Aging doesn’t have to mean falling apart. But if you walk into a typical doctor’s office today, chances are you're only getting patched up—not actually fixed.

Dr. Elizabeth Yurth thinks it’s time for a serious shift.

As a double board-certified MD with 30 years in orthopedic and regenerative medicine, Dr. Yurth spent decades treating pro athletes and performing surgeries—until she realized surgery alone wasn’t truly solving the problem. So she flipped the script.

In this episode, she unpacks the science that traditional medicine keeps missing: how to actually heal joints, regenerate cartilage, reboot mitochondrial health, and strengthen the immune system in a toxic world that’s constantly beating it down. Her approach? Go deep on cellular pathways, not just surface-level symptoms.

You’ll hear why osteoarthritis isn’t a wear-and-tear issue, the hidden dangers of loading up on NAD, and why homeostasis—not high or low—is the name of the longevity game.

“If you fix the cell, you fix everything. You fix every disease that's going to happen to you.” ~ Dr. Elizabeth Yurth
