The beverage of choice for hundreds of millions of people is coffee. We’ve been told that it causes insomnia, raises blood pressure and may even increase the risk of heart disease. But new research also shows that it has more antioxidants than anything else. We’ll talk to the researcher who did the study about antioxidants and coffee and find out about the health benefits of a cuppa Joe.
Eating disorders can affect men and well as women. We’ll hear a poignant story of a man who only ate three poached eggs over three weeks and what he needs to do to prevent anorexia from taking over his life.
In addition to these stories we will open our lines for your questions about prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, herbs and dietary supplements. Join the conversation at (888) 472-3366.
