"Hints for Healthful Living" was a segment proposed by Neelix for The Doctor to have in USS Voyager's daily news program, A Briefing with Neelix. Initially disregarding Neelix's request, The Doctor reconsidered after coming up with a few topics of interest. His first topic was going to be called: "How to keep your nostrils happy", followed by "Uncovering the hidden mysteries of the adrenal gland." The Doctor's segment was canceled a third time before he was finally promised an opportunity to present his topic on the Bolian digestive system. (VOY: "Investigations")
