Tuesday, June 17-  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 MIND diet and what it can do for anyone concerned about getting dementia, why the Mediterranean Diet tends to be a foundation for most heart-healthy diets, and why eating beans is beneficial for your health (and a deep dive into why beans are considered the “musical fruit”). Some of the brain-healthy food groups for the MIND Diet are green leafy vegetables, nuts, berries, beans, cold water fatty fish, and olive oil.

Next up, why exercise is as important as proper diet and nutrition, a new study shows exercise can be more beneficial than drug intervention for recurrent colorectal cancer, and post menopausal women are at an increased risk for heart disease and why eating mango can help lower the risk of dying from heart disease.

Then, diving into why nightshades, including tomatoes, have great antioxidants properties, but not everyone can tolerate nightshade fruits and vegetables.

The conversation shifts to the sleep habits of children and how it correlates to a happy family. Yes, a well-slept family is happier — and a happy family gets better sleep with research supporting a strong bidirectional relationship between family happiness and quality sleep.

Lastly, Dr. Ken and Doug refer to a conversation from last week’s Good Day Health program with Dr. Jack, where Jack said improper supplement brands do nothing but harm your liver and other organs — stating supplements from natural ingredients are far superior than synthetic supplements. Dr. Ken’s answer is more about everything in moderation, and why too much of the synthetic supplements can be harmful, but are not inherently harmful.
