In past episodes, we’ve stressed the importance of Macronutrients for health.  But in this episode, Dr. Ed and Liz outline how Micronutrients can be the difference between life and death for some patients.  We investigate how to best renourish someone after starvation - including how to avoid the sudden death danger of Refeeding Syndrome.  We follow the story of “Diana,” who, if it weren’t for the dogged advocacy of her doctors, her family, and herself, would have succumbed to that Syndrome.  In addition, we discuss the surprising nutritional value of skim milk, the Burgundy famine of 1033, and a popular reality tv show.  Somehow, all of those things relate to this week’s topic, we promise!“Refeeding Syndrome in Historical Perspective” Article discussed in Episode:https://biomedgrid.com/pdf/AJBSR.MS.ID.001643.pdfSocial Media: Instagram: @edonedpodcastProfessional Email: [email protected]
