If you haven’t heard, Dhru and I have been teaming up to do weekly podcast episodes called “Masterclasses.” We sit down and have deep conversations about the most important health topics of our time and give you all the answers you’ve been after.
This week on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru is featuring two of our favorite Masterclass episodes all about creating optimal brain health and reducing inflammation.
We talk about the top foods to avoid—and to enjoy—to optimize brain health, why sugar is so bad for the brain, and how toxins can lead to neurodegeneration. Then we break down the meaning and function of inflammation and how it manifests as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, depression, and more.
