Albany, NY – In 2005, over 4000 Americans died while waiting for a kidney transplant. As the wait for a life saving donor gets longer, some are going to greater lengths to improve their odds. On Today's Health Show, we'll hear about an investigation on the buying and selling of kidneys in India.

Then we'll get into the holiday spirit. Well, you know, that Health Show kind of holiday spirit, where we warn you not to overindulge in all the cookies and candies and you pretty much ignore us. And our weight loss story teller laments that keeping a healthy weight is not a piece of cake.
