Breakthrough In Alzheimer's Early Detection

Tuesday, April 8 -  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 with some good news from the world of medicine with a simple smell test for early detection of Alzheimer’s in an effort to treat the neurodegenerative disease early. Then, the conversation shifts to a focus between the connection between heart problems and brain diseases, evidence of animals and degenerative brain diseases, the FDA approves the first home-based nonprescription diagnostic test for certain STDs for women, sugar substitutes and why they aren’t always a better alternative, children of obese mothers are more likely to become an obese adult, and the differences between the diabetes and weight loss drugs. Questioning why it’s so difficult to find a doctor, and why there’s such a long weight to get in with your medical team, the latest information on the Avian Flu, and changes in Medicaid affecting your wallet. Doug and Dr. Ken discuss that, too.
