Vitality launches new health podcast
Vitality has just dropped a new podcast series with Vitality Clinical ambassador, GP and broadcaster Dr Punam Krishan, bringing together expert insight, lived experience and practical health advice to help everyone, not just Vitality members, better understand their health and wellbeing.
The series, titled The Good Health Edit is available exclusively on YouTube and has been developed to cut through misinformation and make health topics more accessible, supporting people to feel informed and confident about taking preventative action and seeking support when they need it. Through open and reassuring conversations, the podcast, which will be released fortnightly on Tuesdays, explores some of the health issues people are most commonly navigating, from women's health and parenting to nutrition, stress and emotional wellbeing.
The first episode, available now and sees Dr Punam speaking directly to the viewer about her own personal experience of receiving a cancer diagnosis, exploring what happens when a clinician becomes a patient and why recognising changes in your health and seeking advice early can make a difference. The episode also offers reassurance around the patient journey and the support available following a diagnosis.
Upcoming episodes will feature wellbeing advocate and content creator Chessie King discussing parent and child health; NHS GP and leading women's health expert Dr Anita Mitra exploring women's health; registered nutritionist and published author Kristen Stavridis examining nutrition, gut health and healthy eating habits; and author and mind-body connection specialist Dr David Hamilton discussing stress and emotional wellbeing.
Dr Katie Tryon, Deputy CEO VitalityHealth said: "At Vitality, we know that prevention starts with understanding. Working alongside Dr Punam Krishan, a highly respected GP, broadcaster and Vitality Clinical Ambassador, we're helping make trusted health information more accessible. Through this series, we're bringing together leading experts to cut through misinformation, encourage earlier engagement with health concerns and give people the confidence to take proactive steps to improve their long-term wellbeing."
Dr Punam Krishan said: "One of the biggest challenges in healthcare today is helping people navigate the sheer volume of information available. This series is about creating space for clear, honest conversations that help people better understand their health without fear or overwhelm. Working with Vitality has given me a unique opportunity to combine clinical expertise with real-life experiences to help people feel informed, reassured and empowered to take small, positive steps towards better health."
