Manage episode 483694820 series 2071302
Did you know that close to 300,000 people a year die of iatrogenic disease in the United States? That’s dying from the side effects of medication. Dr. Martin thinks that number is crazy and cautions listeners to be careful with over-the-counter medications.
Dr. Martin looks at an article pointing out the potential kidney and stomach damage from using ibuprofen regularly. It’s not good and can lead to renal failure if you’re not careful.
Dr. Martin also comments on several other studies about resistance training, the positive impact of sunlight in prostate cancer and the role of diet in cognitive function in Alzheimer's patients.
