The latest blog entry: November 20, 2024 yoga and Back pain I read health journals from organizations like The American Medical Association, Lancet, New England Journal of Medicine and many others. When I find a set of journal articles that may be of general interest I try to summaries them into a short article in layman's terms. I always add a link to at least one of the journals I have summarized. This way medical people who read the post can see the basic document. I try to pick journal articles that can be accessed by layman.
