Are we becoming healthier—or just more anxious about being unhealthy?In this episode of Podcast With Aashi, Aarushi Vig sits down with Rakesh Sharma for a practical conversation on self-medication, Google-led self-diagnosis, antibiotic misuse, supplements, health anxiety, habits, lifestyle and the idea of looking “beyond medicine.”===========Guest Suggestion Form: https://forms.gle/aBD5CgQwhoBfMMBc9===========Rakesh shares his recovery after a serious 2012 accident and explains how that experience, along with his long pharmaceutical career and study of psychology, shaped his book “दवा से आगे…रोग से स्वास्थ्य तक.” The conversation explores why medicines should not become the automatic answer to every symptom, why antibiotic misuse matters, how habits can overpower willpower, what “healthy” means beyond being disease-free, and why commercial “detox” claims deserve scrutiny.Important health note: This episode is for general awareness and contains personal views and experiences. It is not medical advice. Preventive screening, tests, medicines and supplements can be appropriate depending on age, risk factors and clinical context—please consult a qualified medical professional for individual guidance.Podcast with Aashi – Jahaan baatein hoti hain dil se ❤️============Guest Info:Rakesh SharmaAuthor: “दवा से आगे…रोग से स्वास्थ्य तक”Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rakesh_srm============Timestamps -00:00 - Preview01:19 - Meet Rakesh Sharma01:42 - Accident, Surgeries & Recovery05:02 - Why He Wrote “Dawa Se Aage”06:36 - Health Awareness, Google & Self-Diagnosis08:00 - Do We Over-Test Our Health?09:35 - Vitamin D/B12 & Self-Treatment11:36 - Antibiotics & Self-Medication15:25 - Reused Cooking Oil & Street Food17:37 - Feeling Sick Despite Normal Reports20:12 - What Lies Beyond Medicine?22:04 - Habits vs Willpower25:14 - Pollution, Food Quality & Organic Food31:41 - Gummies, Collagen & Supplements34:29 - Changing Doctors & Health Anxiety39:01 - Mental Health, Counselling & Emotions42:51 - What Does a Healthy Lifestyle Mean?47:29 - Sedentary Living & Fitness Obsession52:35 - Discipline Without a 5 AM Routine54:56 - Detox & “100% Natural” Myths59:13 - Disease-Free vs Overall Well-Being01:00:31 - Advice to His 2012 Self01:01:16 - Inside “Dawa Se Aage”01:04:18 - Closing Message============About Aarushi VigAarushi Vig, the founder of Podcast With Aashi, this podcast is driven by meaningful conversations that inform, inspire, and create awareness.
