Are You Drinking TOO Much Water? The Hidden Danger of Overhydration | EP 415.A
Water is essential for life—but could drinking more of it actually be working against you? In this episode, I’m tackling one of the biggest hydration myths out there: that everyone needs eight glasses of water a day. I’ll explain why your individual water needs may be very different, how drinking too much water can throw off your electrolyte balance, and why overhydration may even affect how efficiently your heart works. Plus, I’ll share the signs you may be overdoing it, what really counts toward your daily hydration, and a smarter way to think about water and electrolytes. Before you refill that giant water bottle again, you’ll want to hear this!

How Much Vitamin D You REALLY Should Be Taking | EP 415
I once had a patient tell me, "You don't know much about vitamin D, do you?" He had a point, not because I hadn't studied it, but because so much of what we're taught about vitamin D simply hasn't caught up to the research. My patient’s question led me down a path of research that changed how I treat every patient who walks through my door. In this episode, I break down Why vitamin D isn't a vitamin at all but a hormone quietly running the show for your gut and immune system Why the "toxic" dose you've been warned about is a myth that's kept millions of people needlessly deficient Why this one hormone might be the closest thing we have to a longevity switch. Plus, learn the exact number I push my own patients' levels to, and why your doctor's idea of "normal" is probably way too low. For full show notes and transcript: drgundry.com/how-much-vitamin-d-should-i-take On this episode, you’ll learn: Why vitamin D isn't actually a vitamin (01:11) How nearly 80% of new patients turn out to be vitamin D deficient (you probably are too!) (01:31) What vitamin D has to do with the diversity of your gut microbiome (02:18) What a major university research group discovered about vitamin D at doses most people assume would be dangerous (09:04) A real patient story from this week, and the dose it took to finally get his vitamin D levels where they needed to be (11:33) The sweet spot dose of vitamin D that works for most people — and who might need to dial it back (12:46) Why doing THIS to your peppers might be the trick to enjoying them without the reaction (16:32) Thank you to our sponsors!

Using AI for Medical Advice? Here's the Best (and Worst) Way to Do It | EP 414
Have you asked ChatGPT or Claude a health question before? AI is already changing how patients research symptoms, read labs, and make health decisions — and that could be one of the most empowering shifts in medicine, or a potential disaster. My guest today knows exactly where that line is. Dr. Vivienne Ming is a theoretical neuroscientist who's spent 30years building AI to expand human potential, founding more than a dozen companies along the way. She has built one of the first AI systems ever designed to help manage a disease, and she shares it all in her new book, Robot-Proof: When Machines Have All the Answers, Build Better People. On this episode, we get into where AI genuinely helps your health, where it quietly diminishes your own power of intellect and reason, and why the smartest "mind" in any room isn't a genius or a supercomputer. On this episode, you’ll learn: Why doctors and AI make "complementary" errors—and how combining them beats either one alone (01:31) How outsourcing your thinking to AI over a lifetime could raise your risk of THESE health issues (06:54) A fascinating experiment that reveals how you can build richer, denser brain connections through this (10:03) Why your brain does a nightly cleanup during sleep (13:25) The "nemesis prompt" trick for using AI to challenge you instead of letting it do the thinking for you (15:24) What the "Jiffy Lube colonoscopy" problem is, and which doctors suffer from it the most (18:13) The hidden bias problem in medical AI—and why it may perform worse for underrepresented populations (27:42) The real reason AI hallucinations can never be fully eliminated, and what that means for how much you should trust it (30:00) A simple technique for using AI to build real understanding of any health condition (40:15) Practical guardrails for deciding how much to trust an AI answer before you bring it to your doctor (45:02) For full show notes and transcript: https://drgundry.com/should-i-trust-ai-for-health-advice Thank you to our sponsors!

4 Weight Loss Lies Doctors Still Tell You | 413
Dr. Steven Gundry takes his scalpel to four of the most stubborn weight loss myths in modern nutrition—the ones that have you white-knuckling through miserable diets while the scale refuses to budge. Questions answered in this episode: Does eating fat actually make you gain weight? Why doesn't counting calories work for weight loss? Can you lose weight with exercise alone? Is weight gain really about willpower and discipline? What role do gut bacteria play in weight loss? Why do most diets fail in the long run? How does gut health affect your metabolism and cravings? Is cottage cheese a weight loss food? Tune in to learn why real, lasting weight loss is a "side effect" of ending the war in your gut—and why the number on the scale is your gut buddies' business, not your calorie counter's.

