  • A Doctor’s Argument For Why Most Diet’s Fail: The Hidden Hormone Problem Driving Weight Gain and What To Do About It with Dr. Jason Fung

    A Doctor’s Argument For Why Most Diet’s Fail: The Hidden Hormone Problem Driving Weight Gain and What To Do About It with Dr. Jason Fung
    Mar 11 2026
    This episode is brought to you by Cozy Earth, LMNT, Maui Nui, and One Skin. When we think about weight loss, it’s usually framed as a matter of willpower. Eat less. Move more. Try harder. But this episode explores an alternative perspective. Dr. Jason Fung argues that obesity isn’t simply about calories, but about hunger, hormones, and what he describes as a biological “fat thermostat” that may be working against you. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Dr. Jason Fung to unpack his framework for understanding weight gain and fat loss. Dr. Fung explains why he believes calorie restriction often fails, the three types of hunger he describes, and how what he calls “over-hunger” may drive weight gain more than overeating alone. He also breaks down his concept of the “fat thermostat,” metabolic compensation, and what he believes we can learn from other cultures about food environments. He shares his views on GLP-1 drugs, protein needs, and the three “golden rules” he recommends for resetting hunger naturally. Dr. Jason Fung is a Nephrologist, researcher, and bestselling author known for reshaping the conversation around obesity, diabetes, and fasting. His books, The Obesity Code, The Diabetes Code, and The Complete Guide to Fasting, have sold over 1 million copies worldwide and have challenged conventional treatment approaches for type 2 diabetes. He is also the author of The Cancer Code and cofounder of The Fasting Method, a program that helps people lose weight and reverse type 2 diabetes through evidence-based fasting. His work has been featured in CNN, Time, The Atlantic, and Forbes. In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Fung dive into: (00:37) The Real Problem Isn’t Overeating. It’s Over-Hunger (5:26) The 3 Types of Hunger (And Which One Is Controlling You) (13:08) Are Some Calories Actually More Fattening Than Others?

    Alzheimer’s Isn’t Inevitable: The Science of Building a Stronger, Healthier Brain at Any Age with Dr. Majid Fotuhi
    Mar 4 2026
    This episode is brought to you by Bon Charge, BiOptimizers, Momentous, and Branch Basics. When we think about cognitive decline, it’s often framed as something inevitable, something that just happens with age. But this episode challenges that narrative, revealing that brain health is far more dynamic, responsive, and within our control than we’ve been led to believe. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Dr. Majid Fotuhi to unpack what it really takes to protect, strengthen, and even improve your brain as you age. Dr. Fotuhi explains why cognitive decline exists on a spectrum, how lifestyle choices can slow or prevent it, and what the latest research says about reversing early Alzheimer’s. He shares powerful patient stories, breaks down the surprising link between hearing loss and memory issues, and outlines his Five Pillars of Brain Health. Dr. Fotuhi also dives into Tau PET scans, cutting-edge brain training strategies, and why taking action now may be the single most important decision you make for your future cognitive health. Dr. Majid Fotuhi is a neurologist specializing in memory, concussion, and successful aging. With over 30 years of teaching, clinical practice, and neuroscience research at Harvard Medical School and Johns Hopkins, he has developed a multidisciplinary program to help people of all ages improve memory and attention. The results of his program have been published in numerous scientific journals and in his three books. Passionate about public education on brain health, Dr. Fotuhi also teaches in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at George Washington University and at Harvard Medical School. In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Fotuhi dive into: (00:39) Can you slow cognitive decline (2:30) The overlooked daily habits that make or break your brain (6:56) Surprising patient results (17:50) Understanding the spectrum of cognitive decline (22:36) The surprising link between hearing loss and memory loss (30:54) How research on reversing Alzheimer’s has evolved (37:27) Why waiting for symptoms could be your biggest mistake (40:25) The Five Pillars of Brain Health (53:12) The most powerful brain reset you’re probably undervaluing (56:29) Brain-friendly nutrition: what to embrace and what to avoid (1:07:00) Purpose, mindset, and cortisol: the hidden brain chemistry connection (1:17:23) Tau PET scans explained: what they reveal about your brain (1:29:24) Can you train your brain like a muscle?

  • The Cancer & Dementia Link Nobody Warned You About and How to Reset Your Circadian Clock to Lower Your Disease Risk with Dr. Satchin Panda

    The Cancer & Dementia Link Nobody Warned You About and How to Reset Your Circadian Clock to Lower Your Disease Risk with Dr. Satchin Panda
    Feb 25 2026
    This episode is brought to you by Puori, Cozy Earth, Fatty15, and Birch Living. Circadian rhythm is one of the most overlooked drivers of long-term health. It influences when we sleep, how we metabolize food, how our brain repairs itself, and even how our immune system functions. When this internal clock falls out of sync, the effects ripple through every system in the body. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with circadian biology expert Dr. Satchin Panda to explore the four pillars of circadian health and how losing alignment can contribute to cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease. Dr. Panda shares key strategies to reduce your risk and breaks down the science behind why protecting your master clock is critical for preventing chronic disease. He also explains the importance of time-restricted eating, how timing influences the effectiveness of medications and cancer immunotherapy, and the role exercise plays in detoxification. Dr. Satchin Panda is a world-renowned pioneer in circadian biology and a Professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, where he holds the Rita and Richard Atkinson Chair. Recently named a semifinalist in the XPRIZE Healthspan competition, Dr. Panda leads "Team Circadian" in groundbreaking research to reverse biological aging through rhythmic optimization. His discovery of the blue-light sensitive protein melanopsin and his extensive research on time-restricted eating have reshaped global health guidelines, leading to featured presentations at premier international forums including the American Diabetes Association and the professional diabetes societies of Europe and Australia. In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Panda dive into: (00:59) The Circadian–Alzheimer’s Connection (3:00) Why Light Controls Your Health (26:36) Sleep as Brain Defense (34:01) Inside Your Master Clock (38:17) Why Meal Timing Matters (49:33) Time-Restricted Eating Explained (57:12) Timing Your Medications (1:01:27) Circadian Biology & Cancer Treatment (1:09:25) Exercise as Cancer Insurance (1:16:01) What Exercise Does at the Cellular Level (1:26:23) Minimum Effective Dose of Movement (1:57:47) The Circadian Challenge (2:06:21) Circadian Rhythm as Your Operating System (2:11:20) Final Takeaways Also mentioned in this episode: OnTime Health App Human Performance Alliance For more on Dr. Satchin Panda, follow him on X/Twitter, Instagram, Ontime Health’s Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, or visit his Website.
