Dr. Gundry and Dr. Shah reveal why you MUST measure toxins to become the CEO of your own health and achieve longevity. Living in a toxic world is unavoidable, but Dr. Shah explains how knowing your personal toxic exposures can reduce your body’s burden by up to 95%. Learn how advanced testing—like the urine toxin test —is the critical fourth pillar of health, alongside sleep, nutrition, and exercise, and why minimizing toxic exposure is becoming more important in lifestyle medicine. Discover the invisible threat of accumulated toxins and why simply avoiding them isn’t enough.
In the full episode, Dr. Gundry and Dr. Darshan Shah delve into Next Health’s hyper-preventative model, contrasting it with traditional medicine that only reacts to disease. They detail the importance of becoming the CEO of your own health by tracking 10 to 15 critical biomarkers, such as fasting serum insulin and homocysteine, to spot and reverse disease decades before it manifests. The conversation centers on building health from the ground up, emphasizing lifestyle and functional medicine (nutrition, sleep, gut health, stress, and toxins) as the necessary foundation before incorporating advanced longevity therapies like peptides or plasma exchange, which Dr. Gundry refers to as "the cherry on top".
