I am delighted to connect with Dr. Darshan Shah today. He is a health and wellness specialist, a board-certified surgeon, a published author, an entrepreneur, and the founder of Next Health, the world's first and largest health optimization clinic.
In our discussion today, we dive into the current state of U.S. healthcare, contrasting how the traditional allopathic model focuses on acute care and disease treatment with a preventative approach. We cover the health of children and teens, mitochondrial dysfunction, the impact of shift work on circadian rhythms, hormonal regulation through HRT and lifestyle changes, looking at Akkermansia, gut physiology, and the implications of ultra-processed foods. We also explore cutting-edge therapies like IV NAD and exosome treatments.
I am sure you will love this enlightening and informative conversation with Dr. Darshan Shah as much as I did.
