CNN Sept. 30 released the trailer for “Body Language by CNN,” a new streaming series hosted by CNN anchor and chief investigative correspondent Pamela Brown launching Oct. 8 with four episodes exclusively online at CNN All Access. Four additional episodes will premiere in November.
The series aims to look at the uncomfortable, unspoken and sometimes absurd health experiences that shape women’s lives byspotlighting health stories that are often overlooked.
The first episode, “The Zone of Chaos: Perimenopause,” focuses on a transition that can begin years before menopause, whose average onset age in the U.S. is 51. With symptoms sometimes emerging as early as the 30s, a collective of women explains what the body and the mind go through during this often-confusing stage and what can be done about it.
“When I experienced postpartum OCD after the birth of my second child a few years ago, I was searching for answers, and for a community I could relate to and learn from. I struggled to find the right reen deeply invested in demystifying and reporting the facts on the many under-discussed health issues we experience as women.”
Additional episodes will explore a range of health topics including egg freezing, GLP-1s, PMOS (Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome, formerly PCOS), Alzheimer’s disease, breast reductions, thyroid diseases, and the 4th trimester.
“Pamela brings great empathy and her trademark candor to these timely health topics that need to be discussed,” said Ben Weltman, VP, VOD, streaming and podcasts. “Body Language reflects our commitment to distinctive video on demand programming that informs audiences while speaking directly to their lived experiences.”
