In this episode, I interview Dr. Fritz Siegert to discuss two articles recently published on the topic of chocolate and coronary artery disease. Dr. Siegert helps to break down the article and provides helpful tips for preventing coronary artery disease. I explain some basic statistical terms and provides tips for evaluating information sources on the web.
