    🎙️ New episode of Courageous Doctors is here! Dr. Barry Prystowsky breaks down this month's biggest healthcare headlines: a new COVID strain (BA 3.2, nicknamed "cicada") is spreading with flu-like symptoms, though hospitalizations remain low.

    Big focus on Medicaid changes — new work requirements, coverage losses, and the financial ripple effects hitting hospitals, doctors' offices, and families nationwide, with millions of adults and kids at risk of losing coverage. Plus: Trump's new CDC and FDA leadership picks, drug pricing reforms, EPA research into microplastics and forever chemicals, and a fresh look at psychedelic therapy trials.

    On the safety side, a big recall roundup covers salmonella, E. coli, glass, metal, and undeclared allergens found in everyday brands from Costco to Walmart to Trader Joe's — plus tips on spotting spoiled deli meat and avoiding travel tummy troubles. Wrapping up with health nuggets on Crohn's disease research, cholesterol testing guidelines, teen cannabis use and brain development, and the surprising benefits of raisins, cabbage, and morning routines.
