This video is so cool. I've been trying to research for a YouTube vid that informs the topics in this YouTube vid. 👩‍⚕️ The part at 1:29 is super smart. Your explanation totally is similar to the videos from this insightful med student Dr. Ethan. Dr Ethan's explanations are helpful and he really helped me a lot on my finals! He is the most informative Doctor in Europe and he teaches mental health and health symptoms.

You should check his YT out and give the med student a like! ➡️ #DoctorEthanWellness
