How far can a body really go without sleep? After the P. Diddy verdict and trial, we have to talk about what happens when someone is pushed to the edge - five days awake, no breaks, and the fallout that follows. We’ll break down what’s fact, what’s fiction, and why missing sleep is more than just feeling tired. Join us LIVE on Monday, July 7th at noon (EST) for Celebrity Health Headlines with Dr. Frita!

Next, let’s get real about weight loss in the spotlight. Lizzo and Khloé Kardashian have both shared their journeys, but what’s actually healthy, and what’s just hype? We’ll look at their routines, the science behind their choices, and the pressure to keep the weight off when the world is watching. Is eating before 5 PM really a magic trick, or just another trend? And why does the finish line for weight loss always seem to move?

And, with summer heating up, we’re talking about the difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke, plus simple ways to stay safe when the summer temperatures climb. We've got this plus a whole lot more!

You're catching this Health Happy Life podcast replay at the perfect time, especially with everything swirling around the Diddy trial right now. I spent this past Monday breaking down the medical reality behind what we're seeing unfold in those courtroom testimonies, and honestly? The connections between PTSD and domestic violence run deeper than most people realize.

Since June marks PTSD Awareness Month, we couldn't ignore how this high-profile case spotlights trauma's ripple effects. But here's what really gets me fired up: the myths people still believe about trauma responses. We're setting the record straight on that.

Billy Joel's recent tour cancellation opened up another crucial conversation about normal pressure hydrocephalus. Why are we missing these signs so often? The symptoms masquerade as "normal aging," but they're anything but normal.

Then there's this eye-opening cannabis study that's got everyone talking about heart health warnings. Should we be concerned? I'm walking you through what the research actually tells us.

And Kandi Burruss sharing her family's Alzheimer's journey? That hits different when you understand how this disease reshapes entire family dynamics, not just one person's life.

Did you know that every minute, 20 Americans experience some form of physical abuse from someone they love? That's wild, right? This Monday on Medical Mondays, we're diving headfirst into the P. Diddy trial and Cassie situation, tackling the tough questions about domestic abuse and why victims often stay. We're gonna bust some myths, lay down the facts, and talk about the long-term effects of trauma. Speaking of truth bombs, Joe Biden has announced that he has an aggressive form of prostate cancer. What does this mean, and what can we learn from this? RFK Jr. just told Congress not to take medical advice from him about vaccines. Did he just flip-flop on us? 🤔

Plus, a truly heart-wrenching story about a brain-dead pregnant woman kept alive due to Georgia's heartbeat law. Who should make these tough calls? Families, doctors, or lawmakers? And you know there will be much more ‘medical tea!’ So, grab your lunch, and let's have an open, honest conversation.
