Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, Doug and Dr. Ken discuss the biggest news stories in the medical world, starting with a focus on good news that heart attack deaths have dropped by nearly 90% since the 1900s, in large part to implementing knowledge of the fundamental risk factors of heart disease.
Additionally, a new study suggests a better way to measure weight over BMI (body mass index). The problem with it is that muscle and bone are a lot heavier than fat, which can give a false elevated BMI reading. A BMI over 30 is obesity. There are now high tech devices that can better measure body fat more accurately. Moving on, regular exercise in children isn’t only fighting childhood obesity, but also childhood anxiety and depression.
Next up, new hope of inverse vaccines that target a specific part of the immune system to suppress, and possibly reverse, autoimmune disease.
The next item of interest is what the Health and Human Services is doing with the food and drink products containing synthetic dyes and just how many food products they’re actually added to, and the most common is Red 40.
Then the question -- how beneficial are pets for our health if we’re allergic? Turns out, pet allergens are found in nearly all homes, even homes without pets. Pet allergens are from the pet dander, not their fur, and symptoms of pet allergies often mimic colds or seasonal allergies — sneezing, running nose, nasal congestion, red and/or itchy eyes, coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and hives or eczema. Immunotherapy is the only, ultimate relief of pet allergies. If you’re looking to reduce allergy symptoms to pets, that would include keeping the pets out of the bedroom, use HEPA air filters, wash hands after petting animals, bathe your pet regularly, and use a vacuums with a double or micro-filter bag.
Lastly, Doug and Dr. Ken answer listener questions, including low levels of a common drinking water contaminant linked to premature birth, low birth weight babies, and interference of the bloods ability to carry oxygen. Plus, are juice classes as healthy as we’re led to believe? Doug and Dr. Ken discuss that, too. In tandem with that, foods that are filled with microplastics include apples and carrots (most commonly used in juice cleanses). Other foods with higher levels of microplastics include rice, pink Himalayan sea salt, sugar, tea, plant-based nuggets, fish sticks, shrimp, and water.
