EPISODE SUMMARY:
In this episode of Frank About Health, we explore food as medicine—not in theory, but in real life. At a time when stress, caregiving demands, and health uncertainty are at an all-time high, this episode introduces a new healing-centered kitchen segment focused on nourishment, resilience, and simplicity. Rather than chasing perfection or trends, the conversation centers on how intentional, affordable meals can support brain health, reduce inflammation, and restore a sense of control during moments when life feels overwhelming.
Guided by Joey’s hands-on experience as a nutrition-focused caregiver, listeners will hear how everyday cooking can become a stabilizing force for individuals and families navigating illness, fatigue, and limited resources. This episode offers practical takeaways, thoughtful perspective, and a calming reminder that healing doesn’t start in a clinic—it often starts in the kitchen. Whether you’re caring for someone else or trying to care for yourself, this episode provides grounded insight you can apply immediately.
Whether you’re caring for a loved one, managing your own health, or simply trying to eat better without overwhelm, this episode offers clear takeaways, affordable strategies, and calming guidance you can use immediately. It’s about resilience, dignity, and healing—one meal at a time.

Frank R. Harrison opens Frank About Health by reframing the episode “Joey’s Kitchen for Healing and Care” into a nutrition-centered discussion while Joey recovers from a cold, using clips of Joey’s caregiving and meal prep work as a foundation for learning. He connects real-world caregiving stress to “food noise,” emotional eating, and obesity as a mental/neurological challenge—not just a nutrition issue—while emphasizing this is informational support, not medical advice. The segment also tees up an evidence-inspired conversation on the explosive rise of GLP-1 medications (Ozempic/Wegovy/Mounjaro/Zepbound), exploring their expanding potential beyond diabetes toward broader cardiometabolic and brain-health outcomes, alongside practical nutrition strategies for healing and resilience.
Frank welcomes caregiver-chef Jose Dennis and frames the kitchen as a “laboratory” for therapeutic nutrition—supporting Frank’s father through cancer care side effects like dementia, anemia, dehydration, and weight loss—while also helping the household manage stress-related eating. Jose describes researching how specific vegetables and ingredients can support brain function and iron levels, then turning that knowledge into meals the patient will actually enjoy (including the salad that prompted “seconds and thirds”), which becomes a practical win for both nourishment and morale. The conversation also highlights the broader caregiver reality—budget constraints (hello, Costco), burnout risk, and the need for hydration/sleep/supplements—plus the team’s use of a nutritionist and AI-assisted menu/budget planning, setting up a later segment on GLP-1 medications.
In this segment, Frank spotlights Joey’s “food as medicine” approach by showcasing targeted recipes—like an iron-rich quinoa-and-meatball dish for anemia and an almond-encrusted salmon with broccoli designed to support brain health—framing weight management as a life-saving tool tied to specific conditions (cancer support, diabetes prevention, and more). Jose then brings it home with a real-time caregiver perspective, sharing how stress, tasting/“picking” meals, and burnout contributed to weight gain and ultimately sleep apnea—leading to fatigue, dozing off during the day, and the need for evaluation, CPAP support, and potential medical options. The conversation sets up the episode’s key clinical crossover: how nutritious cooking can still unintentionally create obesity-related comorbidities, and why some patients may need both lifestyle-centered nutrition care and GLP-1 therapies (like the Zepbound discussion) as part of a comprehensive treatment strategy.
This final segment pivots from “food as medicine” to obesity as a biological, brain-driven disease, using a clip from The View to explain how GLP-1 medications may “recalibrate” the brain’s weight set point/“enough point” in today’s ultra-processed, high-stress environment—making weight loss less about willpower and more about treating underlying physiology. Frank then connects that framework back to caregiving: the kitchen can be a clinical tool for supporting dementia, anemia, cancer side effects, and caregiver burnout, but chronic stress and “food noise” can push caregivers into weight gain, sleep apnea, and other comorbidities that may require medical support alongside nutrition. He closes by urging a balanced, whole-person approach—high-quality therapeutic meals plus appropriate medications (Ozempic/Wegovy/Mounjaro/Zepbound), with discussion of emerging research on cardiometabolic and potential neuroprotective benefits—while advocating for broader insurance access, promoting additional resources, and teasing the next season’s focus on invisible illnesses.
00:01:09.690 --> 00:01:17.920 Frank R. Harrison: Hey everybody, and welcome to a new episode of Frank About Health. Today's episode is called Joey's Kitchen for Healing and Care.
00:01:18.060 --> 00:01:25.150 Frank R. Harrison: Ironically, he unfortunately caught a cold. So, we're gonna change the episode a bit.
00:01:25.320 --> 00:01:32.250 Frank R. Harrison: Joey will be joining us starting in Segment 2. However, I'm basically going to focus on…
00:01:32.720 --> 00:01:39.079 Frank R. Harrison: Healing, through nutrition, and even through something that is definitely taking up the nation by storm.
00:01:41.780 --> 00:01:44.340 Frank R. Harrison: So, in order to offset
00:01:44.540 --> 00:01:54.770 Frank R. Harrison: the absence of Joey from being in the beginning of the show due to his cold, and therefore not preparing a meal that would otherwise contain contagions.
00:01:55.030 --> 00:01:59.149 Frank R. Harrison: We're just gonna basically reflect on what he has done on the show.
00:01:59.250 --> 00:02:17.930 Frank R. Harrison: Both, for Frank About Health and for, one of our shows, The Expansion Room, where we showed him at work, because he's been my father's caregiver, nutrition PCA for the past year and a half, and overall, we've learned a lot, which we will discuss in detail.
00:02:18.140 --> 00:02:31.860 Frank R. Harrison: But, therefore, I'm reformatting the show, it's still called Joey's Kitchen for Healing and Care, but we're just gonna have an informative, nutrition-based discussion with some clips of his work.
00:02:32.090 --> 00:02:37.600 Frank R. Harrison: As well as other aspects of overall nutrition care that everyone should be aware of.
00:02:37.930 --> 00:02:44.590 Frank R. Harrison: For anyone who is looking at this episode for medical guidance, I have to issue a disclaimer.
00:02:44.710 --> 00:03:02.100 Frank R. Harrison: I am not a nutritionist, I am not a mental health professional, and I am not an MD. Therefore, the information you hear about is literally food for thought, not to be taken any seriously, meaning not to dissuade you from your ongoing care that you might already be having.
