In this episode, we speak with Prince Bhojwani from ASANA Voices (@asanavoices). We dive into a topic that's a little out of left field for this podcast: heart health! But as Prince walks us through, South Asians have a big problem with hearth health, and relevant legislation to increase research in this area has unfortunately been stymied in Congress (the South Asian Heart Health Awareness and Research Act). What's the big deal, and what does it say about minority communities and health?
