iRescueRadio 042: Fainting, Aliens, Sleep Paralysis, Dreams

Comments:2 Comments

Sleep disorders affect millions of people. Associated problems can range from feeling tired during the day to life threatening cardiovascular damage.  If you have had difficulty with sleep maybe it is  something other than a medical condition. Maybe it is those pesky aliens that keep abducting people in the night.  Are aliens abducting people or could it be sleep paralysis? You’ll have to listen in to find out.   The iRescueradio guys are up to their usual antics with Dan’s fainting,  Roy’s research,  and Jody’s dreaming.

We’ve included a bonus feature this week, a “behind the scenes” blooper.  Jody learned a valuable lesson about reviewing research before trying to use it.

iRescueRadio 013: Of Roses, Romance, Legionnaires, Vaccines and Autism

Comments:

This is another episode that you won’t want to miss.  We talk about buying Roses for Valentine’s Day, with a story about Dan’s first date.  It’s a lot of laughs as we then move the topic of conversation toward a chemical effect on Romance.

We then delve into Legionnaires’ Disease and Pontiac Fever for a bit.

We end the episode talking about a Court ruling that a vaccine is not to blame for autism.  This is a huge ruling with the many families that have been effected by this possible connection.  I had seen an episode of the television show Eli Stone that deals with that issue.  As it turns out, that episode caused a controversy in the medical field, as it was thought that people would be lead to believe that vaccines will lead to autism.

The episode of Eli Stone is not discussed here, but the link and the court decision are discussed at length.

iRescueRadio 008: Dirty Scrubs, Coffee is Good for You, Top Stories of 2008 and more

Comments:

This episode of iRescueRadio covers the impact of wearing scrubs outside of the hospital, and the disease that resides within those scrubs.

The talk then turns to coffee, as new research is suggesting that coffee is actually good for you.  Or at least better than we had initially thought.

The topic then turns toward health care and check-ups via the internet.

Sleep is next on the agenda, as it is a very valuable part of life, and can help to combat disease.

After that is a long discussion on vaccinations.

All of this and more in this episode of iRescueRadio.  We’ve packed a lot of discussion in this one, and we hope that you enjoy it!
