When Too Much Is Too Much

Tuesday, June 10-  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 the cognitive benefits of keeping your mind active, the exercise of using your non-dominant hand to write or do other activities to shake-up your brain and keep it fit.Then, a discussion on recreational marijuana use and the harmful effect it causes on the heart, the biggest food sources of sodium/salt for Americans are contributing to high blood pressure and heart disease, and how eating healthier can help your brain.Next up, news that regularly consuming coffee during middle age may actually cause a health boost for women as they get older, and the supplements your body needs for optimal health and how to properly get them without causing damage to your liver. The most overused botanical herbal or dietary supplements leading to liver toxicity are green tea, turmeric, ashwagandha, garcinia cambogia, red yeast rice, and black cohosh. While they all have great components to help with various chronic health issues, too much of anything is never a good thing.Moving on, how much weight you need to lose to prolong your life and lower your chances of medical-related early death, some good news of a steady growth curve of those who’ve been diagnosed with cancer and survived, and the importance of preventative care to battle illness over diagnostic care.Lastly, Doug is joined by a friend of the program, Elizabeth Miller with Calotren. The conversation dives into the 30-year history of Calotren helping people lose weight. The weight loss product was created by nurses to help patients heal their body, feel better, help with joint pain, help with sleep, and they noticed people were tightening up and losing weight. Calotren isn’t a quick-hitting weight loss drug, but a sustainable weight loss product that helps you lose weight and keep it off. There is an 86% rate with a 90-day supply, and a 45-day return policy if you decide you don't like it after trying it out for a month.
