In this unscripted deep dive, Altamash and Darsh tackle the overlooked but increasingly relevant topic of microplastics—what they are, how they affect our bodies, and what practical steps we can take to reduce exposure. From water filtration and air quality to household hacks and consumer habits, they explore the intersection of environmental toxins, chronic disease, and health optimization. Plus, the conversation veers into everything from sauna myths and visceral fat to book abandonment and the art of communication. A curious, wide-ranging discussion grounded in evidence and everyday life.
