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 begin with what he sees from patients after the first of the year. Primarily, part of New Year’s Resolutions include a focus on health, with people coming into the doctor’s office more often to check in on their health, especially with the overindulgence from the holiday season. January, in general, is a time of huge interest in one’s health.

Then, the conversation shifts to a lab-grown heart, creating hopeful treatments for the future to regrow human organs. Continuous research and trials are intended to lead to successful transplants without needing donor waiting lists.

Next up, Doug and Dr. Ken dive into Myasthenia Gravis (MG), a chronic autoimmune disease causing fluctuating weakness in voluntary muscles (eyes, face, swallowing, limbs) that worsens with activity and improves with rest, due to nerve signals being blocked from reaching muscles by the immune system. There is now a FDA approved treatment offering new hope to patients with MG.

Shifting focus to mental health, a review finds some patients are able to safely taper off some of the antidepressants, a new hope following criticism that once you got on these drugs you can’t get off of them.

Rounding out the conversation, listener questions are addressed, including the dangers of hair loss pills and potential benefits of topicals over consumed OTC or prescribed medications, surprising benefits of vitamin D that go beyond bone health, if women should exercise differently than men or if age matters more than sex, and more.
