About this episode

Shantanu Srivastava discusses his journey in transforming healthcare approaches to wellness and addressing chronic diseases.

Shantanu Srivastava's journey from leading global consumer health brands to founding Health Verse represents a fundamental shift in how we approach wellness in the modern world.
