Part 1 Medical work in Nepal and Part 2 Problems Arising from Fad Diets and Processed Foods
Today Roberta Hall hosts a two-part Health and Health Care Forum.
In part one we hear Marie Long, a neurosurgeon who did volunteer medical work at Tribuvan Hospital, Nepal, and developed a project to prevent neurological diseases that have afflicted some Nepali people.
At 11:30 in part two the guest is Nancy Sullivan, a registered dietitian who uses nontraditional methods to understand and help clients with gastrointestinal problems. In this conversation we talk about difficulties in interpreting symptoms and problems that can arise with fad diets and with additives in commercially prepared foods.
