Dr. Darshan Shah is a board-certified surgeon, longevity physician, entrepreneur, and founder of Next Health. After performing more than 20,000 surgeries and training at the Mayo Clinic, Darshan realized something most people never hear from the medical system: treating disease is not the same as creating health.

In this episode, he shares the personal health crisis that changed his life, the longevity pyramid he uses with patients, the key biomarkers and scans to know before disease appears, why muscle and metabolic health matter so much, how toxins and hormone disruption are affecting people earlier than ever, and what hyper-preventive medicine may look like in the years ahead.