00:03:02.210 --> 00:03:17.959 Frank R. Harrison: from your PCP or other professional, medical professional. I'm also not expressing the views of TalkRadio.nyc or of Frank AboutHealth, but I am expressing the views that I have read in this book.
00:03:18.190 --> 00:03:25.529 Frank R. Harrison: Food for Health and Healing, which I will promote during one of the commercial breaks, so that you can get the book yourself on Amazon.
00:03:25.670 --> 00:03:38.630 Frank R. Harrison: But more importantly, we're gonna spend the hour reflecting on what Jose Dennis has done for my father over the past year, reflecting on a scene from The View, which will close out the show.
00:03:39.410 --> 00:03:46.390 Frank R. Harrison: And reflecting in general about what it's been like, dealing with all the ongoing stress
00:03:46.500 --> 00:03:57.840 Frank R. Harrison: of not only reporting each week on Frank About Health, about the healthcare issue of the day, but also maintaining my own stress levels, which are ongoing when it comes to financial issues, caregiving issues.
00:03:57.890 --> 00:04:07.329 Frank R. Harrison: the issues of the big, beautiful bill, which I'm already seeing the effects of. Can't wait to do my taxes so I can see the big refund I'm supposedly going to get.
00:04:07.390 --> 00:04:18.179 Frank R. Harrison: But, that all being said, I'm just wanting to continue to do my best to advocate for everyone's mental health, and in this particular episode's case, nutritional health.
00:04:19.019 --> 00:04:21.489 Frank R. Harrison: So let me give you an overview in general.
00:04:21.620 --> 00:04:26.170 Frank R. Harrison: Most people think that when they're eating, it's because they're hungry.
00:04:26.330 --> 00:04:33.450 Frank R. Harrison: Well, in today's climate, Social, economic, political climate, we're always hungry.
00:04:33.610 --> 00:04:37.120 Frank R. Harrison: Because it is our need to relieve stress.
00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:45.069 Frank R. Harrison: We might find ourselves having 3 meals a day, N are5… Additional snacks throughout the day.
00:04:45.210 --> 00:04:54.430 Frank R. Harrison: All stemming from candy, and ice cream, and potato chips, and cookies, and just food to binge on, especially when you
00:04:54.570 --> 00:04:56.060 Frank R. Harrison: Don't know how else.
00:04:56.210 --> 00:05:03.339 Frank R. Harrison: to let go of the stress that you contain with. I always try to do my electrolyte water. When I feel hydrated.
00:05:03.530 --> 00:05:11.480 Frank R. Harrison: my appetite is sedated. It doesn't need all the excess food that, trust me, I had been binging on throughout the year.
00:05:11.770 --> 00:05:20.090 Frank R. Harrison: Simultaneously, what I've learned, even throughout the process with my own nutritionist, is that Eating
00:05:20.550 --> 00:05:24.300 Frank R. Harrison: Or the subsequent obesity for those that suffer from it.
00:05:24.530 --> 00:05:27.989 Frank R. Harrison: It is really a mental health disorder.
00:05:28.210 --> 00:05:31.400 Frank R. Harrison: Not a nutrition disorder.
00:05:31.560 --> 00:05:35.130 Frank R. Harrison: People always have what they call food noise.
00:05:35.220 --> 00:05:53.990 Frank R. Harrison: If you're an individual that is always concerned what you had for breakfast, what you're gonna have for lunch, whether or not you should have that piece of cake that you know is sitting in the refrigerator that is really meant for your spouse, or your children, or whomever, and then not to mention, if you're going into holidays, like Thanksgiving and Christmas.
00:05:54.190 --> 00:05:57.580 Frank R. Harrison: You can't be questioning what you're gonna be making when it's still August.
00:05:57.830 --> 00:06:03.579 Frank R. Harrison: Alright? Therefore, that tells me that the act of eating
00:06:03.700 --> 00:06:10.979 Frank R. Harrison: that leads to obesity is more mental and neurological, so we're gonna address that on today's show as well.
00:06:11.950 --> 00:06:22.620 Frank R. Harrison: I can tell you that it has been a challenging year, in particular, with a lot of stress related to my father and my mother's healthcare, and…
00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:39.020 Frank R. Harrison: I found myself eating at inappropriate times, like 2 in the morning, for example, or possibly, going through my Uber Eats app and doing what I can to find an emergency snack when it wasn't an emergency, it was just me craving relief from the ongoing stress.
00:06:39.390 --> 00:06:41.769 Frank R. Harrison: when I'm dealing with my father.
00:06:41.980 --> 00:06:50.329 Frank R. Harrison: going off his medications, and whether or not he's eligible for CyberKnife treatment, and I, as the healthcare proxy, have to make the decisions on his behalf?
00:06:51.850 --> 00:07:00.880 Frank R. Harrison: I see a pizzeria, and I want to go and indulge. Alright? When I had to take my cousin on a nursing home visit that became permanent.
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:06.470 Frank R. Harrison: I think I had an entire turkey dinner when I got home from the, placing her there.
00:07:06.770 --> 00:07:10.559 Frank R. Harrison: And then everyone knows when I lost Aretha Gray last year.
00:07:10.820 --> 00:07:20.950 Frank R. Harrison: I was doing a lot of eating, but I was also doing a lot of meditating and praying and preparing for her Celebration of Life service, which happened a year ago next month.
00:07:21.420 --> 00:07:22.180 Frank R. Harrison: But…
00:07:22.660 --> 00:07:33.009 Frank R. Harrison: That was my response, which I've learned to overcome with counseling, nutrition value, and you will hear throughout the rest of the show about how
00:07:33.400 --> 00:07:39.729 Frank R. Harrison: Joey has been able to really, by virtue of taking care of my father's nutritional needs.
00:07:39.870 --> 00:07:52.089 Frank R. Harrison: For the side effects of cancer treatment, including dementia and anemia and other kinds of issues, I've actually mirrored some of those meals from my own nutritional benefit to reduce the risks
00:07:52.140 --> 00:08:00.890 Frank R. Harrison: of cardio illness, or high cholesterol, or even being pre-diabetic, which I think I was headed towards at one point.
00:08:01.660 --> 00:08:07.030 Frank R. Harrison: Overall, Nutrition is an enigma for most people.
00:08:07.130 --> 00:08:14.159 Frank R. Harrison: You know, you've got a population here in the United States of America, over 50%. I think it's even higher now, especially after COVID.
