I am delighted to announce that I am starting a PODCAST ! It is called Ask Dr Soram . I expect it will come out weekly with the newest information about Integrative medicine and the practical use of natural medicines to get and stay well.

I have also created a new email address and a new Question Line Voicemail so you can call in your health questions from anywhere in  the world. I know that some of my readers are in many different countries. My answers will not be able to be given directly to one person but rather will generically discuss how I would approach a patient in my office with similar problems

The email to send questions is questions@askdrsoram.com and the call in number which is already activated is 310 499 0275.

Today's' show introduces the podcast and discusses the importance of Vitamin D for knee surgery healing.

The other subject is using the right sunblock and how to choose a good health one.

The EWG link for sunblock review that I mention is HERE and it will show you the best sunblocks that EWG has tested.

I look forward to going forward with you my listeners and readers to expand and enrich your health!
