Summary
In this episode of "After the Peaks," host Brian Quigley is joined by Dr. Robert Floyd, a board-certified MD and founder of Empowerment Md., who shares his expertise in holistic health and transformation through an integrative approach to healthcare.
The discussion highlights the comprehensive strategies Dr. Floyd employs to address chronic health conditions, emphasizing the importance of nutrition, lifestyle changes, and functional medicine.
Dr. Floyd and Brian explore topics such as the staggering number of metabolically unfit Americans, the alarming prevalence of ultra-processed foods and their links to disease, functional medicine's role in identifying root causes of illness, and the overlooked significance of gut health in overall wellbeing.