The Arthritis Lie: Why "Wear and Tear" Isn't Wearing Out Your Joints | EP 412a
Do your joints ache every time you get out of bed? Here's what those cheerful drug commercials won't tell you: the medications treating your rheumatoid, psoriatic, and osteoarthritis are actually transplant drugs designed to suppress your immune system — and they're managing a symptom while ignoring the real cause. In this episode, I explain why arthritis is not a normal part of aging, why your "wear and tear" joints have the same root cause as heart disease, and how 94% of my autoimmune patients get off their medications and become symptom-free within a year. On this episode, you'll learn: Why the happy, dancing people in arthritis drug commercials couldn't be further from the truth (02:17) The real reason your immune system attacks your own joints — and it's not a "mistake" (03:04) How 50% of Dr. Gundry's patients had blood-test-proven rheumatoid arthritis with zero joint pain (04:27) The shocking reason a heart attack can be the very first sign of rheumatoid arthritis (04:44) What Dr. Google gets wrong about voice changes as an arthritis symptom (06:25) The one question Dr. Gundry asks patients that makes their eyebrows shoot up (09:36) Why a stent or bypass gives you a 50% chance of a joint replacement within five years (13:26) The exact blood tests to ask your doctor for — and the one panel most people skip (14:49) How a patient named Jerry canceled his knee replacement and skipped around the exam room (17:48) The truth about how much olive oil you actually need for its benefits (19:22) See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Osteoporosis Drug Industry Doesn't Want You to Know This | EP 412
Were you just told you have osteopenia or osteoporosis? Here's what your doctor may not have mentioned: they're the same disease, and the drugs commonly prescribed for it can actually make your bones more fragile, not stronger. In this episode, I break down the real warning signs, expose the suspicious timing between DEXA scan technology and the drug industry that followed it, and share how my own wife reversed her osteoporosis without a single prescription. For full show notes and transcript: https://drgundry.com//osteoporosis-osteopenia-symptoms On this episode, you’ll learn: Why osteopenia and osteoporosis are actually the exact same condition (01:12) Which warning signs could mean you have a hidden compression fracture you’re unaware of (02:57) What Google gets wrong about "uncommon" bone loss symptoms (05:12) Why your balance problems might have nothing to do with your bones — and everything to do with your spine (5:45) The reason a sudden change in posture could be a red flag your body is sending you (06:17) What osteoblasts and osteoclasts are actually doing inside your bones every single day (011:00) The disturbing reason dental surgeons refuse to do implants on patients taking popular bone drugs (13:05) How a leaky gut could be the true root cause of your bone loss, not aging (14:48) The surprising story of how my own wife reversed her osteoporosis by changing her diet, not by medication (15:03) See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Skin-Gut Connection: What a French Cosmetics Insider Wants You to Know | EP 411
What if everything you've been told about good skin is upside down? My guest today, Camille Hermann, spent 15 years formulating products for L'Oréal, Clarins, and Eucerin — and then walked away from it all. Why? Because she realized the industry she helped build was treating symptoms while ignoring the real cause. Camille is now a skin biologist who calls the skin "the dashboard of your biology" — a window into your gut, your hormones, and even your brain. In this episode, we break down what your acne, eczema, and thinning hair are actually trying to tell you, why the French seem to eat everything and stay lean anyway, and why I've been putting olive oil in my mouth and on my face for years. If you've ever felt like your skincare routine is fighting you instead of helping you, you're going to want to hear this one. For full show notes and transcript: https://drgundry.com/skin-gut-connection-camille-hermann On this episode, you’ll learn: Why my guest walked away from creams and serums to chase the real root cause of skin problems (04:43) How to start reading your skin issues as warning signs for other health issues (06:46) What your breakouts and eczema are actually trying to tell you about inflammation in your gut (13:11) The simple French eating habits that explain why they stay lean without ever counting a calorie (20:22) What the "GLOW" method is and how it can help reset your skin from the inside in about four weeks (24:58) Why olive oil belongs on your face just as much as in your mouth (31:03) The real results my guest experienced during her skin transformation (and how you can too) (39:01) Which everyday habit in your morning skincare routine you should stop doing immediately (43:18) Why thinning hair might have more to do with your gut health than your genetics, stress, or hormonal changes (47:47) Thank you to our sponsors!

Beef Tallow vs. Olive Oil: The Truth About Cooking Fats (From a Heart Surgeon) | EP 409.A
Beef tallow is making a huge comeback. Seed oils are under fire. And suddenly, everyone seems to have an opinion about what you should be cooking with. But what does the science actually say? In this episode, I'm breaking down one of the biggest nutrition debates today: beef tallow vs. lard vs. olive oil. I'll explain how decades of government dietary advice changed the way Americans cook, why animal fats disappeared from our kitchens, and whether they deserve a place back on your plate. You'll also discover the surprising truth about olive oil that most people get wrong, my thoughts on the butter-in-coffee trend, and the cooking fats I actually recommend after decades as a heart surgeon and nutrition researcher. If you've ever wondered which fats are helping your health—and which ones are quietly working against it—this episode is for you.

