So…I thought I would surf the web today and see what the big health topics of the day are. I decided to check out Oprah and Dr. Oz, but I was most interested to check out the website for the tv show, ‘The Doctors” to see what people are buzzing about these days. I have to admit, I was a little let down. Here I was expecting a website featuring an ER physician and other medical professionals to be chock full of good, solid health information that would tackle the top health concerns today but instead I found topics like: ‘Does your wife need to Groom “down there?”’,’ How to hit the gym for a better orgasm’ and ‘Mother nature’s Viagra’. Ugh!
Now I’m not saying these aren’t interesting topics but I would likely find the same articles in this month’s issue of Cosmopolitan. I was particularly disappointed to find these topics in lieu of more timely and needed information like ‘How to prevent a heart attack’, ‘How often should I get screened for colon cancer’ or the like. I would have even settled for a blurb on ‘How to get fit with yoga’ but I was out of luck.
I suppose those big producers know what they are doing, however, or they would not publish and air the stories they do. What kind of health information do you like to read about most? Drop me a line at
info@empoweredmedicine.com and let me know. I would love to hear from you.
