Dr Karan Rajan: The ‘misinformation takedown king’ on advocating for yourself at the GP

On the latest episode of The Independent’s Well Enough podcast, Emilie Lavinia sat down with Dr. Karan Rajan - NHS surgeon, author, and the internet’s favourite health myth-buster.

They dug into all the topics dominating your social media feeds:

Is "cortisol face" real?

Do you actually have a "leaky gut"?

And is intermittent fasting a miracle cure or a hormonal disaster for women?

Dr. Karan explains why we need to stop treating our bodies like they are broken and start focusing on the unsexy but essential pillars of health.

You can also listen to this episode on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