Antibiotics, Leaky Gut, and the Microbiome Crisis Nobody's Talking About | EP 408
Every time you pop an antibiotic, you think you're winning the battle, but what if you're quietly losing the war? Sure, antibiotics can be lifesaving. But in our modern times, antibiotics are often prescribed for everything… even when they make no difference at all. Most people never stop to ask: Do I really need this antibiotic? Or better yet: What studies show this will actually help my condition? And ultimately, we never stop to ask what happens after the infection clears. The truth is, that the prescription your doctor handed you may have saved you from one problem while creating a much bigger one you won't see coming for months — or even years. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what antibiotics are really doing to your gut, why the damage goes far deeper than you've been told, and what you can actually do about it if you've ever taken one, or a hundred. On this episode, you’ll learn: Why you should think twice before filling that next antibiotic prescription (00:06) What Stanford researchers say about getting your gut bacteria back after a course of antibiotics (03:47) What your gut bacteria have to do with your immune system (03:55) Why conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and mystery rashes may actually be your gut waving a red flag (05:15) Exactly what to ask your doctor before you accept a broad-spectrum antibiotic prescription (08:00) The top tips for rebuilding your gut after antibiotics (it isn't as simple as taking a probiotic!) (12:10) All about the shocking amount of antibiotics found in meat (14:53) The real reason your pet may be suffering from itchy skin (17:53) For full show notes and transcript: https://drgundry.com/do-i-need-antibiotics Thank you to our sponsors!

I Waited 25 Years to Make This Supplement. Here's Why. | EP 407.A
NAD is everywhere right now: supplements, injections, podcast topics, longevity clinics. And I'll be honest, when something gets this trendy, I get skeptical. But NAD is different. This is actually something I've been watching closely for nearly 25 years, and the science has finally caught up. Here's what most people don't realize: the exhaustion, the brain fog, the slower recovery you've been chalking up to "just getting older"? That's often your NAD levels in freefall, and it's happening earlier than you think. On this episode, I'm breaking down what NAD actually does inside your cells, why most supplements on the market are quietly failing you, and what I looked for when I finally designed my own formula — Gundry MD Elevate NAD+. I spent years waiting to make one until I could develop an NAD supplement that delivered you real results. On this episode, you’ll learn: What the "second baseman" is, and why it is the most important player in your cellular health (3:09) All about the French Paradox and its connection to NAD research (4:32) What fasting and strength training have in common that no one talks about (6:15) The dirty secret about most NMN supplements on the market (7:35) 3 reasons your NAD gets depleted (and what a well-designed formula like Gundry MD Elevate NAD+ actually does about it) (15:25) The checklist I use to evaluate any NAD supplement (17:41) What age should you actually start thinking about NAD support (12:21) What real NAD support looks like in practice (hear my personal story) (10:57) A special thank you for being part of our podcast family, use code PODCAST25 for 25% off your purchase of my brand-new NAD supplement.

The Truth About GLP-1 Nobody in Pharma Wants You to Know | EP 407
You can't scroll through your feed for five seconds without seeing someone talking about Ozempic, Wegovy, or the newest GLP-1 drug. But here's what nobody is telling you: your body was already designed to make its own version of this appetite-suppressing hormone. However, most of us have stopped feeding the good bacteria responsible for producing it. In this episode, I'm breaking down the gut-centric theory of hunger, a fascinating concept that completely changed the way I think about appetite, cravings, and weight management. Plus, I'll share what happened when I personally experimented with a specific category of food for my upcoming book and experienced something I can only describe as... injecting GLP-1. Without the injection.

4 Medical Myths Doctors are Still Taught Today (don't be fooled too) | EP 406.a
I trained at one of the world's most prestigious medical institutions and spent years following conventional medical wisdom. But after watching the same advice fail patient after patient, I started questioning everything. In this episode, I reveal why I believe some of medicine's most accepted ideas — from cholesterol to calories-in, calories-out — are deeply flawed. We'll explore the gut microbiome revolution, the outdated thinking still shaping healthcare today, and the discoveries that completely changed the way I approach weight loss, heart disease, inflammation, and chronic illness.

Medicare 101: The Decisions That Could Define Your Healthcare Forever | EP 406
Did you know which Medicare plan is right for you? Well, I've seen it firsthand when patients don't know their options, and it's devastating... That's why I brought Ari Parker on the show. He's a Stanford-trained attorney, co-founder of Chapter, and one of the few people in this country who is genuinely fighting for Medicare recipients — not selling them something. What we talk about in this episode could save you thousands of dollars, protect your access to the doctors you trust, and give you something most people on Medicare don't have: real options. On this episode, you’ll learn: Why signing up for Medicare even two years late can cost you a lifetime penalty (03:00) How Medicare Advantage plans use free dental, vision, and hearing benefits as bait 14:09) The two types of Medicare most people don't realize they have to choose between, and why the option that's never advertised on TV may actually be the better fit for you (06:48) What the "Three Ps" are — and how they can match you to a plan that actually fits your life, not a salesperson's quota (16:58) Exactly what happens when your insurance company denies a test your doctor ordered — and how to advocate for yourself (28:43) Top tips you should know about your Medicare plan before important windows close (19:40) The real reason Diet Coke makes you overeat (I was once a Diet Coke addict!) (33:55) This episode was sponsored by Chapter, but Dr. Gundry's experiences and opinions are his own.
