Why Friendships Are Important

10/22/24 - Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics, including a focus on how the recent hurricanes affected medical procedures in central Florida where Dr. Ken’s practice is, how AI is contributing to misinformation/disinformation overload, heart issues related to mental stress, how persistent loneliness can take a toll on an aging brain, and the health benefits of going without alcohol for 30 days. Plus, why friendships are important in teen years, the absurd price of an ambulance ride, a new study on weight loss drugs shows a decreased risk for depression and mental health when used in obese teens and young people, what’s the relationship between caffeine and hypertension, and rethinking fluoridation. Doug and Dr. Ken discuss that, too. Website: GoodDayHealthShow.comSocial Media: @GoodDayNetworks
