Yaktivate.com is pleased to introduce Dr. Joe Prendergast to the world of podcasting. Prendergrast will be hosting a show called The Uncommon doctor, which reflects his practice of using the best of both the traditional world of medicine along with alternative medicine. His podcast is found on www.radioforyourhealth.com, one of the many channels of Yaktivate.com.

Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) July 17, 2008 -- Internationally recognized internist, endocrinologist and medical expert on metabolic syndrome, J. Joseph Prendergast MD launches his podcast show, the Uncommon Doctor, on Yaktivate.com's, RadioforYourHealth channel. The first show, posted July 21st, addresses Strategic Health- "Finding the potential for disease before symptoms manifest themselves" and will relate to the premature and possibly unnecessary death of NBC News anchor Tim Russert.

In Prendergast's new show (found at www.radioforyourhealth.com), he interacts with call-in guests on topics as varied as strokes, heart attacks, heart disease to diabetes and cancer, getting very specific regarding all the health issues that result from high blood pressure, high blood sugar, high cholesterol and resultant cardio-vascular damage. Prendergast shares in detail how he integrates both pharmaceutical and natural or holistic products to achieve the effect that can only be had by taking advantage of the best of all healthcare approaches. Statistically speaking, Prendergast can document a less than ½ of 1% of cardio-vascular events such as stroke or heart attack in his large high risk patient population that have followed his L-Arginine protocol over the last 17 years. This is a truly remarkable success that is without compare.

From early in his career, Prendergast focused on new approaches and techniques to better the quality of patient care which has lead to a continual publishing of medical and scientific papers in publications such as: Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, Diabetes, JAMA, Archives of Internal Medicine, National Library of Medicine NIH, Diabetes Care, New England Journal of Medicine, Journal of Urology, among others.

Dr. Joe, as he likes to be referred to as, lectures extensively to both the lay public and to other healthcare professionals globally. This fall Prendergast will share his research with the 3rd international congress of the Cardiometabolic Association. Prendergast will teach how cardiometabolics affect patients within of each of the 17 specialties comprising the association.

Prendergast was recently named "Father of the Year" by the American Diabetes Association due to his research on how diabetes support positively impacts family relationships. To learn more about Prendergast's medical practice, visit http://www.endocrinemetabolic.com/about/jjp.htm.