00:08:14.320 --> 00:08:15.100 Frank R. Harrison: But…
00:08:15.400 --> 00:08:26.179 Frank R. Harrison: When I've seen the trend with the GLP-1 drugs over the past year and a half, I've heard Manjaro, Wegovy, Ozempic, there's a new one called Zepbound.
00:08:26.380 --> 00:08:37.359 Frank R. Harrison: they're basically semaglutide medicines, and I know when Marshall Runji was here 6 months ago, he had talked about the potential that it has, not only
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:46.829 Frank R. Harrison: To deal with diabetes, which is what it was predominantly prescribed for, but also cardiac problems, and even minimizing or reducing the risks
00:08:46.920 --> 00:09:00.139 Frank R. Harrison: of Alzheimer's and dementia, which to me, was like, wow, this is genius, but now I find it all-encompassing that GLP-1 drugs, again, which we will talk about later on in the show.
00:09:00.950 --> 00:09:05.910 Frank R. Harrison: Are basically those drugs that can also subsequently…
00:09:06.300 --> 00:09:17.959 Frank R. Harrison: heal other illnesses as a byproduct. That's a side effect I'm sure willing to consider. Alright, I think we're almost headed for our first break, but before we do, I'm going to show you one segment
00:09:18.040 --> 00:09:35.860 Frank R. Harrison: of, Joey's first appearance on Frank About Health back in July, I believe it was, and then we're gonna go to a commercial break. So, bear with me while I do that, and then once this video is over, Samantha, feel free to take us out to commercial.
00:09:55.870 --> 00:09:58.199 Frank R. Harrison: Has a slight dementia.
00:09:58.420 --> 00:10:02.830 Frank R. Harrison: And… We are gonna prepare today is silent for him.
00:10:03.070 --> 00:10:06.740 Frank R. Harrison: That will benefit… green.
00:10:07.060 --> 00:10:13.950 Frank R. Harrison: And… We're gonna start with… Carpanzo Beach.
00:10:14.520 --> 00:10:22.870 Frank R. Harrison: As you see here… They are rich in nutrients, like folate, iron, And magnesium and zinc.
00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:32.839 Frank R. Harrison: Folate aids in brain development and cognitive function. Magnesium supports nerve… Then we have the tomatoes.
00:10:32.990 --> 00:10:44.850 Frank R. Harrison: Which are packed with lycopene, Antioxidant that protects brain cells from damage, reduces inflammation, It enhances communication between neurons.
00:10:44.950 --> 00:10:49.519 Frank R. Harrison: Potentially, Improving memory, learning, and mood.
00:10:50.820 --> 00:10:53.990 Frank R. Harrison: Then we have… the cucumber.
00:10:55.360 --> 00:11:06.670 Frank R. Harrison: Which… It's high on water content, helping with hydration, which Overall health and brain Then we have our onions.
00:11:08.390 --> 00:11:12.680 Frank R. Harrison: which contain… Flavonoids, which are plant…
00:11:13.950 --> 00:11:18.070 Frank R. Harrison: That can improve blood flow to the brain, potentially
00:11:18.450 --> 00:11:23.449 Frank R. Harrison: student focus and concentration, and may lower the risk of Alzheimer's disease.
00:11:25.020 --> 00:11:27.340 Frank R. Harrison: Then we have our cilantro.
00:11:29.430 --> 00:11:40.440 Frank R. Harrison: Which contains antioxidants and flavonoids that may reduce brain inflammation, improve memory, ease.
00:11:40.660 --> 00:11:42.590 Frank R. Harrison: Anxiety symptoms.
00:11:45.200 --> 00:11:48.189 Frank R. Harrison: And with that, we have garlic for flavor.
00:11:48.760 --> 00:11:50.049 Frank R. Harrison: We have oregano.
00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:52.180 Frank R. Harrison: Fault?
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:53.490 Frank R. Harrison: Hot?

00:13:40.810 --> 00:13:46.040 Frank R. Harrison: And combined… Seasoning, the oil seasoning.
00:13:48.170 --> 00:13:49.259 Frank R. Harrison: Through the rest of the day

00:14:24.790 --> 00:14:26.800 Frank R. Harrison: Garlic cloves, and I diced them.
00:14:27.030 --> 00:14:28.129 Frank R. Harrison: I'll find…
00:15:24.050 --> 00:15:25.310 Frank R. Harrison: About a half teaspoon.
00:15:36.760 --> 00:15:40.860 Frank R. Harrison: Or if you… Whatever.
00:15:51.140 --> 00:15:51.980 Frank R. Harrison: Follow me.
00:16:40.340 --> 00:16:50.749 Frank R. Harrison: Okay, so we're not gonna try any right now. That basically is the preamble to the next section of the show, when I introduce Jose.
00:16:50.880 --> 00:16:57.580 Frank R. Harrison: And he and I will have a conversation about that entire recipe and how it impacted my father.
00:16:57.770 --> 00:17:07.260 Frank R. Harrison: And so, Samantha, we're ready for a commercial break, and we'll be back in a few, right here on talkradio.nyc, and on our social media. See you soon.
00:18:19.230 --> 00:18:22.070 Frank R. Harrison: Hey everybody, and welcome back. So here we have it.
00:18:22.450 --> 00:18:28.319 Frank R. Harrison: Jose Dennis, who's joining us right now, segment 2 of this episode of Frank About Health.
00:18:28.560 --> 00:18:30.109 Frank R. Harrison: And I guess, if anything.
00:18:30.550 --> 00:18:35.610 Frank R. Harrison: Let's just talk during the next segment, next 13 minutes, about what it is like
00:18:36.060 --> 00:18:43.600 Frank R. Harrison: What it has been like for you to be using that kitchen as kind of a laboratory for my father's dementia.
00:18:43.840 --> 00:18:50.000 Frank R. Harrison: Cancer care, As well as all other side effects. Anemia, recently diagnosed.
00:18:50.420 --> 00:18:56.320 Frank R. Harrison: Can you just share with the audience and listeners That entire experience.
00:18:57.140 --> 00:19:05.779 Frank R. Harrison: Well, it's been a learning experience, because I learned what each vegetable How each vegetable helps.
00:19:05.970 --> 00:19:10.690 Frank R. Harrison: With nutrition, and how it helps with the brain function, and…
00:19:10.900 --> 00:19:14.199 Frank R. Harrison: other aspects of the body. And,
00:19:14.920 --> 00:19:31.020 Frank R. Harrison: putting that salad together, I remember, was really delicious. After I made it, I set it aside for about 4 hours until your parents were ready to eat. And, your father loved it, which was good, so he's always happy when I cook.
