Episode 14 - Shots, On The House - Opioids vs non-opioids, Red Yeast Rice, Heart disease test

We are taking Big Shots today. Instead of a quick recap into news articles like we do with 3 Shots, we go into further depth with several news stories. We tackle things like opioid pain medicine vs over the counter medicine, a new test for detecting heart disease, metformin and diabetes, red yeast rice for cholesterol (or was it red beans and rice?) and we will spin the Wheel of Medicine once again.

Subscribe to our show and let your friends and family know, too, so they can get and stay healthy!   We dive deep into medicine so you don't have to. You stay safe (and informed) swimming in the shallows. We present the best studies and research in easy to understand and entertaining ways. We gladly accept show topics and ideas from our listeners.
