The Evolving Wellness Podcast with Sarah Kleiner Wellness Challenging the Protein Paradigm, Rethinking Health Essentials | Dr. Vincent Esposito
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Vincent Esposito for a thought-provoking conversation that explores both our differences and shared values in the health space. While we don’t align on every aspect of nutrition, we absolutely agree on the importance of questioning conventional wisdom, especially when it comes to antibiotics, hormone health, and taking ownership of your well-being. We explore topics like high-protein diets, the impact of artificial light on sleep, and why a one-size-fits-all approach to health often falls short.
Topics Discussed:
What are the risks of a high-protein diet?
How does artificial light affect sleep and circadian rhythms?
Why is it important to question mainstream narratives about estrogen and hormone health?
What role do antibiotics play in long-term health and gut function?
How can personal accountability improve your overall wellness journey?
