To live long, healthy lives, research suggests looking towards the gut microbiome to ward off chronic diseases like high blood pressure, heart disease, cancer, or type 2 diabetes. A whopping 46 million Americans are currently over 65 years of age. As Americans age, they are more at risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.

In this part II of the podcast with Dr. Ralph Esposito, we discuss all things nutrition and hormones. We attack this from an athletic perspective and give reference to questions like "what are the hormones that athletes need to know about and what are we doing to mess these hormones up".

Other things discussed in the episode:

Herbs/ supplements
What is oxidative damage and oxidative stress?
How are reactive oxygen species formed and how can they harm your cells if present in high concentrations?
How can you minimize the creation and negative impacts of reactive oxygen species in your body and brain?
What is the best type of diet for your physiology.
