Welcome to the Fundamental Health Podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Paul Saladino. This

0:10.6

podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand and correct the roots of chronic

0:15.1

disease and illness. In this podcast, I will share with you everything I have learned

0:18.9

about how to live the most healthy and radical life possible. Thanks for joining me on this

0:23.4

journey.

0:27.2

What is up you guys? I was recently on another podcast and the host asked me about my history

0:34.2

and where I've come from and I said, you know what? I think when I actually consider

0:39.9

that question, I am an explorer, a surfer who accidentally went to medical school twice.

0:47.8

I think that I've just been so fortunate to do a lot of amazing things in my life to spend

0:52.6

time in beautiful places, in the wilderness, in the mountains, skiing powder, climbing

1:26.7

that question on the podcast, that is a reason that I do what I do. That is the reason that

1:31.8

I think about how human health, because what more interesting puzzle is there than how

1:39.0

to help all of us be as optimally healthy as possible. That is the lens through which

1:44.3

we experience the world. That is the lens through which we experience life. And I have been

1:49.2

so fortunate to have so many beautiful, memorable, incredible experiences with friends and family,

1:56.3

in my own good health and in the wilderness that I just want to share all of that with you.

2:01.9

And so I hope this podcast brings you value. And I hope that what we're doing at Harden
