Hi, Dr. Spharmacy listeners. It's Dr. Mark here. If you've been following me, you know that I'm obsessed with understanding the latest research on longevity and how we can apply it to our daily lives.

So I wrote a book about it. Think of it as a roadmap to optimal aging. It's called Young Forever. It's never too early or too late to take control of your health. And this book will show you how.

Coming up on this episode of the doctor's pharmacy. It is the biggest cause of chronic disease period. And it kills more people than anything else. So why aren't we studying it? It's all because of how the system is set up.

Hey everyone, it's Dr. Mark. As a busy doctor with multiple jobs, I'm all about tools that make my life simpler. And since testing is something I rely on to help almost all my patients, I was really excited to learn about root of health.

Hormones, organic acids, nutrient levels, inflammatory factors, and gut bacteria are just some of the many things I look at to find the most effective path to optimal health for my patients.

But that means I'm placing orders through multiple labs, which is just an overall pain. And it also makes keeping track of results more difficult for me and my patients and other doctors.

Roop of health has totally changed that. They've made functional medicine testing simpler and more convenient than ever. So that practitioners like me can focus on helping their patients with root of health, functional medicine,

and practitioners can access more than 2000, especially lab tests from over 20 labs like Dutch, vibrant America, Genova, great planes and more. It's 90% faster, letting you simplify the process of getting the functional tests you need and providing a noticeably better patient experience.

This is really a very much needed option in the functional medicine space that I'm so excited about.

Hi, this is Lauren Fien, one of the producers of the doctor's pharmacy podcast. Today we're bringing you part two of Dr Heimann's conversation with his good friend, business partner and podcast host Drew Proett. I hope you enjoyed that episode.

Mark, welcome back to the podcast. The pleasure to have you here. I want to jump right in. We've done a couple episodes recently where we've talked about food corruption and just how kind of messed up the whole industry is and with big food. You have your own story in this area that you wrote about in the book, food fix, but I'd love for you to share it with our audience here.

Yeah, you know, I think, you know, we don't realize how much the food industry is embedded in our policies in social groups that we think are representing people's best interest like the NAACP or the Hispanic Federation, how much they're infiltrated in professional organizations like the AMA or American Diabetes Association or American American College of Cardiology.

I mean, every single professional organization, social group, policy organization, they're all infiltrated and influenced by the food industry to the tune of Larry millions and millions of dollars. And it's something that sort of happens below the surface and the face of corporate social responsibility example, like it brings my example of something that happened personally to me when I was helping promote the movie fed up, which was about the role of food and sugar in obesity, particularly childhood obesity.

And I expose a lot of the industry issues that were going on and I went to Atlanta and a friend of mine introduced me to Bernie's king, Martin's king's daughter.
