On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), covers the the biggest news in the health and wellness space from a holistic, naturopath perspective. In this episode, Dr. Jack starts with the holiday season and holiday buying. Eating single ingredients (real whole foods) is one of the best things you can do for your body. Avoid ultraprocessed food products, which are always a combination of inflammatory seed oil, sugar, denatured grains, preservatives, and fillers. Then, Dr. Jack discusses Keto products, and something to keep in mind about eggs and natural flavors. One of the least nutritious foods would be breakfast cereals, even “Keto” ones. If you have to, or insist, on having breakfast cereal in your pantry, find one where sugar is not one of the first 3 listed ingredients. Good luck. Just because something is labeled Keto, doesn’t mean it’s actually healthy. Lastly, Doug and Dr. Jack join together to answer listener questions, including how aspirin’s affect developing brains, a link between longterm melatonin use and heart issues, as well as what supplements and nutrients you can add to your over-the-counter (OTC) lineup that will actually help and not cover up issues or cause more issues because they were solely created in a lab and have nothing to do with what nature provides. Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…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 discussion on a new treatment for Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT), which is good news for people who suffer from this rare mality, the a proof of concept trial for a new oral therapy for those who deal with severe and recurrent nose bleeds and internal bleeding. In the past, there was no treatment for this, so this is great news and a wonderful step forward for those with HHT. Next up, in Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) news, preventative measures are being tested so that newborns, who are most susceptible, will have a better chance at prevention of acute lung conditions as well as lifelong lung condition of asthma. RSV immunizations can help prevent future children from developing asthma. Then, Doug and Dr. Ken discuss new guidelines for obesity drugs around the world with the World Health Organization (WHO) releasing global guidelines on GLP-1s with key recommendations warning that the medications should not be a stand alone solution. Weight loss drugs should be incorporated into a comprehensive care plan that includes diet and physical activity. WHO also goes into highlighting concerns of global equity, cost and longterm data gaps. The conversation shifts to a study on “beer bellies,” and what it means for heart health and risks, especially in men. Belly fat seems to be linked to changes in heart structure that contribute to heart failure. The heart muscle itself thickens without the heart itself increasing in size, which leads to a smaller volume of blood able to be pumped out of the heart. Another item of obesity has to do with youngsters and the correlation of pre-teens spending too much Tim eon their phones, leading to less time spent with physical activity. This leads to increased risk of depression, obesity, and lower sleep qualities. Other news includes a new treatment for spinal problems, the FDA’s granted accelerated approval for a drug treatment for adults with primary IgA Nephropathy, a study on fame being a killer, whether or not shoulder surgery benefits outweigh the risks involved, and new conclusions of a link between acetaminophen (Tylenol being the most famous brand) and whether or not it’s causing autism or ADHD in children when the mother used the drug during pregnancy.  Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), covers the the biggest news in the health and wellness space from a holistic, naturopath perspective. In this episode, Dr. Jack starts with a discussion on Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s not-so-recent address that he will pull certain funding from medical schools unless they begin teaching nutrition as a foundation for patient health. Dr. Jack recounts his time in medical school, and one orthopedic surgeon he studied under and why that man was inspiring to him; especially because the topic of nutrition was always addressed. Then, Dr. Jack discusses different food combinations that may lead to problems or alleviate problems. For instance, starches and proteins don’t go together. That’s meat and potatoes. That’s meat and breads (yes, that’s sandwiches). Vegetables go with everything, except fruit, and fruit should always be eaten alone. This habit is from where indigestion, heartburn, even diabetes can be coming. Dr. Jack also suggests what supplements/enzymes you can eat to not tax the liver from consuming improperly combined foods.  Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…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 new research on early Alzheimer’s warnings, particularly for those with hearing loss. This news continues to emphasize the importance of getting your hearing tested, especially if your loved ones point out you aren’t hearing them (since many don’t want to acknowledge hearing issues themselves). Additionally, a study suggested listening to music may lower your rate of dementia. Because there is no cure for dementia, prevention is important. Listening to music is helpful, and playing an instrument is even better. Next up, a new blood test can help diagnose the severity of head trauma when a concussion occurs, good news out of the Mayo Clinic looking at a minor procedure to get a stint in a blood vessel instead of a major surgery with the carotid artery, and the benefits of a low-dose aspirin for heart health in some (it is no longer universally recommended), and how it is also being shown to help diabetic patients specifically.Moving on, there’s new data on coffee consumption, looking at drinking one cup of caffeinated coffee per day may significantly lower a person’s risk of recurrent A-Fib episodes by as much as 39%. Rounding out the conversation, Doug and Dr. Ken answer listener questions, including colitis flare ups post-Thanksgiving indulgence, as well as causes and symptoms, in addition to foods that have microplastics in them at a higher rate than ever before. Those foods include sea salt, beer, shellfish, rice, apples, carrots, even tea. Now, the question begs, is this enough to be causing harm, or is this just a measurement used as a scare tactic. Doug and Dr. Ken discuss.  Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks
