He also says that by slowing down your eating some people have found that their acid reflux has gotten better as well.

What? Your Convertible Can Make You Deaf. What?

00:00 /

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain how convertibles can damage your hearing even causing hearing loss. The loud roar of the wind and the road as you’re cruising down the highway with the top down can be damaging your hearing to the point of being deaf according to a recent study. You can prevent damage by rolling the windows up in your car or wearing ear plugs. Which are probably good ideas, especially if you have some kids driving in the convertible with you.

Nurse Rob Luka’s New Book Helps Kids Overcome Fear of Doctors

00:00 /

On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy had on Rob Luka RN, author of the book How to Help Children Overcome Fear in a Medical Setting. Rob is a registered nurse with lots of first hand experience helping kids feel comfortable at the doctor’s office. A great tip Rob shared was for the parent to present a calm demeanor and not look frightened in front of the child. Rob says the child is looking to the parent for visual cues to let him/her know what is going on. So if the parent looks panicked then the child is going to feel scared as well. Rob also explained that having the parent demonstrate the procedure first the child can see that it isn’t so bad and will go along. this works especially well with showing your child how to swallow a pill or get his/her blood pressure taken. He has worked with lots of kids who have juvenile diabetes and has helped their families manage the regular injections and blood testing they have to deal with. His goal is to educate parents and nursing students on some proven techniques that will make children of all ages feel safer and less fearful in the doctor’s office.
