In the second episode of Health As We Know It, presented by Abbott, our host Divyam Tripathi and two panelists discuss why we need to shift the way we look at and prioritize muscles in our efforts to lead healthier lives. Busting the myth that muscles are only for body builders and gym rats, these experts highlight the crucial role muscles play in ensuring most fundamental bodily functions – like mobility, immunity and recovery from illness 

Starting at age 40, adults can lose up to 8% of their muscle mass per decade, and this rate can double after the age of 70. Breaking this down and simplifying the concept and role of muscles for us is - Dr. B. Ravinder Reddy, consultant surgeon division of surgical Gastroenterology and general surgery care hospital in Banjara Hills Hyderabad. He is the president Indian society of parenteral and enteral, nutrition ISP and parenteral and enteral nutrition Society of Asia. He is the panel member for the World Health Organization's guidelines for nutritional support in hospitalized patients in the Southeast Asian region.

And our second guest is Mrs. Yasmin Karachiwala, a fitness instructor, and one of the most popular celebrity trainers in Bollywood. She is also the recipient of prestigious awards like the Giants and rotary awards and more, for her contribution to health and fitness.

Health As We Know It, presented by Abbott, is a series of conversations with doctors, patients, industry leaders and tech innovators bringing new ideas and ingenuity to Healthcare and Medicine - opening up a window into the future of Health-Tech and healthcare solutions.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
