If you are hiking in the hinterlands this summer, what first aid should you take along? We talk with Dr. Jim Hubbard, author of
The Survival Doctor's Complete Handbook, about what to do when you can't get to the doctor.
Home Remedies for Summertime Maladies:Dr. Hubbard also shares some of his favorite home remedies. What home remedies do you use most often for hot weather problems?
Diet Controversies Heat Up:Butter made headlines recently when nutrition scientists at Tufts University published a meta-analysis showing that butter doesn't lead directly to diabetes, heart disease or death. Sweet corn in the summer tastes so much better with butter on it, so this is good news. Why have they gotten such push-back? What's your take on butter?
We are interested in your stories and questions about first aid for summer. Ask your question or share your story: Call 888-472-3366 between 7 and 8 am EDT on July 9, 2016 or email radio@peoplespharmacy.com
