‘Tis the Season . . . For Illness
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, including a new osteoarthritis vaccine, a conversation on rheumatoid arthritis, and the season’s illnesses going around with flu and norovirus.

Is Your Keto Diet Making You Sick?
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.

Is a Big Belly Affecting Your Heart?
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.

Foods That Don't Go Together
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.

Is There a Link Between Hearing Loss and Alzheimer's?
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.

When Side Effects Become Symptoms
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 century-long transition where heart disease wasn’t really a thing to now being the #1 killer in America. 

Next, the slippery slope of lowering cholesterol through statins or other cardiovascular drugs. This usually goes along with a suggestion for a low-fat diet. Then, this can potentially lead to a cycle of invasive testing and prescribing of medications with side effects, then more medications to counteract the side effects but with side effects of their own, and then more medication. All of this happens instead of addressing the primary symptoms in the first place and looking into a sustainable way to address the actual issues at hand and treating the primary illness as opposed to chasing after symptom after symptom after symptom. 

So, what is a truly heart healthy diet? Dr. Jack breaks it down. It begins with eating food the way nature intended, avoiding “food-like” products and processed foods, getting supplements and nutrients from vitamins made from whole foods and made in nature, not in a lab. Plus, Dr. Jack still advises people should speak with their own primary care physician on truly necessary medication and the goal of eventually getting off of the medications because you are healing what is ailing you, not masking symptoms. 

Lastly, Doug joins Dr. Jack for a discussion on the truth about stress, good stresses vs bad stresses, and the types of exercises to help combat stress in our lives.

A New Hope to Alleviate Menopause Symptoms
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 new line of Cheetos and Doritos without any artificial colors or flavors, but questioning if this really counts as “good news” as there are still a lot of processed junk on the ingredients list. 

Next up, self-hypnosis may help some women going through menopause find relief from hot flashes — in frequency and intensity — with the help of listening to a daily audio hypnosis sessions. It’s worth menopausal patients discussing this with their doctors, as up to a 50% reduction has been found in the studies. 

When it comes to Dr. Ken’s expertise as a cardiologist, the conversation shifts to a heart-health focus with a conversation on “low-intensity” smoking, and the real effects of second-hand smoke, the reality of third-hand smoke. 

Then, a discussion on the future of medicine with new testing and clinical trials for incredible health developments in illnesses and diseases, including what gene-editing therapy can do to help those with high cholesterol.

How to Maintain Your Health For Longevity
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 importance of pairing eating well with proper supplements. Some people feel like they have to take so many supplements, but by eating better, and eating food the way mother nature intended, we can get a lot of the vitamins, minerals and nutrients we need without taking so many supplements, and only taking the supplements not already in our healthy diet. A healthy diet is key. Now, when it comes to supplements, they are not all created equal. There are supplements made from real food, and then there are supplements created in a lab. Look at the labels, pay attention to the ingredients. 

Moving on, in today’s world, there are 10 important things seniors must do to maintain longevity and a healthy, functioning body. Some of those include getting stopping bad habits like smoking and drinking (including vaping), maintain your proper weight with diet and exercise, even 4 days a week with aerobic work for 30 minutes like brisk walking — walking fast enough to stimulate your heart, but not so fast you are out of breath and can’t carry on a conversation. 

Life doesn’t have to end once we hit 65 years of age. Dr. Jack’s deep dive into this very topic, what you can be doing now for your longterm health, and why it’s never too late to start.

Lastly, Doug joins Dr. Jack for a discussion on the importance of vitamin D, why we’re chronically deficient in vitamin D, and the best way to naturally get more vitamin D as well as which supplements are the most beneficial.

New Treatment for Crohn's Disease
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 good news on a breakthrough in Parkinson’s diagnostic efforts as well as a new brain stem stimulator that can help Parkinson’s patients in treating their illness — which works like a brain pace maker the way a pace maker for the heart works. 

More medical updates from the “good news department”  FDA has approved a new treatment for Crohn’s disease — an inflammatory bowel disease — that can be self-administered at home, what Robert Kennedy, Jr. is doing with his position and how banning certain foods (or, rather food-like-products) as well as carcinogenic ingredients brings a new perspective to American health standards, and how senior citizens can keep their brains healthy and minimize their risk of dementia by monitoring and maintaining health cholesterol levels. 

Moving on, the conversation shifts to more information on weight loss/diabetes drugs, Wegovy and Ozempic, might help lower the risk of pancreatitis in patience with diabetes and/or obesity. Additionally, these drugs also help lower cravings for sweets, which also help manage diabetic symptoms and weight management. 

Lastly, Doug and Dr. Jack address listener questions. For starters, the discussion addresses hearing aids and how to find the best one for you. Next question is on deodorant and the differences. Are some better for women vs men, young vs old, aluminum vs aluminum-free are all addressed. Then, the gentlemen discuss the benefits vs risks of intermittent fasting.

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. 

Dr. Jack just returned from a several-day conference seminar in Minneapolis where he was speaking 10 150+ doctors on two separate mornings, and one of the things he was speaking on and wanted to share on the Good Day Health Program is heart health. With all of the technology we have today, and miraculous surgeries, heart disease is still the number 1 killer in America. So what’s missing? Why are deadly cardiac events still killing people at an alarming rate, making it the number 1 way to die for Americans. 

Additionally, the whole nutritional complex works best with heart disease problems, when the reality is that good food choices lead to better health. 

Then, Doug joins Dr. Jack to address listener questions, including the mind-body connection between what’s manifested physically from stress and psychosomatic symptoms.

