Doctor-Approved: Debunking Desi Health Myths


Listen Later

Cold water did not cause that. Haldi cannot cure everything. And yogurt at night is not the villain we were raised to believe it is.

In Part 1 of our Desi health series we are joined by our first ever doctor guest to break down the Desi health myths we all grew up hearing. From food fears to body rules passed down by aunties and WhatsApp forwards.

We separate fact from fiction talk about where these beliefs came from and share what science actually says. All with honesty humor and zero shame.

Stay tuned for Part 2 where we dive deeper into women’s health and modern wellness.
