About HealthGuru.com
HealthGuru.com is the leading destination site for health video on the web (comScore Video Metrix, November 2010). Our unique approach to health education was developed specifically for the video audience and is differentiated in three key ways: HealthGuru.com focuses on the health topics that matter most to today's audience, including: diet & fitness, mental & emotional health, sexual health, pregnancy, baby health & childcare, beauty & grooming, drugs & alcohol, and more. The modern health consumer seeks out an immersive, rich media experience on the web, not the text-centric offerings commonly found on other health sites. Health Guru was created with cutting edge media -- like the largest health video library on the web and interactive applications -- so we can offer the experience our audience expects.