00:19:31.040 --> 00:19:36.739 Frank R. Harrison: Yes. Always asking me when I'm gonna make my own restaurant.
00:19:37.030 --> 00:19:44.500 Frank R. Harrison: But it was a joy just to see him enjoy his food, because sometimes… Other things that he…
00:19:44.610 --> 00:19:47.259 Frank R. Harrison: It's presented with he doesn't enjoy too much.
00:19:47.410 --> 00:19:50.089 Frank R. Harrison: Yes. So,
00:19:50.220 --> 00:19:56.530 Frank R. Harrison: It's good to see him eat. When you were observing that, prior to you actually focusing on his nutrition.
00:19:56.680 --> 00:20:10.090 Frank R. Harrison: He basically wasn't eating. He wasn't hydrating. He was not doing anything. No. Even the meals that he was used to having, whether it was ordered out, or whether my mother made it, or whether, it was just a sandwich, or whatever, he would just not touch it.
00:20:10.360 --> 00:20:22.139 Frank R. Harrison: And there was just something in the way you prepared it. Now, I know that everybody knew that you were already having been trained previously in another life of yours to be an actual professional chef.
00:20:22.340 --> 00:20:34.179 Frank R. Harrison: to cross over and use it under medical purposes now, that was nothing you've ever expected. No. It was by default. But did you find that your passion for cooking was now…
00:20:34.220 --> 00:20:43.940 Frank R. Harrison: gave you a sense more of pride, because you were also acting like the food doctor? What would you qualify yourself as in order to really get the commitment from my father?
00:20:44.690 --> 00:20:48.319 Frank R. Harrison: Well, because you were the first to make him have seconds and thirds.
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:55.460 Frank R. Harrison: Justice, I guess it's, tapping into the field of a nutritionist.
00:20:56.010 --> 00:20:59.869 Frank R. Harrison: And doing your investigations and your research…
00:21:00.030 --> 00:21:16.070 Frank R. Harrison: on how different ingredients you could put together to make it tasteful and healthy for your bodies and stuff. So, that's, one aspect that I've enjoyed learning. And,
00:21:16.150 --> 00:21:27.180 Frank R. Harrison: just putting the different dishes together for your father, and just to see him smile, is what I like, and joke around after he's eating and stuff like that, and…
00:21:27.190 --> 00:21:39.780 Frank R. Harrison: That brings joy to me. It's really nice to see him like that. So it's part of your personality to begin with, so it was an easy fit when you were actually needed to use those skills, your cooking expertise.
00:21:39.790 --> 00:21:47.969 Frank R. Harrison: for medical purposes, plus you were also getting paid for it. I mean, trust me, I do respect the fact that you were getting paid for your talent.
00:21:48.030 --> 00:22:02.739 Frank R. Harrison: you know, that was one aspect, because I know the food business must be completely crazy to begin with for anyone who just wants to be a chef, but when you're actually being supported by the government to help pay for a patient's food needs.
00:22:02.810 --> 00:22:05.680 Frank R. Harrison: I mean, you were then, therefore, exploring
00:22:05.800 --> 00:22:25.080 Frank R. Harrison: cardiac issues and anemia issues, immunology, I mean, hell, during COVID, we also had to figure out the right foods to eat that were not at all, considered contagious or affected with the virus and stuff like that, and you were around during that time as well. Well, we had to…
00:22:25.140 --> 00:22:44.379 Frank R. Harrison: order our stuff online and have it delivered, because you couldn't go out. Exactly, couldn't… you couldn't do it, and half the… half the stuff was out of stock, because, you know, it wasn't being brought correctly into the… into the different stores and stuff like that. But then you and I discovered Costco.
00:22:44.420 --> 00:22:53.199 Frank R. Harrison: Costco was also becoming very necessary, especially during my father's healthcare crisis, because budgets were being eroded pretty quickly.
00:22:53.630 --> 00:23:12.349 Frank R. Harrison: And so, now it was an issue where when you were, clocking in, as they say, we would have to actually dedicate time on a Saturday or Sunday to go and look at menus, and we worked with a nutritionist, Rochelle Sirota, by the way, in case you need one.
00:23:12.560 --> 00:23:21.310 Frank R. Harrison: She accepts Aetna, and she also accepts Medicare, but under specific diagnoses. That all being said, diabetes being one of them.
00:23:21.510 --> 00:23:23.800 Frank R. Harrison: But the thing is, is that…
00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:39.650 Frank R. Harrison: you and I, especially in the caregiving role of trying to go ahead and advocate for my father, a cancer patient, who's now showing signs of a dementia patient, of a person who's losing significant amount of weight, remains dehydrated.
00:23:40.670 --> 00:23:55.120 Frank R. Harrison: really by his own choosing, because he's told constantly, take 60 ounces of water a day, and he said, oh, I took 10 ounces yesterday. Yes, and so… Doesn't matter. You know, but the point is, is that I then needed your guidance
00:23:55.120 --> 00:24:09.170 Frank R. Harrison: to make sure I wasn't overeating, which I was, or that I would be eating the right foods to prevent my burnout, which was also accruing. So you found yourself, is it safe to say, you found yourself becoming everyone's caregiver in the environment.
00:24:09.260 --> 00:24:10.700 Frank R. Harrison: When it came to nutrition.
00:24:10.950 --> 00:24:12.599 Frank R. Harrison: You could say that, yes.
00:24:13.020 --> 00:24:24.439 Frank R. Harrison: Okay. In this household, yes. So, as a result of that, what would you say are your most predominant recipes that come to mind because of you being in the role of caregiver? Well, I've…
00:24:25.310 --> 00:24:29.900 Frank R. Harrison: I have gone to use the quinoa grain.
00:24:30.070 --> 00:24:36.860 Frank R. Harrison: and make a Hispanic dish out of it, using my… Hispanic, you know…
00:24:37.150 --> 00:24:47.699 Frank R. Harrison: seasonings from Puerto Rico, and, sasong, and the chickpeas that I like to use, and just mixing it in together, and just creating.
00:24:48.400 --> 00:25:01.990 Frank R. Harrison: You know, one of the side effects, though, of all of his creations is that he and I both gained weight because the food was so good. But, whether it's in the case of my father trying to help keep and contain
00:25:01.990 --> 00:25:09.329 Frank R. Harrison: The dementia from progressing, or to increase his blood levels so that he doesn't have as much iron-poor blood.
