In this podcast episode, the focus is on erectile dysfunction (ED), exploring its commonality among different age groups and its link to overall metabolic health. Dr. Mark Hyman and his guest reveal that ED often signals deeper issues such as insulin resistance, inflammation, and hormonal imbalances, rather than being just a localized problem. They stress the importance of tackling these underlying causes through lifestyle changes—like improving diet, increasing exercise, and managing stress—along with thorough testing for hormone levels and insulin resistance. Innovative treatments, such as GAINSWave therapy and exosome injections, are also discussed as alternatives to traditional medications like Viagra. The conversation highlights the strong connection between physical and mental health, showing that enhancing overall well-being can greatly improve sexual health.
