Pushing The Limits
What if the diet you've been following diligently — eating all the right things, tracking your macros, staying committed — is actually wrong for your specific biology?

In this episode, Lisa dives into the Immunosenescence Paradox: why aging makes your body less effective at fighting...

In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, I sit down with Dr. Aaron Hartman, family physician turned functional medicine specialist, whose entire medical philosophy changed after his adopted daughter Anna was diagnosed with cerebral palsy and given a hopeless prognosis.
