Take charge of your health today. Be informed. Be involved….Vitamins and ­Supplements

EB: Our bodies are really complex, aren’t they?
JJ: They certainly are! As Dr. Berenbrok discusses in the overview, it’s important to talk to a health care professional, whether that’s your primary care physician, nurse or a pharmacist. They can answer questions and give you advice about the vitamins and supplements that you should take or may not even need. They’ll be able to assess your medical history and your current prescriptions to make sure that you don’t have any harmful reactions. They will also be able to help you with making healthy lifestyle choices.
EB: Those are wonderful things to know Jennifer. What are we talking about next month?
JJ: Next month we are talking about a delicate topic – drugs. There’s a lot research happening in our city, and many people are affected by this horrible epidemic. As always, thank you for your time.
