The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the United States is in the midst of a drug overdose epidemic. In their Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), the CDC reports that last year, overdose killed more than 45-thousand people, most of whom had taken opioids – heroin or prescription medications such as oxycodone. They also report that since 2000, the death rate from overdoses involving opioid pain relievers and heroin increased 200 percent. Mayo Clinic addiction specialist Dr. Jon Ebbert says, “We are in the middle of an opioid crisis. As a society we need to invest more in mental health, and we need to invest more in drug treatment.”
Dr. Ebbert supports the use of naloxone, a medication recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration to reverse opioid overdose. Overdose results when an opioid drug slows a person’s breathing to the point of respiratory failure. “To put it simply, naloxone works by removing the opioid molecules that suppress respiration and helps people breathe again. It wakes them up. I like to say that naloxone revives people, but treatment saves them.”
Dr. Ebbert says opioid medications are often necessary for the proper treatment and management of pain. He believes physicians must assess patients carefully and provide adequate monitoring and follow up for patients on opioid medications. He also encourages easier access to naloxone and the support of effective treatment for people addicted to any type of opioid drug.

Lee Health is a nationally recognized, award-winning health system in Southwest Florida. We are caring people, inspiring health.
It’s a trending phrase—but when we hear or see the words “super foods” health experts say to use caution. “A super food is more of a marketing term for them to basically talk about food that has supposed health benefits for you, whether it’s the nutritional profile of that food or the nutrient density of that food. Since there’s not really a regulatory definition for it people can call anything a super food,” explained Erika Graziani, an outpatient nutrition program coordinator with Lee Health.
There are foods that can give you super health benefits. “Foods you want to lean more towards, of course, they are going to be your whole plant foods because they have phytonutrients. The plant chemicals that offer antioxidants protection, helping fight against inflammation, and those are naturally found in many different plant foods,” said Graziani.
To feel your best, health experts recommend centering each meal around fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, as opposed to meat, or foods that are high in fat. “The beauty of a lot of the whole plant foods is they’ve got a lot of nutritional value. They are packed full of vitamins, minerals, the phytonutrients, the fiber, for not very many calories,” she said.
As you plan your next meal, she recommends sticking to the colors of the rainbow—That’s where you’ll find foods with the most health benefits. “All of those different colors, not only do they have different vitamins, minerals, and things of that nature, a lot of those foods that come from plants are going to be a good source of fiber, which in itself is a great thing,” said Graziani.
Eating foods with too much sugar, fat, and salt can lead to health concerns like inflammation, heart disease, and diabetes—but choosing foods that are good for you will help you feel better and benefit your health long term. Video Rating: / 5

As part of our new “A Day in the Life” series, we met Rook Rampersaud, RN, a nurse in our Cardiothoracic Intensive Care Unit. Rook allowed us to record her during a 12-hour shift to find out what life is really like for a nurse caring for some of our most critical patients. We saw that Rook’s day is fast-moving, but that her knowledge, expertise and compassion for patients have no trouble keeping pace.
