Does Beano cancel the benefits of beans?

869. Beans are gut health gold -- but the same compounds that feed your microbiome are also what cause the gas. So when you take an enzyme supplement like Beano to tame the bloat, are you undermining the benefit? Monica has a more reassuring answer than you might expect.

How to avoid summer weight gain in kids

School's out, the days are long, and summer should be the healthiest time of year for kids — more time outside, more fresh produce, more freedom to move. So why do so many children actually gain excess weight during summer vacation? In this episode, Monica breaks down a counterintuitive but increasingly well-documented trend: for many kids, especially those who are already overweight, summer is actually the riskiest season for unhealthy weight gain. And she walks through five practical, family-friendly strategies to turn that around before the school bell rings again. Encore Episode: This episode originally aired on June 24, 2015.

Can you reverse gray hair? Here’s what the science says

866. The market is suddenly full of products claiming to prevent or even reverse gray hair — not by dyeing it, but by actually changing what's happening inside the hair follicle. Some of these serums, supplements, and "anti-gray systems" are backed by genuinely interesting science. Others are getting way ahead of the evidence. Today, Monica breaks down the biology of why hair goes gray, what ingredients show the most promise (and for whom), and which products are banking more on your hope than on clinical proof.
