Today’s guest is Maxim Pruchnewski a second year medical student at The Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin. Max is obsessed with human performance and a natural skeptic questioning everything.
In this episode he shares with us the importance of play, social connection, dodging nutritional dogma, theories surrounding atherosclerosis and cholesterol, sun exposure, and approaching life with a spirit of exploration.
Max goes deep into the pathophysiological processes underlying atherosclerosis, ultimately leading to heart disease.
After elaborating on the things which clearly do not make much sense to him in the lipid hypothesis of atherosclerosis, he goes on presenting an alternative hypothesis, which should not be regarded to as an entirely new hypothesis since there is actually a lot of evidence backing up all these underlying processes.
Over the course of the conversation Max extensively refers to the work of Dr. Malcolm Kendrick. Dr. Kendrick's work was clearly very influential to the way Max's perception of atherosclerosis has evolved over the years.
In the second part we discuss the things that would probably have the greatest impact on reducing heart disease and thus prolonging your life.