00:25:09.360 --> 00:25:12.219 Frank R. Harrison: Through the anemia that he was finding.
00:25:12.340 --> 00:25:22.649 Frank R. Harrison: Then there are those who are eating to escape the burnout. So then, oh, you gotta prevent potential diabetes, potential cardiac. Or, as you will learn later on in the show.
00:25:22.850 --> 00:25:33.580 Frank R. Harrison: Sleep apnea, or other kinds of blockages that occur because of weight gain, which wasn't the intention, but became a byproduct of coming up with the best foods
00:25:33.750 --> 00:25:36.289 Frank R. Harrison: For a patient that was in need of care.
00:25:36.730 --> 00:25:52.619 Frank R. Harrison: Basically, I don't know if we're set for another break, but what I can say is that I've hoped that we have been able to create a sense of what life has been like for Jose Dennis to be in this home.
00:25:52.760 --> 00:25:57.779 Frank R. Harrison: Doing patient caregiving With his biggest talent, cooking.
00:25:58.150 --> 00:26:14.720 Frank R. Harrison: Now, you would think it's, like, the best of both worlds, but no, there are many, many trade-offs, especially when you're also trying to manage your own life with your own family and your other job that's waiting for you. So I can only imagine how the burnout
00:26:14.900 --> 00:26:20.660 Frank R. Harrison: Which is primarily with all caregivers, whether they're your family members or whether they're not.
00:26:20.960 --> 00:26:31.909 Frank R. Harrison: You have to put the correlation that burnout and food do go hand in hand. Too much of it may deaden the burnout, but will increase other comorbidities.
00:26:32.080 --> 00:26:38.369 Frank R. Harrison: Too little of it may reduce the rate, but if you're already burnt out to begin with, you might collapse.
00:26:38.480 --> 00:26:47.589 Frank R. Harrison: So, there's a lot of hydration, and sleep, and vitamin supplements that need to be involved for caregivers, while in the patient's case.
00:26:47.790 --> 00:26:56.289 Frank R. Harrison: First target what their main ailment is, and target the food menus that will help maintain their quality of life.
00:26:57.130 --> 00:26:59.639 Frank R. Harrison: While living with those particular ailments.
00:27:00.300 --> 00:27:04.070 Frank R. Harrison: You know, do you have any other thoughts before we go to our second break?
00:27:04.410 --> 00:27:09.020 Frank R. Harrison: Just that, that's what I… was researching.
00:27:09.160 --> 00:27:21.099 Frank R. Harrison: through the different vegetables and stuff, what can I put together that will help your father's dementia? Yes. And stuff. And also, he was,
00:27:21.250 --> 00:27:23.109 Frank R. Harrison: Had an issue with his iron.
00:27:23.330 --> 00:27:42.640 Frank R. Harrison: So I also did research with that, and I think you have a recipe that you would show later on… Yes. Why did I create it. Correct. And also, we used artificial intelligence, and it provided us with all the menus, as well as all the budgets that we had to consider when we went and did our Costco runs every week.
00:27:42.900 --> 00:27:54.050 Frank R. Harrison: Alright, I haven't gotten any alert as to if there is a break, but I'm gonna assume that there is one, so please stay tuned as we are here with Jose Dennis.
00:27:54.110 --> 00:28:11.569 Frank R. Harrison: as we are talking about nutrition and caregiving, using the kitchen as his laboratory of sorts, as a caregiver, and we will then continue as we talk about some of his other recipes, and like I promised you, the final segment will focus on the GLP-1 drugs.
00:28:11.700 --> 00:28:13.160 Frank R. Harrison: Alright, we'll be back in a few.
00:28:57.180 --> 00:28:59.270 Frank R. Harrison: Joey Kitchen, as we are now showing
00:29:13.160 --> 00:29:14.240 Frank R. Harrison: Went ahead.
00:29:15.380 --> 00:29:16.290 Frank R. Harrison: 1A.
00:29:17.340 --> 00:29:25.160 Frank R. Harrison: with… my onions, peppers, and I also added a little celery flavor.
00:29:25.610 --> 00:29:29.160 Frank R. Harrison: And in here… The mortar I crushed.
00:29:29.500 --> 00:29:30.340 Frank R. Harrison: Garlic.
00:29:31.290 --> 00:29:33.770 Frank R. Harrison: Oregano.
00:29:34.440 --> 00:29:37.900 Frank R. Harrison: And, cumin, Somewhere.
00:29:38.850 --> 00:29:40.299 Frank R. Harrison: that I added to that.
00:29:41.490 --> 00:29:45.850 Frank R. Harrison: White distilled vinegar.
00:29:46.200 --> 00:29:47.159 Frank R. Harrison: my olive oil.
00:29:48.820 --> 00:29:50.419 Frank R. Harrison: in it, which I won't mix.
00:29:51.110 --> 00:29:52.079 Frank R. Harrison: Into the meat.
00:29:52.190 --> 00:29:55.170 Frank R. Harrison: Make my little meatballs, which will go through here.
00:29:56.980 --> 00:30:00.020 Frank R. Harrison: this pot here… I'm prepared.
00:30:00.890 --> 00:30:01.860 Frank R. Harrison: quinoa.
00:30:03.200 --> 00:30:06.460 Frank R. Harrison: And on the side, I will… Cut up.
00:30:31.640 --> 00:30:40.220 Frank R. Harrison: Okay, I… Okay, so what is the point of the iron-rich ingredients that you want to mix together? This is to build…
00:30:42.780 --> 00:30:43.690 Frank R. Harrison: God.
00:30:45.210 --> 00:30:49.129 Frank R. Harrison: Okay, sorry for the technical difficulties.
00:30:49.280 --> 00:30:53.860 Frank R. Harrison: But I did realize that, in order for everyone to hear what
00:30:54.120 --> 00:30:59.029 Frank R. Harrison: Joey was saying I had to activate the sound quality while the
00:30:59.350 --> 00:31:03.879 Frank R. Harrison: While the video was flipped. So, sorry for those of you who did not hear it.
00:31:13.620 --> 00:31:24.579 Frank R. Harrison: the, the different recipes. Tell the viewers what recipes are on that channel that you've made for Frank About Health in the expansion room. Well,
00:31:24.970 --> 00:31:30.799 Frank R. Harrison: In your show, I had done the Mediterranean salad that we saw earlier,
00:31:31.050 --> 00:31:38.830 Frank R. Harrison: This iron, enriched salad was done for… Your friend's, show.
