For Thanksgiving, I have some health questions. Let’s start with one I hear pretty much every year: Does eating turkey actually make you sleepy?
Bodywork
Bodywork: Do braces provide real relief for tennis elbow?
Are braces for joints another example of the placebo effect, or are they for real?
Bodywork: What causes fainting after running?
During a recent marathon, a friend stopped briefly to pose for a photo with family and friends. But when he did, he felt faint and nearly passed out. He went on to finish the race and reports no further problems. Is this something he needs to explore further with his doctor?
Bodywork: Making sense of new advice for aspirin and heart health
I’ve heard it said you should take an aspirin or baby aspirin a day to help prevent heart attacks and strokes. But I read that this advice has changed?
Bodywork: Why don’t Covid-19 vaccinations last a lifetime?
Some vaccines last a lifetime. How come Covid-19 shots don’t seem to?
Bodywork: Can you get flu and Covid vaccines at the same time?
Flu shots have arrived. Is there any danger in getting a flu vaccine and a Covid-19 shot at the same time?
