LISTEN TO THE COMPLETE SHOW FOR DETAILS OF SUBJECTS DISCUSSED IN THIS INTERVIEW.
D.O.H.C. w/ Dr. Brian Hodgkins re: Executive V.P. of Clinical Operations @ D.O.H.C.; 275 El Cielo Rd., Palm Springs, 92262. “Your Health, Your Life, Our Passion”.
– QUESTIONS IN THE MEDICINE CABINET from; Dr. Lindsey, Dr. Brian, news, Internet and Joey Pals in the “Medicine Cabinet”.
1. Explain an addiction to the Internet impacting teenager’s brains? (Study done in England. Studied over a ten-year span. Could tell that kids that spend gaming (recreational) use vs function (school work) use. Study showed significant changes in the neuroconnections between the front of the brain (where executive functioning, decision making, thought happens) and the rest of the brain. Disassociation between the normal function of the brain and learning. Internet Gaming Disorder in the U.S. is a real concern. CAUSES kids to 1. Withdraw. 2. Makes their world smaller, not bigger. 3. Stay in their room (definitely an addictive posture). Need to create other activities.)
2. A study says 75% of past covid patients NOW have a heart condition? (Yes. We knew this in the beginning. Now a new study of patients between the ages of 18 and 83 showed 75% of these folks had elevated proteins that are normally associated w/ heart attacks. Mostly of folks between 40 and 60. Covid has the ability to raise this protein. Seems to “drop” eventually.)
