Dr. Klaper has devoted the last 35 years of his medical career to helping people understand the power of food and lifestyle choices to prevent the need for hospitalization and surgery. He sits atop the pantheon of lifestyle medicine doctors changing how physicians practice with his initiative “Moving Medicine Forward.”
In this episode, he shares his wisdom on aging well with us, touching on important topics such as andropause, the unwavering protein myth, and how we are not baby cows.
CORRECTION! Dr. Klaper mixed up the alpha and beta receptors in the breast cancer discussion, 17:30 minutes in. Alpha promotes growth of breast tissue and beta puts the brake on growth. Soy prefers beta receptors.
