72. Dr. Frank Lipman: The Benefits of Functional Medicine For Preventing Disease


Listen Later

Western medicine is commonly used for crisis care and helping acutely ill patients, but there are alternative therapies that should be considered for day-to-day problems that most people have. 


In this episode of The Well Drop podcast, we are joined by Dr. Frank Lipman – a pioneer and internationally recognized expert in integrative and functional medicine, founder and director of the Eleven Eleven Wellness Center, and chief medical officer of The Well in New York City. We discuss combining Western medicine with traditional Chinese medicine to personalize treatments. Our conversation shares tools that help measure, monitor, and prevent disease. Overall, we emphasize the daily rituals you can implement at home from mind-body connection and prebiotics to time-restricted-eating and wearable technology.


Dr. Frank Lipman has practiced medicine for over 40 years to promote lasting health and longevity. His passion is helping patients discover their personal path to a long and healthy life. Dr. Lipman has written 7 top-selling books, including The New Rules of Aging Well and How to Be Well



What we discuss:

  • Prebiotics vs. probiotics
  • Acupuncture for optimizing function in the body
  • Time-restricted-eating, homedic stress, and autophagy
  • Personalized genetic testing, blood tests, wearables and more
  • Longevity lifestyle factors
  • The detriment of packaged foods
