Monday, September 21, 2009 on the Doctor Ira Breite Show on Sirius 114 and XM 119: Doctor Radio!


Monday morning. New work week. No more weekend. Kids whining about school. But there is a bright side, and that is the excellent show that we have planned for this Monday!

Celiac Disease. We talk about it all the time on the show. And we have had some of the world's experts on the line. There is a new study out talking about Celiac Disease and its effect on Mortality. The results of the study may surprise you, so you'll have to listen. Joining me to talk about this is Dr. Peter Green, an expert on Celiac Disease and the author of an editorial that accompanies the study.

If you are worried about Celiac Disease, its diagnosis or treatment, give us a call at 1-877-NYU-DOCS.

Can exercise make you smarter? I hope, as I've been trying to do more of it recently. Joining the show to discuss this is Dr. Charles Hillman, from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. At the end of this segment you may be asking your doctor if they exercise before allowing them to treat you!

Germs!!!! I have a healthy respect for them, but is the rest of the media going a little nuts on the subject. Phillip Tierno, PhD, the Director of Clinical Microbiology here at NYU and the author of "The Secret Life of Germs" will weigh in on this topic.

Wondering whether an air filter will protect your family. Feel you need to shower after taking a shower? Give us a call at 1-877-NYU-DOCS!

Of course, we will have a full segment of Ask Dr. Ira, where you can ask me any question on any medical topic at all and I will be glad to answer you. Call me at 1-877-NYU-DOCS.
