Longevity isn’t just about talent—it’s about what you’re willing to change when your body starts asking for something different. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I’m joined by Chris Paul—one of the most respected point guards of all time—to talk about the mindset that’s carried him through more than two decades in the NBA. We get into what shifted along the way and what it really takes to keep showing up at a high level year after year. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. Here’s what we cover: • Why what worked in your 20s stops working and what to do instead • How inflammation shows up and what improves when you address it • Why stress and poor sleep quietly drain energy and slow recovery • What simple habits actually move the needle over time • How understanding your data helps you make better daily decisions Your body is always giving you signals. The earlier you begin to listen and respond, the more it can support you over time.

Breast implants may have become increasingly common—but for some women, the experience doesn’t always unfold the way they expected. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Dr. Jonathan Kanevsky, a board-certified plastic surgeon who made the decision to stop performing breast implant procedures after years of listening closely to his patients. We explore what he started seeing, how to approach this decision, and what alternatives are now available. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. You’ll learn: • How to tell if your symptoms may be connected to breast implants • What to consider before deciding to remove them • Why recovery after explant looks different for everyone • What safer, more natural alternatives are available today • How to support your body before and after surgery for better recovery This is a complex and deeply personal decision. My hope is that understanding the full picture helps you make a more informed one.

Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women yet it often takes years to diagnose, and many are told their pain is “normal” or simply treated with birth control or surgery. But endometriosis isn’t just a hormone issue—it’s a whole-body condition driven by inflammation, immune dysfunction, gut health, and environmental exposures. In this episode, we break down what’s really causing it and what you can do to address it at the root. I’m joined by my longtime colleague and friend, Dr. Elizabeth Boham, Medical Director and Functional Medicine Physician at The UltraWellness Center. Here’s what we break down: • Why endometriosis is not just a gynecologic condition and the root causes most doctors miss • The hidden role of gut health, inflammation, and the microbiome in driving symptoms • How estrogen imbalance and environmental toxins (xenoestrogens) fuel the condition • A functional medicine approach to reducing pain and preventing recurrence beyond medication or surgery If you’re struggling with endometriosis or unresolved symptoms and want a more personalized, root-cause approach, you can learn more about becoming a patient at The UltraWellness Center here: https://www.ultrawellnesscenter.com/becoming-a-patient/ Visit ⁠functionhealth.com for 160+ lab tests at just $365 a year.

Pregnancy is often filled with anticipation, excitement, and a lot of questions. But biologically, it’s also a powerful window when a baby’s metabolism and long-term health begin to take shape. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I talk with biochemist and bestselling author Jessie Inchauspé about how nutrition during pregnancy can influence a baby’s development and long-term health. Her new book, 9 Months That Count Forever, takes a closer look at the science behind these connections. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. We discuss: • Why pregnancy may be one of the most important windows for shaping lifelong health • Why balancing blood sugar during pregnancy matters—and simple ways to reduce glucose spikes • The nutrients that matter most during pregnancy, from choline and protein to omega-3s • How to make healthier choices during pregnancy without added stress or confusion This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about understanding what matters most and making small, consistent choices that support both you and your baby.

Fiber is having a moment—but more isn’t always better. From “fiber maxing” trends to high-fiber hacks promising weight loss and better metabolism, it’s easy to assume that piling on more fiber is the answer. In this episode of Office Hours, I break down what fiber actually does in the body, who benefits most from increasing it, and how to use it strategically to support your gut and metabolic health. In this episode, I break down: • What fiber actually does in the body—from feeding your microbiome to regulating blood sugar, cholesterol, and hormones • Who benefits most from increasing fiber (and why it can support weight loss, insulin sensitivity, and estrogen balance) • When more fiber can make things worse—especially with IBS, SIBO, or gut inflammation • How to increase fiber the right way, including types of fiber, timing, hydration, and why protein still matters Fiber isn’t a trend or a quick fix—it’s a foundational nutrient. But the goal isn’t to “max out” your intake. It’s to build metabolic and gut resilience by giving your body the right types and amounts it actually needs. When used correctly, fiber can be one of the most powerful tools for long-term health—but only when it’s personalized to your biology.
