Smorgasbord Health Column – Painkillers – Prescribed and Over the Counter – Side Effects and Addiction dangers by Sally Cronin

*Reader’s Note*

Sally Cronin is a contributor of The Writer’s Grapevine Magazine.

Greetings from Health World…

The COVID-19 pandemic took a mighty toll on me and others. Once I realized the impact it had.

I knew I must try and help those reading The Writer’s Grapevine recover as much as I could, and so I began to look for articles which would be useful to us all.

The Smorgasbord Café Blog Magazine has been a great resource of health columns for me over the past few years. I reached out to its author Sally Cronin to see if she might consider becoming a regular contributor to Health World.

She wrote back to say that while she was flattered that I would consider her for my magazine, she just didn’t have the time to do it.

At first, I was disappointed, then inspiration struck.

I wrote back to her and requested permission to use partial columns from her various series with read more links leading to the posts on her blog included and she wrote back with her blessing.

I strongly encourage you to make use of the read more link provided, visit her blog, and read the rest of each one.

My thanks to Sally for the use of her informative work.

Today’s post concerns a health danger which appears to be sweeping the nation as well as countries round the world.

Let’s hand things over to Sally as she shares this important message.
