5:00 pm
ew jobs, new opportunities and a new tax free plan. there's only one way for your business to go. up. find out if your business can qualify at start-upny.com gerri: hello, everybody, i'm gerri willis. right now on "the willis report", if you or a family member are not on cholesterol drugs, new guidelines may change that. also, want juicier returns from the stock market but not sure how? we'll dig into a hot new investing trend. how do you do that? asking your boss for a raise. we're watching out for you on "the willis report." gerri: welcome to the show. good to have you here. tonight alzheimer's, could the solution to the disease be found inside of ourselves?
5:01 pm
that's a question researchers are asking today after they found a human gene with a power to protect brains from the dreaded disease. here with more, dr. robert malilo, president of the international association of functional neurology and rehabilitation and he is cofounder of brain balance achievement centers. great to have you here, doctor. >> great to be here. gerri: tell us about this gene. >> for all of us aging babe bp boomers i think this is good news. this is good news. basically we've identified a gene that regulates basically self-destruction of our brain over time. meaning that this gene, when it is turned on it protects us against what we call oxy date tiff stress, which is basically stress on the brain and that causes degeneration. gerri: good news, it is inside your body. when you're a baby you have this bean. it is inside your body all the time. could we find a way to flip it on and off? >> i think so. that is really the key thing. you're talking about non-gene
5:02 pm
mutation where the gene is damaged but where the gene may be turned on or off. yes, there are environmental factors that will lead to this. there may be environmental factors that trip it off. we can find those out and prevent this disease. we might be able to use different things like drug or exercise or brain stimulation to actually turn it back on. gerri: amazing, amazing. i know at love families out there are desperate for some kind of a solution. what kind of proof to we have now that this might work? you. >> know i think that there's a lot of proof what we believe are risk factors for the disease, if you're unhealthy. if you have diabetes. if you have hypertension. if you had brain injury. or an athlete and had a concussion, if you have adhd as a child, these lead to risk of dementia and neurodegenerative disorders and we know what kind of triggers it. in functional neurology a lot of my colleagues are doing things with brain stimulation where
5:03 pm
we'll publish some research soon that will really show that we can change this dramatically. gerri: that's very exciting. >> it is. gerri: i understand there is also research, research with people? research with mice, on this idea, this gene and changing it and making it do different things. >> right. gerri: is that convincing? >> yes, absolutely. i think that you know, it makes sense, really. when you look at it, it has got to make sense. this makes sense. we know that increased stress, a stress response, is related to increased neurodegeneration. we see this gene regulates that stress response. it basically turns it off. so if we have things related to stress like hypertension, diabetes, you know, obesity, these things elevate the risk and also increase your stress response. gerri: so if we take care of those things maybe we take care of the alzheimer's. as you know it takes a long time to come up with a solution you can put in a bottle or market to folks. how far are we to something that can really help people?
5:04 pm
>> if we're looking something like a drug or something like that, it is probably a while. what this tells us, doing things that are lifestyle oriented, increasing our health, increasing our exercise, diet, nutrition, what we eat, these things may also trigger this gene naturally which makes more sense, right? we don't have to worry about side-effects. i think we can do that now and look at this information and i think it can have an impact right away. gerri: that's very exciting news. i know a lot of people out there desperate for some good news on the alzheimer's front. thank you for coming on the show tonight. great to have you here. thanks so much. >> you too. gerri: wow, that is good news. more gifts from an unlikely source, the irs. attention, taxpayers. there are $760 million in unclaimed tax refund up for grabs. maybe some of your money. free money from the irs. not kidding. here with the details, the director of budget and regulatory policy for americans for tax reform. mattie, welcome back to the
5:05 pm
show. who are these people that leave money on the table with the irs? >> gerri, i disagree with your categorization of free money. it is actually taxpayers money they have not yet claimed from the irs. gerri: it is unclaimed though. it is unclaimed and just waiting to be claimed. >> yes, crazy. almost a million taxpayers who are actually missing out on their refund from 2010 and irs statutes state that you can actually hold on to refund for three years after the actual filing year without any penalties, without any problems with the irs. all you have to do is go back and get it. >> whoa, wait. no penalty? so i forget to file, i don't file. they oh me money and i don't get in trouble for not filing? >> well, a lot of these people too, you have to remember, who have some kind of a liability but maybe don't realize it and they're getting a refund on top of that are probably people working part time jobs or kids in college who don't realize there is money being with held
5:06 pm
from their paychecks or don't think they have enough money to qualify for tax return f you're making money you're required to file. doesn't mean thaw owe. probably a lot of people out there don't really understand the difference. gerri: be honest, if you owed the money they would be coming after you. >> exactly. gerri: because they owe you money, they're not calling you or writing a you letter, saying hey, gerri, remember 2010? you forgot to file. we owe you some money but doesn't happen but it should, shouldn't it? shouldn't they be calling you and say, hey, we owe you money? wouldn't that be the fair thing to do? >> listen, taxes are very confusing for the average american but one thing we do know, treasury doesn't want to part with any money it doesn't have to. that's why they're not about to let you know. unfortunately the burden of proof essentially here is on the taxpayer to make sure they're getting their money back. this really speaks to the complexity and just kind of the ridiculous nature of our tax code. if it is so complex you can't even figure out how much of your own money you get hold on to, obviously there is time for a change. gerri: well i couldn't agree with you on that more. and i know our viewers agree.
