Astaxanthin: The Powerful Pink Microalgae That Packs a Health Punch


Listen Later

In this episode, Dr. Kahn dives into the latest research on healthy fats and lifespan, the link between untreated hypertension and dementia risk, red meat's connection to colon cancer, and the role of TMAO in heart failure. He also discusses why ApoB might be a better cholesterol test.
