The Health Equation Blog & Podcast
Mr Gerry Gajadharsingh DO, Osteopath and Diagnostic Consultant in Integrated Medicine, has been writing The Health Equation Blog since 2014. The website now contains a growing archive of more than 450 articles, covering medical and health-related research, osteopathy, respiratory regulation, nutrition and integrated medicine.
Drawing on nearly 40 years of clinical practice, Gerry reviews emerging research, considers its relevance to patients and clinical care, and places new findings within a broader, whole-person perspective.
Each article begins with “Gerry Gajadharsingh writes”. In this introduction, Gerry places the research in context, explains its potential significance and translates complex scientific information into clear, practical language for patients, clinicians and the wider public.
Selected introductions are also recorded as short podcast episodes, allowing you to listen while travelling or at your convenience.
