Monologue
Dr. Joel Wallach begins the show discussing failed medical theories. Pointing out that North Carolina and several other states have noted that SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) is gone. Docs asserts this is because because of sueing the government to make infant formula manufacturors to add nutrients to their formulas. Now babies are getting much needed nutrients. Contending the previous ways doctors said why babies died were failed medical theories.
Pearls of Wisdom
Doug Winfrey and Dr. Wallach discuss a news article about the FDA halting sales of pelvic mesh after years of injuries. Gynecologists began using the pelvic mesh devices to treat pelvic collapse in the 1990s. The FDA approved the mesh specifically for use in 2002. Unfortunately from the start there were tens of thousands of reports of pain, bleeding and infections. Sometimes the mesh could shift puncturing internal organs or the abdominal wall. Often requiring multiple surgeries to remove or reposition the mesh.
