Get to know our guest:
Dr. Howard J. Luks is an orthopedic surgeon in New York for 25 years. He studied the root causes of why people aren’t aging well, chronic pains, and their connections to metabolic health. His book “Longevity… Simplified” gives people simple, actionable advice to be metabolically healthy.

“There is a root cause for many of the chronic diseases that are going to come for us. I wanted to get across the concept that these diseases are area under the curve issues that they are often interrelated and can complement or worsen each other's presence. And I want to keep people out of rabbit holes at a strict elimination diet away from buying supplements that aren't going to work or sweating and throwing up on a peloton. So, I wanted to provide them with really a simple, actionable advice.” - Dr. Howard J. Luks
