SUMMARY:Wellness Talk: Dementia Denied with Ginger Smith
DESCRIPTION:The mainstream medical view still holds that there is no cure for dementia\, and for many people\, that remains tragically true. That’s exactly why Ginger’s story feels so urgent to share. It is not presented as a miracle or a guaranteed path. It is one woman’s extraordinary lived experience of reversing her symptoms and reclaiming her independence after being near death. Come join Ginger to hear her inspiring memoir. \nGinger Smith is a retired speech-language pathologist who worked alongside neurology professionals at Stanford University Medical Hospital and trained physicians at both Stanford and UCSF. Her book blends her personal experience with a researcher’s lens. What began as a quiet\, personal reckoning evolved into years of inquiry into the hidden factors that may mimic or amplify dementia symptoms\, including trauma\, nervous system dysregulation\, drug interactions\, inflammation\, and more.

SUMMARY:Food for Thought: Jews\, Schmaltz\, and Crisco in the Age of Industrial Food
DESCRIPTION:Crisco has been marketed to Jews as “truly clean and truly kosher.” In the early twentieth century\, Procter & Gamble conducted a series of advertising campaigns to convince Jewish women to change their preferred cooking fats from butter and schmaltz (rendered poultry fat) to Crisco. The success of this early example of targeted marketing reveals how American Jews have changed as religious practitioners and as consumers. Jewish home cooks\, generally women\, were persuaded to relinquish authority to corporate experts not only in matters of cuisine and health\, but also in religious practices related to food production and consumption. Examining Crisco’s targeted advertising to Jews helps us consider who is\, and who should be\, an authority in the modern Jewish kitchen. \nRachel B. Gross is a Professor of American Jewish Studies at San Francisco State University. She is a scholar of religious studies whose work focuses on the lives\, spaces\, and objects of twentieth-century and contemporary American Jews. Dr. Gross received her Ph.D. from Princeton University.
