Heart Doc VIP with Dr. Joel Kahn

Understanding IGF-1 and Laron Syndrome


Listen Later

In this episode, Dr. Kahn kicks off with some motivating insights from recent research showing that climbing stairs can lower death rates. He then explores two new studies highlighting the benefits of creatine and roasted green tea (hojicha) for brain performance. Find creatine here: Dr. Joel Kahn's Creatine Capsules.

Dr. Kahn also delves into the roles of growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in health and disease, focusing on Laron Syndrome. This rare condition involves life-long low levels of IGF-1, leading to shorter stature but also lower rates of diabetes, cancer, and heart disease. He discusses how the Prolon Fasting Mimicking Diet and the new L-Protein can help regulate IGF-1 for better health. Check them out here: Prolon FMD by Dr. Kahn.