00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:51.079 Frank R. Harrison: The expansion room. The expansion room. And, it was the meatballs that I made with the quinoa, and, I also made a,
00:31:51.350 --> 00:32:00.379 Frank R. Harrison: Crushed, almond, almond-encrusted salmon. Almond-encrusted salmon. Yes. With broccoli.
00:32:00.590 --> 00:32:14.299 Frank R. Harrison: Yes. Which was delicious. Okay, and each of those had a purpose. The almond-encrusted salmon was definitely for, the mind. Right. And the quinoa bowl was also for…
00:32:14.580 --> 00:32:21.179 Frank R. Harrison: the same thing, or was the anemia? No, that was for the anemia and the meatballs. That was for the iron-rich.
00:32:21.380 --> 00:32:22.310 Frank R. Harrison: Okay.
00:32:22.640 --> 00:32:30.319 Frank R. Harrison: Alright, everybody, so overall, I think what you have discovered in the first
00:32:30.900 --> 00:32:36.570 Frank R. Harrison: Two segments of the show is that weight loss is basically
00:32:37.650 --> 00:32:49.819 Frank R. Harrison: means to save your life, depending upon what different illnesses that you are carrying. In my father's case, it's cancer. For my case, it was prevention of diabetes.
00:32:50.030 --> 00:33:02.469 Frank R. Harrison: For Jose, I would like him right now to share with you a recent illness that he has. I wouldn't call it an illness, it's a sleep disorder, but it is now affecting him and making him eligible
00:33:02.520 --> 00:33:17.360 Frank R. Harrison: Well, he has to lose significant amounts of weight to stop the sleep disorder, but it'll also make him eligible to deal with any other side effects that he's currently faced with, including prediabetes and whatever. So, why don't you share your story with sleep apnea?
00:33:18.200 --> 00:33:22.339 Frank R. Harrison: Well, yes, I… I…
00:33:22.870 --> 00:33:29.760 Frank R. Harrison: I have a condition, sleep apnea, and it's because of the weight that I have gained that I need to lose, and
00:33:29.980 --> 00:33:35.230 Frank R. Harrison: At night, I just don't sleep comfortably at all. I'm constantly awake.
00:33:35.670 --> 00:33:37.190 Frank R. Harrison: Or,
00:33:37.470 --> 00:33:49.050 Frank R. Harrison: I may think that I had slept the whole night through, but I'm exhausted during the day. And when I'm dragging myself to work and stuff, and having to do things, sometimes I doze off.
00:33:49.920 --> 00:33:52.420 Frank R. Harrison: I'm in front of a computer, which is bad.
00:33:52.800 --> 00:34:03.550 Frank R. Harrison: You mean you're literally dozing off in school? Sometimes. It happened to me, like, twice. Wow. So, it's a bad situation, so,
00:34:04.620 --> 00:34:16.090 Frank R. Harrison: I spoke to, a person that was taking over for Dr. Miranda in, NYU Langong. NYU Langong.
00:34:16.330 --> 00:34:22.769 Frank R. Harrison: As she spoke about, that, yes, what am I to sleep?
00:34:23.000 --> 00:34:27.040 Frank R. Harrison: test showed that with the CPAP, I slept
00:34:27.150 --> 00:34:35.609 Frank R. Harrison: better through the night than without it. And she also spoke about this new medicine called Zepbal, that…
00:34:35.980 --> 00:34:41.080 Frank R. Harrison: when I see Dr. Miranda in February, I guess we'll have a discussion about…
00:34:41.409 --> 00:34:49.769 Frank R. Harrison: Very interesting. I mean, now, the funny part is, we're not even talking about food as medicine. We're literally
00:34:49.929 --> 00:34:54.590 Frank R. Harrison: Just talking about I guess…
00:34:54.790 --> 00:35:05.899 Frank R. Harrison: the aspect of, still, weight loss. Yes. So, exploring this in real time with all of you out there, we're actually talking about obesity.
00:35:06.220 --> 00:35:08.850 Frank R. Harrison: being another illness. Yes.
00:35:09.220 --> 00:35:21.000 Frank R. Harrison: And so, while you are already an excellent cook, and doing what you can as a caregiver, especially for my father, and subsequently for me and my mother, by virtue of going through our own
00:35:21.620 --> 00:35:23.890 Frank R. Harrison: Reactions to what has been going on.
00:35:24.070 --> 00:35:39.940 Frank R. Harrison: Would you say that part of your weight gain was based on eating your iron-rich foods and your… and your food to help prevention of dementia, or minimize dementia? Would you say that you really got… that you used the laboratory as your… as your place to pick?
00:35:39.950 --> 00:35:49.609 Frank R. Harrison: At the same time? Yes. Okay, I mean, I don't believe… I think most chefs do that, especially if they're in restaurants and stuff like that, but subsequently.
00:35:49.640 --> 00:35:52.259 Frank R. Harrison: You were going through burnout as well.
00:35:52.440 --> 00:35:54.240 Frank R. Harrison: And your way of coping
00:35:54.690 --> 00:36:07.059 Frank R. Harrison: Was by probably eating more, and ultimately gaining more weight that would lead to the apnea, and now the sleep deprivation and the fatigue and everything else that you've been describing
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:12.480 Frank R. Harrison: Which… Made you eligible to continue doing the cooking.
00:36:12.640 --> 00:36:15.130 Frank R. Harrison: And being mindful of the nutritious foods.
00:36:15.320 --> 00:36:19.499 Frank R. Harrison: But now looking into CPAP machine to sleep better.
00:36:19.800 --> 00:36:30.940 Frank R. Harrison: and at the same time, start doing what a lot of people have been advised not to. It's also not cost-effective in most cases, because insurance won't cover it, but
00:36:31.170 --> 00:36:37.469 Frank R. Harrison: after I show everybody in the beginning of the fourth segment what we saw yesterday on The View.
00:36:37.680 --> 00:36:50.329 Frank R. Harrison: I'm even considering it now. But I do still agree, and I'm not saying to stay away from Joey's recipes, or not be focused on using food for your healing.
00:36:50.510 --> 00:37:08.099 Frank R. Harrison: But, if it subsequently helps with your illnesses and creates obesity as a new comorbidity, then we need to visit the GLP-1 drugs simultaneously with the right foods to eat. So, I can see we're about to take our final break.
00:37:08.600 --> 00:37:10.070 Frank R. Harrison: And when we return.
