Podcast cover

The Dr. Hyman Show

In this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, Dr. Mark Hyman interviews Dr. Rhonda Patrick, an expert in nutritional science and aging, about the widespread micronutrient deficiencies in America and their impact on health and longevity. They discuss the importance of vitamins and minerals, the flaws in current nutritional studies, and the triage theory, which explains how the body prioritizes essential functions over long-term health when nutrients are scarce. They highlight common deficiencies like vitamin D, magnesium, and omega-3s, and explore the role of phytochemicals in promoting health. Dr. Patrick recommends key supplements like vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, a high-quality multivitamin, magnesium, and sulforaphane to address these deficiencies and optimize overall well-being.
