For that matter, what's really in them?  Join Sarah Erush, PharmD, BCPS, the Pharmacy Clinical Manager and Residency Director of the Pharmacy Residency Program at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia as we talk about dietary supplements in kids.

Have you ever seen a set of twins, swore they were identical, and then be told by the parents that they weren't.  Well, it turns out you may have been right.  Join me and Dr. Jeffrey Craig, PhD of the University of Melbourne's Australian Twin Registry as we talk about a new study showing that, if the sex is the same, identical twins should be considered.  Conversely, just because twins look alike doesn't mean that they are.
