In this episode we talk about natural remedies, vitamins and immune boosters which should not be called that. We answer questions from friends and families about Vitamin C, Zinc, honey, elderberry and Dr.Aimee and Dr. Toni battle it out about Vicks vapor rub! Too much of anything is not good and none is a substitute for good nutrition, good sleep habits and regular exercise and vaccines for those illnesses that we know we can prevent.
Talk to your doctor! This podcast is not a replacement for a conversation with your provider!
