This episode is brought to you by Gut Food, Rupa Health, Athletic Greens, and InsideTracker.   Probiotics are critical to protecting and rebuilding the gut. They compete with bad gut bugs and yeast, modulate intestinal function, and are essential to changing and improving immune function. They are also anti-inflammatory, they help us break down food, and they build nutrients. In this episode of my...

This episode is brought to you by Gut Food, ButcherBox, and Paleovalley. Heart disease is the number-one killer in the world, and it is often thought of as a cholesterol problem. When you take a closer look, however, there are other factors that drive this chronic disease that can’t be fixed by the most commonly prescribed medication: statin drugs. The way you eat, how much you exercise, how you m...

This episode is brought to you by Gut Food, Rupa Health, BiOptimizers, and Beekeeper’s Natural. As humans, we’re natural storytellers. We like telling our friends the funny thing that happened at work, but we’re also really good at making up stories about things that happen in life and applying them to our identity and worldview. We can start believing these stories all too easily. But, they’re ac...

The gut microbiome plays a role in every disease, so why aren’t we doing more to protect and restore it? One third to one half of all Americans have gut issues due to the constant consumption of industrialized foods, glyphosate, food additives, and more. This is a problem—and it’s time for us to take action. In this episode of my Masterclass series, the first in a series on gut health, I am interv...

This episode is brought to you by Mitopure and Levels.   Skin problems like acne, psoriasis, and eczema are often treated with over-the-counter lotions, creams, and potions or even with antibiotics. But while these options may reduce symptoms temporarily, they don't get to the root cause of the problem. In Functional Medicine, we dig deep to determine the underlying cause of skin issues, which oft...

This episode is brought to you by InsideTracker, HigherDOSE, and Rupa Health. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been sharing episodes from my Longevity Roadmap docu-series. We’ve covered how to optimize hormones, eat intentionally, increase and preserve brain function, and create healthy habits—all to help you live as well as possible for as long as possible.  Today, we’re going to help you bring it a...

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, Athletic Greens, and InsideTracker. ​​What you eat literally controls almost every function of your body and mind. Food connects us to one another and to our bodies. At the same time, what we eat is only one “ingredient” needed to make a healthy human. We need real, whole, fresh food, but we also need things like movement, connection, meaning, and pur...

This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens and ButcherBox.   Experiencing feelings of grief is a natural part of the human experience. While it can be difficult to sit with hard feelings such as grief, avoiding our emotions only makes them louder. Through practice, we can learn to accept our feelings in the moment. We can work to break the pattern of being at war with the present moment and...

This episode is brought to you by BiOptimizers, Cozy Earth, and InsideTracker. Our bodies are literally made out of the food we eat. So ask yourself, do you want to be a twinkie or a raspberry? Real, whole foods contain information in the form of vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats, protein, phytonutrients, and fiber. These compounds impact every node of the Functional Medicine matrix, like ou...

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, Paleovalley, and Vuori. Losing our memories and the things that define us is one of the scariest things someone can face. Preserving, supporting, and even strengthening brain function is crucial to optimal aging. This is why, in today’s episode, we explore the underlying cause of brain dysfunction, the fascinating link between your gut and your brain,...

This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens and Rupa Health. Psychedelics have gotten a bad rap. Often associated with the small period of time they became popular in the 1960s, they were researched in clinical, cultural, and spiritual contexts for many decades prior to that. Now we are seeing an uptick in the interest of drugs like this, which include compounds like psilocybin from certain...

This episode is brought to you by InsideTracker and Athletic Greens. Hormones are like a symphony, with each one acting as a specialized instrument to keep our bodies in tune. But as we age, those instruments start to get a little rusty. Small changes over time create a variety of imbalances, until one day we wake up realizing we’re flat and out of tune. This leads to things like menopausal sympto...

This episode is brought to you by ButcherBox, Rupa Health, and InsideTracker. Cancer is a topic that scares just as many people as it directly impacts, which is nearly everyone. While the conventional medicine approach to treating the disease is very important and lifesaving, Functional Medicine takes a slightly different approach. In Functional Medicine, we look below the surface to identify what...

This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens and Paleovalley.   Our current food system is not working. Food waste is at an all-time high, food deserts exist in many neighborhoods, and our produce is falling short in flavor and nutrients. The good news is that innovators in various fields are implementing ideas that promote better access to fresh, nutritious, and tastier food for everyone.  ...

This episode is brought to you by BiOptimizers, Cozy Earth, and Rupa Health. Insulin resistance is a main driver of cardiovascular disease that we don’t hear enough about. Paying attention to our sugar and starch intake, eating plenty of healthy fats and vegetables, and getting enough exercise can all dramatically improve our insulin sensitivity and reduce our risk of heart disease and other metab...

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, InsideTracker, and Pendulum. Aging shouldn’t be something we dread; it should be something we celebrate. Yet, as a society, we are sicker than ever. We are so fixated on keeping people alive longer, but what about keeping people healthier? This is the difference between healthspan and life span. Your life span is how long you live. Your healthspan is...

This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens and Rupa Health.   We are living in an epidemic of chronic disease that is destroying our health, our communities, and our economy. The common denominator between all of these things is food, or more specifically, our food system. The way our food is grown, transported, processed, and consumed is making us sick and driving health disparities relate...

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, InsideTracker, and HigherDOSE. Eighty-eight percent of people are metabolically unhealthy, and since the 1920s we’ve shamed them into believing it’s their fault—that they should just eat fewer calories and exercise more.  But the real culprit is sugar and the processed foods that contain it. The majority of foods on our market shelves contain insane a...

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, Thrive Market, and InsideTracker. In today’s episode, I’ve compiled questions submitted by my social media audience from some of my most popular Masterclass episodes. I am joined by my good friend and podcast host, Dhru Purohit, to discuss a range of topics related to autoimmune disease, optimizing your sleep, and inflammation.  Dhru Purohit is a podc...

This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens and ButcherBox.   For so long, we’ve been told that memory loss and dementia are just normal parts of aging. We now know it doesn’t have to be that way, and that there are many measures we can proactively take to avoid cognitive decline as we age. Emerging research is helping us look at new ways to treat and even prevent devastating neurological di...

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, InsideTracker, and Mitopure. I recently took a life changing trip to Antarctica to see what is really happening to our environment as the result of climate change. Before you roll your eyes or gloss over this episode, I want you to understand this: Climate change is not just floods, droughts, a hotter planet, and deadly weather events, which are all s...