Is Baby Aspirin Right For You?
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 the cardio-protection that’s coming from some of the GLP-1 drugs, an investigative study into how GLP-1 drugs my affect people’s risk for developing cancer, how many of these studies are funded by government grants that seem to be in jeopardy vs what is funded by drug companies.

Moving on, research shows highlights that the duration of walking matters, with a daily 60-minute walk contributes to longevity and a healthier heart. Another study brings the conversation to low-dose aspirin (AKA baby aspirin) and how it helps those with Type II diabetes. Once upon a time, baby aspirin was given to nearly everyone to prevent he first heart attack, but now the pendulum has swung to far the other way with people who could benefit from it not having the conversations with their doctors about whether or not it’s beneficial.

Next, there is a new three-pronged blood test that can predict heart attack risk, a surprising find that melatonin to help with sleep may be putting themselves at risk for future heart problems, and how AI can help doctors detect sepsis.

Lastly, Doug and Dr. Ken address listener questions, including the benefits of listening to music for those above the age of 70, is there such a thing as too much protein and what are the side effects, and the best multivitamins to add to your health plan.

What Are Net Carbs?
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 examines a constant of all of the patients he sees — they all want the best for their families, but they don’t always know what that is… until they take the time to study and learn what changes to integrate into their family menu and lifestyle, and that it all begins with baby steps and continuous routine that become habits, leading to sustainable lifestyle changes. The “Big Food” marketing tricks exist for the bottom line of making money with low quality food-like-products that cost consumers a lot more than the cost of production. Some of the terms to be aware of when it comes to supposedly healthy foods. For instance, “net carbs” is a phrase used when they subtract the fiber and sugar alcohol from the total carbohydrate count to trick the unsuspecting buyer, to get consumers to buy into thinking that the rest of the carbs don’t matter, and that’s not accurate. 

Then, Doug and Dr. Jack shed light on the E. coli outbreak from McDonald’s Quarter Pounders, On the topic of food-borne illnesses, the gentlemen break down the difference between E. Coli, Listeria, Salmonella, etc.

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 an interesting overview a study showcasing that music can speed one’s recovery from surgery, less young people are using tobacco products, a new diagnosis of Alzheimer’s or other dementia spurs patients to move from their home, what happens to our mind and body after losing a loved one, and new guidelines for preventing a first stroke. 

Then, how fast your body can bounce back into strength-training after taking time off.

Coffee Is Good For Your Health
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, the discussion focuses on a young patient he’s treating for Dyspraxia, also known as Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), which is a neuro-developmental disorder that affects motor coordination and movement, and how is work on her nervous system from a structural nature has been beneficial for the young patient’s movement and ability to walk without clumsiness.

Next, Dr. Jack discusses a study recently published from West Virginia University and Morgan State University on coffee’s positive association with better health and the potential for longer life. Apparently, people who drink 3-5 cups of coffee a day have a 10-15% lower risk of death from any cause. Even in cases of decaf coffee, there was still found to be a decreased risk for diabetes-related death. However, this only holds true for black coffee drinkers, not those who add creamers and sugars, etc. and organic beans are preferred. Additionally, you can add some grass-fed butter or ghee to your coffee for added benefits while having the coffee still considered to be black coffee.

Moving on, Dr, Jack addresses the ketogenic diet (AKA Keto Diet), a diet that generate ketones and why they’re beneficial for the brain and the heart.

Rounding out the conversation, Doug joins Dr. Jack, starting with the discussion of what a NUCCA chiropractor is and how they work. Plus, the gentlemen discuss the importance of hobbies and why having some is important to mental and emotional health.

How Many Steps A Day Do You Need?
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 an interesting overview on how our brain ages and new research identifying a genetic clue into being a super-ager — people in their 80s with the memory capacity of people much younger.

Moving on, there appears to be a new drug combination in those dealing with prostate cancer. 

Next up, the effects the government shut down is having on the world of medicine. This is a continued conversation from last week, and this week’s answer is very different — as the only impact was considered to be a lack of new FDA approvals and grants. Now, Dr. Ken points out that the length of the current government shutdown appears to be a challenge for beneficiaries of Medicare to receive Telehealth services without paying out of pocket.

Some good news about a new eye prosthesis that restores eye degeneration for patients with previously untreatable form of blindness. New research addresses surgical oncology with cutting edge cancer treatment in preserving capabilities of the lymph nodes — considering a general approach to cancer treatment is lymph node removal.

Continuing with good news, a focus on iron deficiency with good news of a new iron supplement for anemia treatment will combine iron supplements with prebiotics and probiotics to — restoring iron levels while maintaining gut health and preventing inflammation and digestive issues common in conventional iron pills.

The conversation shifts to a new focus on exercise with those who suffer from knee issues, especially with knee-osteoarthritis — specifically low-impact cardio, such as walking and cycling to be the greatest pain relief and improvement in mobility compared to other exercises. In the not-so-good department, new research shows a rising number of children not spending enough time outdoors.
While the digital age may play a big role in this new research, the reality is an effect of parental anxiety with parents of pre-schoolers or toddlers feating their children stray too far or climb too high.

Then, a new overview for older women has shifted from a 10,000 steps daily shifts down to 4,000 steps a day. Doug and Dr. Ken question if that’s truly a beneficial number, while agreeing that something is better than nothing.

Lastly, Doug and Dr. Ken address listener questions, including issues of constipation, the rise in measles cases, and the FDA’s recall on a common statin.

Cardiac Complications On the Rise In Pregnant Women
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 the good news of a gene-editing technique that could correct a mutation responsible for a certain type of inherited heart disease. This is a significant step forward that could offer a potential targeted correction of genetic faults.
