Monologue
Dr. Joel Wallach begins the show discussing “do-it-yourself” healthcare. Stating that all of the medical tests done in doctor’s offices can easily be done at home. Contending various test strips can be purchased at any pharmacy. Asserting that people can save thousands by doing these tests at home.
Pearls of Wisdom
Doug Winfrey and Dr. Wallach discuss a study from the UK. Researchers examined the outcomes of patients with stable angina. After an extensive drug regiment some patients received heart stents for blocked arteries. Other patients received a placebo treatment with same outcome regarding their symptoms. Meaning patients in the past who were given stents for arteries that were not blocked probably should have gotten a stent.
