How much “social capital” have you raised? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. We all need friends, the call at 3am type of friends that you can trust and count on.

MUSIC FOR DOC SHOCK (JIM)
Fascinating study out of Columbia University which looked at people in the Ukraine who were subject to the famine of 1932-33 during early gestation – in other words, when they were still in utero. Turns out that those who were in areas exposed to famine early in the gestational development were 1.5 times more likely to develop diabetes later in life, compared to no risk when not exposed to famine and food shortages. It looks as though epigenetics and DNA are affected from the very early stages of life. Pregnancy is when nutrition is of the utmost importance, not only for the mom and new born baby, but for the future of that baby.
