Although I was trained, like most doctors, to view heart disease and prostate cancer and alzheimer's disease and high blood pressure and high cholesterol as being fundamentally different from each other, they're really different manifestations of the same underlying disease processes: chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, changes in the microbiome, changes in gene expression, changes in telomeres and so on.
Have you ever wondered how chronic inflammation might be the hidden culprit behind many of your health issues? In this episode of 'American Medicine Today', Dr. Alfred Bonati, Kimberly Bermel, and Ethan Youker take a closer look at the unifying theory of chronic diseases. They discuss how factors like oxidative stress, microbiome changes, gene expression, and telomeres all play a part in chronic illnesses. The conversation doesn’t stop there.
The hosts also explore how stress impacts our overall health and share practical techniques such as stretching, breathing exercises, meditation, and imagery to help manage it. On top of that, they delve into the role of diet in chronic diseases, with a special focus on the benefits of a plant-based diet for both personal health and the environment. To bring these concepts to life, the episode features a compelling personal recovery story, emphasizing the importance of proper medical care.
The hosts also touch on political and social issues within healthcare, shedding light on how these factors influence individual well-being. This episode is packed with valuable information and thoughtful discussions, making it a must-listen for anyone looking to take a more holistic approach to their health.
