Summary
Dr. Daniel Amen sits down with Savannah in Los Angeles to cover ALL things brain health, nutrition, and emotional wellbeing-- and needless to say, the doc doesn't approve of Savannah's Dr. Pepper addiction.
But don't worry-- he forgot about that when he found out she eats fried chicken roughly once a day. Whoops.
Why does what we are putting in our bodies matter so much? And how can we make little changes that will have ENORMOUS effects on our health, happiness and longevity?
He's got the answers.

| 0:00.0 | Well, it's so nice to meet you. I'm honestly, I'm so excited for today because I absolutely |
| 0:06.2 | love you. I mean, following you on social media and seeing everything that you post, it's |
| 0:12.8 | a lot of times it's like a slap in the face to me because I will say I do not live my life |
| 0:18.4 | and the cleanest healthy as to why. But it's just an honor to be sitting in front of you, |
| 0:23.8 | so thank you. Well, thank you for helping me spread the message. |
| 0:28.0 | No, for sure. And over time, the more you love yourself, the more you do the right |
| 0:33.8 | things. Because it's never because I should do this or I should do that. It's because |
| 0:39.0 | you want the best life possible. For sure. And so I help people do things that help them |
| 0:45.4 | feel good now and later, versus now, but not later. Yes. So let's introduce yourself |
| 0:53.4 | and for people who may not know who you are, what you do, what you stand for and all |
| 0:59.2 | of those things. So I'm a psychiatrist. I'm a general psychiatrist and also a child |

| 1:31.8 | It's not my thing. Some people they run toward fires. Yeah. They like that. No, I'm not |
| 1:39.3 | okay with that. And so I got retrained as an x-ray technician and developed a passion |
| 1:46.2 | for medical imaging. Our professors used to say, how do you know unless you look? Yeah. |
| 1:52.0 | And then in 1975, I got out of the army and finished college, went to medical school. And |
| 1:59.3 | when I was a second year medical student, someone I cared about tried to kill herself. And |
| 2:06.7 | I took her to see a wonderful psychiatrist and I came to realize if he helped her, which |
