Listen in because what you know helps ensure healthy choices you can live with. Today on Healthy Talk, you wanted to know: With finals coming up, I don't want my daughter taking things like NoDoz to stay up. What can she take for energy that's safe and lasting? Dr. Mike wants you to understand that you can't just take these natural energy boosters and expect to see immediate results. It's better to take these over a period of time. These supplements include CoQ10, carnitine, ribose, vitamin B12, and fermented gingseng. Please discuss the study that showed people taking a multivitamin had a reduced risk of stroke. Nowhere in the mainstream media is this being reviewed. Unfortunately, that's how some media outlets are. That's why it's so important for you to do your own research. Published in the American Heart Association journal Stroke, researchers revealed a reduction in stroke deaths among users of multivitamin supplements. If you have a health question or concern, Dr. Mike encourages you to write him at askdrmikesmith@radiomd.com or call in, toll-free, to the LIVE radio show (1.844.305.7800) so he can provide you with support and helpful advice.