5:07 pm
it is time for a change. got to simplify that tax code. that's for sure. astonishing to me though, that people walk away from money that is owed to them. you can check it out on the website, right? where do they go? >> the irs website, actually for all of its, all of its complexity, is not so bad. you can go to irs.gov. they lay out for you how to check status of your return or this year or years prior. they have a help number you can call too. a lot it is very confusing for people who are not starting to make money or working part-time jobs. don't really understand the tax code. there are at love other things behind having a refund. maybe your status changed for child filing and you didn't know your with holding changed with it there are a lot of nuances people don't understand and don't think about until april 15th he have year. if you filed something or forgot to file something and you never had a letter from the irs, it is probably not on the forefront of
5:08 pm
your mind. gerri: if you can't remember what you did in 2010 and want to know if you're owed money, go to irs.gov if. >> that's right. gerri: irs.gov. end r don't call them and ask them a question because they're not really answering questions this year. thanks for the help. great to see you. >> you too. gerri: and remember, we are here for you. if you want to sound off about something in the show tweet me@gerri willis fbn. go to gerriwillis.com. we have more coming up in the show playing off office politics and getting that raise you've been hoping for. a look at new guidelines regarding heart disease and why 13 million more americans may be looking at taking meds for the rest of their lives.
5:09 pm
if you've got copd like me... ...hey breathing's hard. know the feeling? copd includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. spiriva is a once-daily inhaled copd maintenance treatment that helps open my obstructed airways for a full 24 hours. spiriva helps me breathe easier. spiriva handihaler tiotropium bromide inhalation powder does not replace fast-acting inhalers for sudden symptoms. tell your doctor if you have kidney problems,
5:10 pm
glaucoma, trouble urinating, or an enlarged prostate. these may worsen with spiriva. discuss all medicines you take, even eye drops. stop taking spiriva and seek immediate medical help if your breathing suddenly worsens, your throat or tongue swells, you get hives, vision changes or eye pain, or problems passing urine. other side effects include dry mouth and constipation. nothing can reverse copd. spiriva helps me breathe better. does breathing with copd weigh you down? don't wait to ask your doctor aboutpiriva.
5:11 pm
gerri: so new guidelines on who should take cholesterol-reducing drugs. these rules are raising the question, are we protecting americans hearts or are we overprescribing? the new rules would put nearly half of all americans between the ages of 40 and 75 on statin drugs like lipitor and crestor. great to see you, dr. steve, always good to have you on the show. tell us what these new rules
5:12 pm
would do. >> these new rules are really getting away from following cholesterol blood levels and looking at risk. if you fall into a high-risk category we'll treat you no matter what the cholesterol levels are. gerri: what does that mean? >> there are several high-risk cholesterol groups. high ldl over 190. diabetes over the age of 45, 50. people with known cardiovascular disease and people who also fit into this risk calculator of calculating overall risk, over 7 1/2%, if you've over the age of 40. that is the group that really all the controversy is in. that is the group that really, they talk about increasing, that number of people being treated by potentially 10 million people. gerri: well, you know, we'll show that website if we can a little later in this segment but here's, we have the website? let's show it. tools.cardiosource.org. you will go to the website and what will you see and what will it tell you? >> this is risk calculator. female, age, high blood
5:13 pm
pressure. cholesterol level is. and it will automatically calculate your 10-year risk for cardiovascular disease. and that is helpful in motivating people to get treated. when you bring in patients to your office and show t computer what their risk is, 10%, they will be a lot more motivated. we still want to start with lifestyle modification. gerri: all right. >> we want to talk about diet. gerri: we'll talk about lifestyle mods in a minute but i'm still trying to understand how the rules have changed. sound like to me what they want to do is put everybody on drugs? >> what they want to do put people on drugs with increased risk of cardiovascular events. also included stroke, not only heart attack so that also increases numbers. gerri: in some age groups it is most people they recommend putting on these drugs. this is my question to you. i always thought say doctors say first, if there is not a problem let's not treat it and give drugs to people who don't need them. are there downsides to statin drugs? do people have reactions to them? >> there are is risk benefit to
5:14 pm
statins definitely. we look at other things besides risk categories. gerri: what are the risks? >> main risk factors are hypertension, high blood pressure, diabetes, lipids, smoking, family history of obesity, those are important cardiac risk factors. you do other types of testing. look for dysfunction, stress testing. gerri: wow. >> could further subcategory rise these people. maybemaybe you're right, not everybody with a higher risk needs to be treated with statins. somebody with high blood pressure and smoking attack those issues. don't necessarily treat with statin that is not the way it goes. it has to be individualized treatment. gerri: my question some of these statins have side-effect. headache. people can't sleep. muscle aches. nausea, vomiting, on and on. does it make sense to give everybody these drugs? >> obviously if they have side-effects you try a different drug. moring a gross sieve with lifestyle modification. eating foods that lower cholesterol. diet. exercise. these are things we'll always start with first. statins are not only way to go.
5:15 pm
they may be overprescribed if you fall asleep at wheel and speak to each patient what is going on. >> i like that. you're coming up with something specifically for me. i'm not relying on some formula from some study somewhere to figure out how to get treated. you're telling me you're designing something specifically for me based on who i am what my health risks are. >> that's way we do it in the office. if we need to do stress test we do a test stress of the if we do a test functioning of arteries we'll do that it has to be individualized. special diet. walking 30 minutes a day. weight loss. those are more important to start with than starting with the statins. gerri: get a good dr. like steve reese manifester. >> thanks, gerri. gerri: thanks for coming on the show. later in the show, why are professional investors getting out of the housing market? is this good news for bad news for the rest of us? we answer the question, how do you do that. we have advice how to get ahead at work and best time and best way to ask for a raise.

5:41 pm
>> they are utilizing this and making it less expensive than actively managed mutual funds and it depends on what you're comparing specifically and currently and is probably more expensive than the standard indexing is more and more interest build in that area and the cost will come down. gerri: rick, what the sacred is there a dirty secret looking in the back? >> it's not a secret of the etf, it's simply a pipeline for managing the strategy. so it's really not a debate and have an underlying strategy.
