Dr. Xand van Tulleken is back this Tuesday with a new episode of “Dr Xand’s Con or Cure,” tackling a range of health concerns that affect millions. In this episode, he turns his attention to the booming market for arthritis supplements, asking the tough questions about their effectiveness for the eight million people in the UK living with the condition.
Next up, it’s whooping cough, a disease on the rise, causing concern amongst parents and health professionals alike. Dr. Xand aims to clear up any confusion around whooping cough vaccinations, explaining who needs them and why. Finally, in a segment sure to get people talking, Dr. Xand addresses a surprisingly common question: what’s a healthy number of bowel movements per day? He’ll separate fact from fiction, offering practical advice in his typically straightforward style.
Along with co-host Ashley John-Baptiste, Dr. Xand continues his mission to expose “bad medicine” and empower viewers to make informed decisions about their health. Tune in to BBC One on Tuesday, 22 April at 10:15 AM for a dose of straight talk and medical myth-busting.
