Dr. William Li ON What To Eat To BEAT DISEASE, HEAL Your Body, And REGAIN YOUR HEALTH
02/19/24 • 54 min
Back on the show Dr. William Li, world-renowned physician, scientist, and New York Times bestselling author of Eat To Beat Your Disease: The New Science of How Your Body Can Heal Itself and his newest book in which we discussed in our previous episode of the show, Eat To Beat Your Diet; Burn Fat, Heal Your Metabolism, and Live Longer.
We will dive deeper into how we can use food as medicine, prevent disease, and starve off cancer. He reveals the science behind our natural defense systems, how we can use food to reduce inflammation, and activate our health defenses.
Dr. Li is best known for his role as President and Medical Director of the Angiogenesis Foundation. His work has led to more than 40 FDA-approved therapeutics and devices for cancer, cardiovascular disease, wound healing, and vision loss. Dr. Li examines “food as medicine” through molecular nutrition, which applies biology and biotechnology to understand not only the components of food, but how the body responds to what it is fed.
This pioneering approach leads to a deeper understanding of the cellular mechanisms responsible for the health benefits of food, and generates the scientific, clinical, and population-based evidence paving a way toward disease prevention, better fitness, and faster recovery from illness.
In this episode we talk about:
- The one thing that will transform your health
- Top 3 foods to remove that cause inflammation
- Food that's activate our health defenses
- Creating a lifestyle plan not a diet plan
- How he defines health
- Why gut diversity matters..and much more
