Dr Jalal Khan is one of Australia’s leading quantum health clinicians as well as a practicing dentist. In this fascinating conversation we cover Jalal’s thoughts on the centrality of circadian biology to health, why diet-only health paradigms lack the complete picture, role of mitochondrial dysfunction and disease, pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), melanin and much more.
