February Is Heart Month

Tuesday, February 11 -  Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, a new research study on mental health finds people tend to feel best in the morning — in terms of mood and wellbeing — and feel their worst around midnight, a look at heart health and why it’s important to keep in focus and not only during Heart Month in February, the heart health of new mothers (especially when pregnant with multiples) within the first few months after birth and increased risk of heart-related issues, and waiting 5 years after a live birth before getting pregnant again can help the heart health of childbearing women. More conversation and insight includes the benefits flossing  your teeth has on the brain, lungs and heart. Doug and Dr. Ken discuss that, too. Plus, a discussion on good cholesterol, the effects of contracting COVID-19 can have on your arteries and increase your risk of a stroke, lasting effects of heavy marijuana use, and the latest update on the avian influenza. Then, Doug Stephan is joined by Calotren’s Elizabeth Miller to discuss how you can lose weight and keep it off in a healthy, sustainable way.
