On this episode, Dr. Alejandro Younger, a cardiologist, pioneer in functional medicine, 3x NYT bestseller and author of "CLEAN 7," shares his journey from traditional cardiologist to holistic healer. When Dr. Junger, was a young adult undergoing his medical training, he went through what too many people often experience: multiple, seemingly unrelated yet compounding, health issues. He soon found himself in a chaotic state of being over-medicated, unimproved, and totally out of balance with the natural rhythms of his own body. With an intuition that an undetermined cause lay at the root, he set out on a journey to find a better solution to his myriad of ailments. Eager to find an answer, he cast aside typical boundaries between Eastern versus Western medicine and ancient wisdom versus modern science. In this episode, he discusses the importance of detoxification and how his program can reset the body and improve mental clarity- not to mention drastically increase life expectancy. Dr. Junger also discusses his perspective on the appropriate diet, the challenges of being a vegan, intermittent fasting and detoxification, and the overwhelming importance of intestinal health.
