Dr. La Puma joins Dr. Gundry in the studio to discuss his new book, The Indoor Epidemic. All the chemicals in your home are silently driving brain fog, burnout, insomnia, and chronic disease. Discover why 93% of your life spent indoors is destroying your health — and the surprising fix.
Most people blame stress, aging, or bad genetics when they feel exhausted, foggy, and off. But what if the real problem isn’t inside your body — it’s the building you’re sitting in right now?
In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Gundry sits down with Dr. John La Puma, author of the new book Indoor Epidemic, to uncover a health crisis hiding in plain sight. The conversation reveals a shocking statistic about how much of our lives we spend sealed indoors — and what that’s doing to our sleep, our immunity, our hormones, and even our brain’s ability to think clearly.

But Indoor Epidemic Now! – https://a.co/d/0gChKoGC
You’ll learn why a common light source is suppressing a critical sleep hormone by a staggering percentage, what "digital obesity" is and why it’s burning out your brain the same way sugar burns out your metabolism, and the surprisingly small amount of time it takes outdoors to begin reversing the damage.
Dr. La Puma shares a protocol from his book that anyone can start immediately — no gym, no gadgets, no supplements required. And Dr. Gundry reveals the most unusual prescription he’s ever written for his patients — one that several have framed and hung on their walls.
The two doctors also dig into why your sealed home may be tanking your cognitive performance, the household products silently disrupting your hormones, and a powerful connection between a common outdoor hobby and dramatically lower rates of cognitive decline.
This is one of those conversations that makes you rethink your entire daily routine.
