Today's episode is round two with the extraordinary Dr. Stephen Gundry.

0:04.5

He's a New York Times best-selling author of The Plant Paradox, and most recently the

0:08.4

longevity paradox.

0:10.0

He's also an award-winning, renowned heart surgeon and researcher, as well as the former

0:15.0

president of the American Heart Association.

0:17.4

But the crazy part of his story is that he left the profession he built his entire career around at the height of his success when he realized he was just dealing with symptoms and not addressing the underlying causes of those symptoms.

0:28.6

And that's where I want to start today. Your book kicks right off with the myths of aging.

0:34.6

Now, I want to believe that we can sort of age in reverse, that we can get stronger,

0:39.0

better looking, more robust as we age, but that is not conventional wisdom. But you debunk it

Like, what are we judging that by?

1:18.5

Better skin, better texture my skin.

1:22.0

One of the things I talk about in the book extensively is your skin is actually a mirror of the lining of your gut.

1:32.6

The lining of your gut, which is the surface of a tennis court, is actually your skin turned inside out.

1:40.4

What is it that makes you think that the gut is so influential in aging specifically? Because

1:45.3

people think of like, I'm going to get arthritis. It's wear and tear. It just is what it is. I've used

1:49.4

my joints so much that, you know, they're going to be tapped out. It actually does make intuitive sense.

1:55.5

And so what you talk about in the book is really sort of kicks people into a new way of thinking about it.
