The People's Pharmacy Radio Show - Very Popular (Free Podcast)

I'm really glad I found this, and pleased to be able to share this with you. I discovered a large collection of free podcasts on the NPR website. I was particularly interested in the NPR Health and Science podcasts. But, here's what caught my eye. The People's Pharmacy Radio Program Podcast [WUNC] with links and downloads to the latest podcast. Here's the NPR description of the program, "Everything from home remedies to the latest breakthrough drugs are discussed on The People's Pharmacy. Pharmacologist Joe Graedon and medical anthropologist Terry Graedon talk to leading experts to discuss issues relating to drugs, herbs, home remedies, vitamins and related health topics." I've followed this program for years and have found it incredibly interesting and educational. I hope you will agree. If you like People's Pharmacy, here are some items you might want:

2 Hot Summer Podcasts - vacation weight gain, and survive the heat wave

Summer is still on! Checkout these 2 podcasts from the MedicineNet podcast library.

1. Avoiding Vacation Weight Gain. Listen to the the vacation podcast, which explains, "vacations should be an opportunity to re-energize, refresh, and relax -- not an excuse to take a break from health. When planning your vacation, opt for locations that will allow you to engage in physical activities you enjoy. Keep in mind that physical activity is the ticket to enjoying extra calories without weight gain."
2. Surviving A Heat Wave - Without Air Conditioning. Listen to the the heatwave podcast, which explains, "steps to take to keep your cool when it's hot. Avoid alcoholic beverages and caffeine, as both these substances can act as diuretics and promote dehydration."
