 508 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 2: it's a great opportunity to kind of teach them this 509 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 2: is what it is, this is why we use it, 510 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,239 Speaker 2: and this is what it feels like to actually use one, 511 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 2: which is neat. 512 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 1: That's really cool. I know it's pretty difficult to prevent 513 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: exposure to allergens, whether a kid has a food allergy 514 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: or something that they don't even know about yet. But 515 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,199 Speaker 1: are there things you recommend to parents, especially in that 516 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:13,199 Speaker 1: early developmental stage where we're figuring out whether or not 517 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,639 Speaker 1: a kid has allergies, whether or not a kid has asthma. 518 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: Are there recommendations you give them about reducing risk and 519 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: mitigating risk. 520 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 2: I think we have a lot of really newish data 521 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 2: that shows that introducing things that are potential allergens early 522 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 2: in life, like some of the first introductions to foods, 523 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 2: actually help reduce the risk that they're going to continue 524 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 2: to have issues with those in the future. So we 525 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 2: actually recommend early exposure to peanut butter and regular exposure 526 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 2: to peanut butter as soon as babies are starting solids 527 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 2: from you know, that five to six month time, starting 528 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 2: with a small amount and just giving it every day, 529 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 2: especially for family, every day, just a small amount, and 530 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 2: then you can even you know, up to like a 531 00:28:55,600 --> 00:29:00,040 Speaker 2: teaspoon or something like that. The patients that have the 532 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 2: families that have allergies running in the family, these can 533 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 2: reduce the risk that the child will have reactions to 534 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 2: it in the future. And having a wide variety of 535 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 2: diet and regular use of things that are potential allergens 536 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 2: like fish and meats and vegetables and fruits that are 537 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 2: common allergens, introducing those early so that the body just 538 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 2: gets used to them is less likely to have a 539 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 2: reaction in the future. So we're getting you know, science 540 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 2: has kind of gone both ways. We used to say 541 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 2: avoid it until they're older, but now early introduction seems 542 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 2: to reduce the risk of having those allergies in the future. 543 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: That's really cool. I mean I understand that with you know, 544 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: the the kind of genetic lottery that exists when when 545 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: kids are created, there's a high likelihood that a lot 546 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: of things are genetically inherited. Will the switch turn on 547 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: or off? We don't know, Like with allergies, So is 548 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: the idea because again, you know, I'm allergic to everything 549 00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: as Maticgarreer, is the idea that, like, the more exposure 550 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: they have to these things, you actually increase the likelihood 551 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: that that switch won't turn on. They could have a 552 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: capacity to have allergies to foods, but should they be 553 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: exposed early and regularly, that might not turn into something 554 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: that is a reaction. 555 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's important to know what the allergies are. 556 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,719 Speaker 2: And the allergy that we're talking about is an antibody, 557 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 2: an IgE antibody that's reacting to a substance that our 558 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 2: body seeses foreign or I mean really it is a 559 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 2: foreign substance, but our body is creating this IgE reaction. 560 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 2: And so if we're introducing them early and regular, the 561 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 2: body is not seeing them as the same type of 562 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 2: foreign and their IgE reaction isn't happening. So again, the 563 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 2: data is always changing, but I think it's right now. 564 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 2: The data really shows that early introduction and regular exposure 565 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 2: to some of these allergens reduces the risk in the future. 566 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 2: So I think that getting families, especially those that are 567 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 2: born at risk for allergies. We've got this kind of triangle, right, 568 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 2: So you've got asthma, allergies, and exzema in this little 569 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 2: triangle that these things tend to run together. So in 570 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 2: families that we have asthma and exzema and maybe some allergies, 571 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 2: consider you know, talking to your doctor about making sure 572 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 2: that you're introducing things like peanut butter and maybe certain 573 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 2: fruits early in the food journey as babies. 574 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: That's really cool. When you were talking about the IgE response, 575 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, I get what you're saying. It's 576 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: sort of like having a terribly behaved dog at the 577 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: dog park that attacks the other dogs versus a dog 578 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: that can like chill and look at another dog and 579 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 1: be like whatever and go back to what it's doing. 580 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 1: It's like the exposure actually helps your body not attack 581 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 1: the thing that's moving through your system. 