Intro

⚡In a world obsessed with wearables and health tracking, we’ve been ignoring one of the most powerful health indicators, our poop. In this episode, Dr. Karan sits down with Scott Hickle, co-founder of Throne Science, to explore how the next big health revolution might come from your toilet. Together, they explore how stool and urine can reveal everything from hydration and stress to early signs of colon cancer and how Throne’s smart toilet could transform preventive medicine forever.

💬 They break down the hidden biomarkers in poop, the gut–brain connection, and why tracking waste might be the most powerful health insight yet. Scott also reveals how the technology works, what it can detect, and how it might save millions of lives by catching disease before symptoms ever appear.This isn’t just a conversation about toilets; it’s about the future of health, longevity, and data-driven self-awareness.