00:37:10.190 --> 00:37:15.130 Frank R. Harrison: We will go ahead and show you the scene from the view, and have an entire
00:37:15.290 --> 00:37:24.659 Frank R. Harrison: discussion on the GLP-1 drugs. So please stay tuned right here on Frank AboutHealth on talkradio.nyc, and on our social media. We'll be back in a few.
00:38:34.770 --> 00:38:44.220 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: My regret for it is because I was so ill-informed. You know, and Maya Angelou always said, when you know better, you do better. I now know better, and so…
00:38:44.420 --> 00:38:53.180 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: That's why I've written enough to help people, or co-written with Dr. Anya, to help people understand, if you're still trying to do it through willpower.
00:38:53.180 --> 00:39:11.000 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: you're not gonna make it. Yeah. And Dr. Anya, there are millions of people now taking these GLP-1 obesity medications. Many of my friends and family are. You say they target something called their Our Enough point. Can you explain what that is and how they work? Yes, yes, and this gets at that biology that's so important.
00:39:11.000 --> 00:39:21.549 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: So our bodies are super smart. They are designed to survive. And so, in order to survive, they have to carry a certain amount of fuel, and they carry that fuel as fat.
00:39:21.750 --> 00:39:37.110 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: But how does our body know how much fuel or how much fat to carry? Well, our brain decides that. It sets a set point, or an enough point, where it thinks, oh, now I have enough fuel, I have enough energy, I'm good, I'm gonna survive, I'm not gonna die, this is great.
00:39:37.620 --> 00:39:53.610 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: within our current obesogenic environment, an environment that is filled with ultra-processed food, lack of sleep, lack of physical activity, tons of stress, medicines that cause weight gain as a side effect, all these things push up the enough point. They push it up for many of us.
00:39:53.790 --> 00:40:02.400 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: So what do the medications do? Well, they work in the brain, and what we think they do is they recalibrate that enough point so that it is lower
00:40:02.570 --> 00:40:06.510 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: And so, basically, as a consequence of that, we lose weight.
00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:24.059 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: So they lower the enough point, and the weight follows, and that's exactly what happened with Oprah. You know, but some people can't lose weight on that drug. That is true. I know people… That is true. Does alcohol play a part in that? I notice if I have a glass of wine the night before, and I get on the scale, I'm a pound heavier than I was the day before.
00:40:24.370 --> 00:40:49.139 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: So, is that the alcohol? Which are you drinking, Joy? It's not the alcohol per se, although alcohol does have calories, but some people do not respond to the new medications, and there's a reason for that, and that's because there's not one type of obesity, there's many types of obesities, and the type of obesity that that person may have may not respond to that specific class of medication. So happens to be trying different ones? There are different
00:40:49.140 --> 00:41:11.939 Audio shared by Frank R. Harrison: medications that already exist, they've existed for a long time, they're just not quite as effective, but we use them together. We use them together to help people treat their obesity in those words. So drinking has nothing to do with it. And there's many medicines in development, many new classes of medicines in development, so the important thing is to keep going, to not give up. So here's what's gonna happen.
00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:22.989 Frank R. Harrison: Alright, this is multitasking at its best.
00:41:23.000 --> 00:41:35.570 Frank R. Harrison: But basically, the takeaway from this episode is not only to keep in mind of using the kitchen as your laboratory when taking care of your family or friends.
00:41:35.570 --> 00:41:47.250 Frank R. Harrison: or if you're a caregiver, like Joey is for my father, being able to look at food for its clinical basis as well, depending on the type of illness the patient is being treated for.
00:41:47.460 --> 00:42:00.300 Frank R. Harrison: But, when you yourself, the caregiver, or even I myself, begin to experience outgoing stress due to the caregiving burnout, and you start gaining weight, which leads to things like apnea.
00:42:00.780 --> 00:42:10.169 Frank R. Harrison: start looking at two dynamics here. One is, you might be suffering from what I gathered in that interview on The View with Oprah Winfrey.
00:42:10.300 --> 00:42:29.229 Frank R. Harrison: that obesity is a neurological, or in some ways, a mental illness. I don't mean like the traditional mental illnesses, like psychosis or schizophrenia neurosis, or depression even, but I'm referring to the food noise that only people who suffer from obesity
00:42:29.650 --> 00:42:33.690 Frank R. Harrison: are living with, and that is where the GLP-1 drugs
00:42:33.800 --> 00:42:44.529 Frank R. Harrison: transmit and reduce the level of that noise so that you no longer have the desire to eat to escape. Only eat when you need to. Alright, so there's that thing.
00:42:44.780 --> 00:43:02.240 Frank R. Harrison: That to consider, as well as maintaining a quality of life through the use of the high-quality foods that you need to have as much of an energetic and healthy lifestyle, while also dealing with those that really need the best nutrition support.
00:43:02.490 --> 00:43:08.509 Frank R. Harrison: So, another big takeaway is that obesity is an actual illness.
00:43:08.970 --> 00:43:18.629 Frank R. Harrison: Just the act of gaining weight and losing it and fluctuating or whatever, those are behavioral responses to that illness of obesity.
00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:21.149 Frank R. Harrison: Alright, overall…
00:43:21.270 --> 00:43:38.750 Frank R. Harrison: I have spent the last 45 minutes with you looking at the spectrum of what you've done on Frank About Health, and also the expansion room, and really approaching the types of foods to set for people who have mood disorders, or dementia, or anemia, or whatever.
00:43:39.540 --> 00:43:45.940 Frank R. Harrison: But it looks to me that nobody has ever, with all the diets that have been in the marketplace for over…
00:43:46.120 --> 00:43:54.480 Frank R. Harrison: as long as I've been alive, nobody has ever realized that In terms of nutrition, Nutrition…
00:43:54.710 --> 00:43:57.260 Frank R. Harrison: If you already have a good foundation.
00:43:57.530 --> 00:44:01.390 Frank R. Harrison: It's not something you really have to concern yourself with, except when you're ill.
00:44:01.580 --> 00:44:06.249 Frank R. Harrison: But the fact that we live in a society with too many processed foods.
00:44:06.420 --> 00:44:23.069 Frank R. Harrison: And I can always talk about, like, I've talked on my Voices of Disruption series, about all the high tariffs, and causing limitations on food stamps, and dealing with people not knowing where to get their food because the prices have risen, and then they're getting foods that aren't healthy, and whatever.