582 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 2: YEP, absolutely, Okay, I like it. 583 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: So when you talk about options like this, you know 584 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: what the data says. The cool thing about science is 585 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: it's always evolving, right, We're always learning more. We get 586 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: to perfect our recommendations, we get to tinker with our 587 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 1: plans based on new information, but based on what we 588 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: know now, if a child has complex allergies, would you 589 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: recommend parents focus on this sort of exposure therapy or 590 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 1: do you think they should also seek out an allergist 591 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: to create a plan. What does a plan like that 592 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,479 Speaker 1: look like? And I ask because when I was seven, 593 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: I was on allergy shops for a while. My parents 594 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: are always like, hey, we got a bubble boy over here, 595 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 1: and I it was really helpful for me then, but 596 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 1: obviously I was too young to really know what was 597 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 1: going on and to feel like I'm armed with that 598 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: information now. So how does a parent know whether they 599 00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 1: need to have a plan from an allergist or they 600 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 1: can just kind of manage at home symptoms and exposures. 601 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 2: So I think starting with your pediatrician is always the 602 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 2: right answer. Pediatricians, you know we infant nutrition is you know, 603 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 2: we are specialists in that. So starting with your pediatrician 604 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 2: working through a nutrition exposure plan as little babies and 605 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 2: as they get older if they're having allergies and eggemn asthma, 606 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 2: I think getting into an allergist is a great idea. 607 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 2: There are so many, like I said, new technologies and 608 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 2: new data and research out there, and allergists are very 609 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 2: specially specifically trained to deal with this. So I think 610 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 2: getting into an allergist like Ruben Allergy, who's one of 611 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 2: my favorite people, would be a great place to start. 612 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: Okay, cool, is there anything that those of us you 613 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: know who follow you and support your work, but don't 614 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: you know live where you live in Florida. I asked 615 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 1: this question because my partners from Florida and we do 616 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 1: really love home, and I know it can be a 617 00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: scary place to practice medicine right now with all this 618 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: hoopla about vaccine mandates, you know, potentially being eradicated, like 619 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: whether it's sort of rallying cry stuff or petitions to sign, 620 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 1: or even just like saying hi, we're supporting you from afar, 621 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: Like can we do anything from out of state to 622 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 1: support the work you're doing in state to try to 623 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: keep kids and families healthy? 624 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 2: You know, I think it's tough. I think talking with 625 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 2: our congress people, representatives, senators to talk about what's really 626 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 2: important on a national level and making sure that science 627 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 2: and data and evidence are prioritized on a national level 628 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 2: is really important. So I think advocating through you know, 629 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 2: our means our representatives is the great place to start, 630 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 2: and I know always I would always appreciate the social 631 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 2: media support and all of the other creators out there 632 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 2: also pushing science and data making sure that we're supporting 633 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 2: them as well. 634 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I really try with folks you know, 635 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: like you and other friends in scientific fields. I'm like, 636 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:05,720 Speaker 1: let me just engage with these posts all the time 637 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 1: so they're getting some positivity and some love. So all 638 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 1: of our whipsmarties at home. I'm so proud that my 639 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 1: audience is very like, very wise, and also they love 640 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,840 Speaker 1: data like I do. Please go engage and leave kindness 641 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 1: for our medical heroes because they deal with a lot 642 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: of other stuff too. I really want to respect your time. 643 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: I'm going to ask you my last question, even though 644 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: I want to ask you one hundred more. For you, 645 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 1: you know, you do a lot of big work for 646 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: the world. You do a lot of big work in 647 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 1: a hospital. A lot of it is for community, but 648 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: like just for you, for doctor Beach, for Megan, what's 649 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: bringing you joy? And what is your work in progress 650 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: right now? And maybe it is for everyone, but maybe 651 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: it's like something you're working on for yourself. 652 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 2: I would say that social media for me is it 653 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 2: really is a coping mechanism, the ability to connect with 654 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 2: like minded peace, you know.

Not 661 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 2: every emergency department is the same, and the care that 662 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 2: kids get in an adult or community emergency department is 663 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 2: not often the same as they're going to get in 664 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 2: a pediatric er.

And sometimes 677 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,439 Speaker 1: we feel a little boxed in by the world around us, 678 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 1: and this digital world, for all of its flaws, I mean, 679 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes it's sort of accessible. Can also be 680 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:28,479 Speaker 1: a space where you can like drop a life raft 681 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 1: out for people.
