Bonus: Why Chronic Disease Is Exploding (Full Conversation with Daniel Schmachtenberger)

In this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, Dr. Mark Hyman interviews Daniel Schmachtenberger about the concept of anthropogenic disease, which are diseases caused by human actions and modern civilization. They discuss the rise of chronic diseases, the failure of the current healthcare system, and the importance of identifying and addressing the root causes of illness rather than just treating symptoms. They explore various factors contributing to disease, including environmental toxins, nutrient deficiencies, subclinical infections, and the impact of industrial agriculture and processed foods. The conversation also touches on the role of perverse incentives in the healthcare and food industries, the need for systemic changes, and the importance of individual agency in creating a healthier future.
