Dr Xand van Tulleken on the Complex World of Wellness
Q: What tips or advice can you give someone who struggles with health anxiety and fears illness?

Dr Xand van Tulleken on the Complex World of Wellness
Q: Is there any hope or advice for anybody with inflammation problems when it comes to arthritis?
Van Tulleken says movement and strength-building can help, because pain may come from tissues around the joint and exercise can reduce inflammation. He also notes that CBT may help people live with chronic pain and uncertainty.
Q&A: Midlife Rage - What’s Making You Mad?
Q: Should I still be doing my university-age son's laundry?
Jo and Zoe recommend finding a compromise that helps him become independent while keeping the visits worthwhile, such as asking him to learn laundry or make time for his mother in return.
Q&A: Midlife Rage - What’s Making You Mad?
Q: Why do shops rearranging their aisles bother me so much?
Zoe relates to the frustration, saying she depends on familiar supermarket layouts to shop quickly, while Jo describes being less tolerant of changes and routines being disrupted.
EXCLUSIVE Bridget Phillipson MP & Mariella Frostrup: Menopause, Misogyny & Missing School
Q: What could change most immediately to affect change?
Frostrup points to the underfunding of female-specific medical research and argues that women's health must become a priority. She also calls for greater trust in women's accounts of their symptoms and improved access to appropriate care.
