Medical Minute

In this week’s Medical Minute, Dr. Joseph Hobbs, Chair Emeritus of the Department of Family Medicine at the Medical College of Georgia at Augusta University, discusses “Tryptophan”, the amino acid that contributes to our feeling sleepy after the big Thanksgiving meal, but is also key to many other body functions.

The Medical Minute airs at 8:18 a.m., 1:20 p.m., and 5:18 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday on the GPB radio stations across Georgia.  For more Medical Minute episodes, visit the Medical Minute 2021 SoundCloud page.
