#12 What the Health?!

Listen Later

Ellie and Rhiannon discuss Pregnancy test for the Blind and MiRemedy to highlight some topics around health that are often not talked about.

That Bright Idea is a podcast all about innovation and this week we talk about innovation in terms of health! There are so many taboo topics around health and specifically women's health that simply do not need to be. We discuss some ideas that are leading the way into an open and honest future!

What is in store:

  • Easter highlights: Heatwave hits Scotland and boiled eggs are crumbling in Shrewsbury!
  • What's the problem? Why are women's health problems often overlooked.
  • Pregnancy test for the blind: a prototype has been developed that allowed the results of a pregnancy test to be felt rather than seen so that women with visual impairments can be the first to know what is happening to their bodies.
  • Special guest: Sophia from MiRemedy tells us about her herbal remedies for period pain.
  • Algae fact: Ellie tells about the magical powers of seaweed! Phone in/Note to Self: Peter O'Brien from PARIS asks us about endometriosis.

    • Want to find out more about the brilliant initiatives we mention?
