Episode #39 – The PLACEBO Effect… The Problem of Self-Medicating – MD Explains All
I think everyone has seen those late-night infomercials claiming to solve some medical issue with a pill or power for three easy payments of $19.99… And you know what, they probably work!

I also went deep into the research to find out what really happens to people who choose DNR status. My findings were surprising and unsettling, to say the least, revealing that some healthcare professionals interpret “do not resuscitate” as “do not treat.”
