Brain-Body Breakthroughs - Larry McCleary MD show

Summary: The news wires have been buzzing this week and you'll soon hear why. From Lt. Columbo's Fatal Miscalculation -- and why that's important -- to a discussion about one of the most misunderstood aspects of women's health (thyroid disorders) and also including some compelling insights from two huge new studies on calcium supplementation (http://www.bmj.com/content/342/bmj.d2040.full.pdf), bone health and the darker side of calcium (http://womensvoicesforchange.org/calcium-supplements-what-does-it-all-mean.htm)-- where more is definitely not better. You'll learn about the trade off between prevention of broken bones and the increase in heart attacks and strokes; how you can be hypothyroid and have normal blood tests; and why general anesthesia can put you at higher risk for Alzheimer's disease -- breaking news that's not available anywhere else. So stay tuned!
