Why Our Neglected Lymph System Is A Key To Optimal Health with Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Gerald Lemole
This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, BiOptimizers, and InsideTracker.
The lymphatic system is a critically foundational system in helping us feel well and age better. It’s actually part of both our circulatory and immune systems, responsible for fluid regulation, cellular clean-up, detoxification, and more.
I’m excited to talk more about this with Drs. Mehmet Oz and Gerald Lemole. Dr. Oz has won ten Daytime Emmy® Awards for The Dr. Oz Show and is an Attending Physician at NY Presbyterian-Columbia Medical Center. He is also the proud author of eight New York Times bestsellers including his most recent, Food Can Fix It.
Dr. Gerald Lemole is a board-certified cardiothoracic surgeon and integrative physician. He served as chief of cardiovascular surgery at Christiana Care Health Services from 1986 to 2006 and subsequently served as the Medical Director for the Center of Integrative Health at the Preventive Medicine and Rehabilitation Institute. His latest book Lymph & Longevity: The Untapped Secret to Health was just released.
