In this episode, Carly reflects on an idea that maybe we don’t need to explain or problem solve everything we feel. Drawing on Japanese Psychology and Morita Therapy, she explores what it means to accept our humanness rather than fight against it.

In this insightful discussion, I chat with Dr. Sandeep Gupta, a proponent of integrative medicine and longevity health. We explore the evolving landscape of healthcare, discuss the limitations of the traditional medical system, and delve into the holistic approaches to health that focus on both healthspan and lifespan.

What You'll Learn:

1. The Shift to Integrative Medicine: Discover why Dr. Gupta transitioned from traditional pathways to focus on integrative and holistic approaches, driven by personal experiences and the need for a comprehensive view of health.
2. Challenges in Traditional Medicine: Uncover the stigmas associated with holistic health approaches in the conventional medical setting and how these have historically been viewed by the medical community.
3. Medicine 3.0 and Longevity: Understand Dr. Gupta's focus on healthspan and longevity, emphasising quality years of life filled with passion, joy, and meaning over merely extending lifespan.
4. Metabolic Health and Chronic Diseases: Learn about the significance of metabolic health, its impact on major diseases, and how insulin resistance syndrome underpins many health issues.
5. Diet and Longevity: Explore dietary recommendations for longevity, recognising the absence of a one-size-fits-all diet, and the importance of reducing sugar and refined carbohydrates.
6. Muscle Mass and Health: Grasp the crucial role of maintaining muscle mass, its anti-inflammatory benefits, and its significance in preventing sarcopenia and indirectly reducing risks for major health disorders.

Key Takeaways:

• Integrative medicine can offer a more complete approach to health, focusing not only on treating diseases but promoting overall well-being and longer healthspans.
• Traditional medicine often emphasises treatment of disease over prevention and maintenance of optimal health, a paradigm explored through Medicine 3.0.
• Metabolic syndrome is a silent precursor to many chronic illnesses, and dietary choices play a crucial role in managing this risk.
• Muscle health is vital; maintaining muscle mass as we age can prevent systemic issues and chronic disease.
• A balanced diet rich in diverse, colourful foods can bolster metabolic health and support a robust microbiome.
• Grounding and nature exposure are gaining recognition for their potential health benefits, including reducing inflammation and improving mental well-being.