00:44:23.200 --> 00:44:26.179 Frank R. Harrison: It's actually reinforcing this…
00:44:26.300 --> 00:44:38.999 Frank R. Harrison: well, I wouldn't call it newly found illness of obesity, but something that's finally being pinpointed and represented so that a class of drugs, the GLP-1 drugs, can actually hopefully become eligible
00:44:39.000 --> 00:44:47.170 Frank R. Harrison: For funding through insurance programs, or other kinds of government support, so that we can also maintain our society's quality of life.
00:44:47.180 --> 00:44:51.489 Frank R. Harrison: So, ultimately, nutrition is not just about the food.
00:44:51.600 --> 00:45:10.500 Frank R. Harrison: It's about how you take the chemicals associated with the food and neutralize them with the appropriate medications. I would say, for those of you considering GLP-1 drugs, I tried showing a commercial here showing the top four. Ozempic, Wegovy, Manjaro, and Zephal.
00:45:10.550 --> 00:45:13.650 Frank R. Harrison: Which, basically, were introduced
00:45:13.930 --> 00:45:25.450 Frank R. Harrison: you know, the first two, Ozempic and… Ozempic and… well, not Wegovy, Ozempic and Manjaro were for originally diabetic patients.
00:45:25.630 --> 00:45:29.269 Frank R. Harrison: Wagovi was created as a subset of Ozempic.
00:45:29.450 --> 00:45:38.709 Frank R. Harrison: because of the semi-glutide, chemical to be purely for weight management, and now they have the pill out there. They call it the GLP-3.
00:45:39.030 --> 00:45:40.590 Frank R. Harrison: Simultaneously.
00:45:40.850 --> 00:45:51.879 Frank R. Harrison: Monjaro… I'm sorry, ZetBound was released into the marketplace about a year and a half ago, and it is targeted for those suffering from sleep apnea.
00:45:52.030 --> 00:45:59.440 Frank R. Harrison: And of course, it helps you lose weight the fastest, because even a 15% decline in weight stops the apnea.
00:45:59.710 --> 00:46:02.090 Frank R. Harrison: And then, neurologically.
00:46:02.300 --> 00:46:18.310 Frank R. Harrison: What has been researched, not yet tested or proven, is that they are saying the long-term effects of the GLP-1 drugs is that they improve cardiac health, and they even minimize Alzheimer's disease and dementia. They don't prevent it.
00:46:18.770 --> 00:46:25.699 Frank R. Harrison: But they reduce the protein that gets built up in the brain in those particular age groups.
00:46:25.940 --> 00:46:38.470 Frank R. Harrison: that have probably been already poisoned with too much tobacco or alcohol in the system, or whatever other genetic components may be at play, but the GLP-1 is a neurotransmitter.
00:46:38.470 --> 00:46:50.960 Frank R. Harrison: that is impacted when that injection, or pill, is put in the system. It suppresses the urge to eat, it suppresses the food noise, and it even creates additional neuroplasticity.
00:46:51.010 --> 00:46:57.379 Frank R. Harrison: These are other positive effects of these drugs. I literally am in the process of consulting with my doctor
00:46:58.200 --> 00:47:17.890 Frank R. Harrison: to start taking GLPs. Particularly, I'm probably gonna do the pill, because I do have epilepsy, and I continue to take pills for that, but that would be Wagovy for me. Meanwhile, we are, as Joey mentioned earlier, looking seriously at Zepbound, so that the CPAP machine will be one source of making sure he gets better sleep.
00:47:17.990 --> 00:47:19.580 Frank R. Harrison: But at the same time.
00:47:19.920 --> 00:47:27.410 Frank R. Harrison: To reduce the weight, stop the apnea, and then even have more energy and quality of life going forward.
00:47:27.840 --> 00:47:31.699 Frank R. Harrison: Well, so here we have almost completed the show.
00:47:31.880 --> 00:47:47.769 Frank R. Harrison: And I don't know, with all the technical difficulties, if it was a clear, thought-out process. I mean, again, him having a cold, which, if you're not getting enough sleep, and you're surrounded by sick children all the time, and we've had cold weather beyond belief.
00:47:48.610 --> 00:47:55.450 Frank R. Harrison: That's a result. But, it created a nice, round episode for us to talk about.
00:47:55.570 --> 00:48:08.920 Frank R. Harrison: Not just showing him in his kitchen doing his magic. Again, if you want to see the recipes that he has done on Frank About Health and that we showed a little bit tonight, go into YouTube, look under my Frank About Healthcare channel.
00:48:08.920 --> 00:48:18.900 Frank R. Harrison: And you will see all of those mini-videos, including a video of Aretha Gray on Good Morning America. I thought for those of you out there that want to pay tribute, she died a year ago last month.
00:48:18.970 --> 00:48:21.470 Frank R. Harrison: And, again.
00:48:21.650 --> 00:48:39.319 Frank R. Harrison: Joe, if you yourself are dealing with diabetes, or apnea, or high weight, aside from the nutrition that we have been talking about, consider the GLP-1s. I think they're more safe, especially after someone like Oprah Winfrey endorses it. But I'm also endorsing this book.
00:48:39.680 --> 00:48:42.709 Frank R. Harrison: Which, of all places, I got from my dentist's office, but…
00:48:42.830 --> 00:48:54.409 Frank R. Harrison: So be it. It's actually what we needed at the right time during the Thanksgiving holiday for my father and other members of my family. And, I did show it that it's available on Amazon for about a dollar.
00:48:54.480 --> 00:49:11.759 Frank R. Harrison: So it's worth the investment, especially for your long-term hair, long-term care and quality of life. Alright, it says 3 minutes to break, but I think I've done my part for the past 57 minutes. I thank you all. This is actually my season finale.
00:49:11.760 --> 00:49:28.529 Frank R. Harrison: I will be back next week for a new season of shows, right here on Frank About Health. I am no longer doing the Voices of Disruption campaign, I think that we really spelled that out all through the holidays, but, I'm gonna touch upon invisible illnesses next Thursday.
00:49:28.680 --> 00:49:45.999 Frank R. Harrison: More on that to follow. Everybody, you have a wonderful weekend. Know that tomorrow, Philanthropy in Focus will be on at 10am, and then next Thursday, after the Conscious Consultant Hour at 12 noon, you will have another episode of Frank About Health with me, Frank Harrison.
00:49:46.080 --> 00:50:00.639 Frank R. Harrison: Thank you again, behind the scenes, Samantha, for the work in helping me put together this show with all the technical challenges, but, I think, I think it was okay. So, I look forward to speaking, or seeing all of you next week. Have a good night.
