SPEAKER AND SUBJECT –Dr. Craig Zalvan – Maintaining your voice
SUMMARY OF TALK
Dr. Zalvan explained the important facts of maintaining your voice. He expressed ideas that some of us never realized were important. Acid reflux leads to gastro esophageal reflux disease, known as GERD. Among the voice disorders that cause problems are chronic smoking, yelling, dehydration, aging and vocal fatigue. Everyone has some degree of post nasal drip and gargling will not help. What will help is maintaining a healthy weight. Many Americans have poor diets. Common sense will help with potential voice problems. No antibiotics should be given for voice problems. It is never too late to deal with voice problems. You can contact Dr. Zalvan by email with any questions at, CZalvan@pmhc.us .
Next Friday – Pakistan, Kashmir and US Security concerns – Dr. Krishnan Chittur
