Drink More Water

Tuesday, May 6 -  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 start the episode with a focus on the measles and if there is truly a need to be concerned, how contagious the virus really is, how many confirmed cases constitutes as an outbreak, and how is most at risk. Then, the conversation shifts to new cancer treatments that may be able to replace chemotherapy and surgical options, the role lifestyle plays (in addition to genetics) in your risk of cancer, new information on colon cancer, a 15-year aging advantage and why it’s not too late to start taking better care of yourself —  with an emphasis on better sleep quality, healthier eating, proper exercise for your age and body type — and benefits, beyond hydration, of drinking more water. Then, the link between ultra-processed foods and early death due to health-related complications, the affects of Spring allergies  of which most are unaware, a new flesh-eating STI, and the importance of proper walking shoes when starting a walking workout. Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks
