Why? Because it can reduce or eliminate insulin resistance, which is behind so many chronic diseases. Add to that reducing stress and sleeping better, and you're on the way to a healthier lifestyle that benefits both your body and your mind. In five clips from my Masterclass series, Dhru Purohit and I discuss the basics of Functional Medicine, including diet, inflammation, stress, and sleep, and why it's important to start reducing chronic disease right now to live a longer, healthier, vitality-filled life. Dhru Purohit is a podcast host, serial entrepreneur, and investor in the health and wellness industry.
