Medicine stands at the threshold of a new era, where artificial intelligence and systems biology are working hand in hand to make care more personal, predictive, and precise than ever before. AI is already improving diagnostic accuracy, automating administrative tasks, and uncovering patterns in data—like retinal scans or genomics—that humans often miss. Rather than replacing doctors, AI enhances their ability to deliver mo...

This special bonus episode features Dr. Todd LePine from the UltraWellness Center, diving into how functional medicine can help reverse fatty liver disease—an often-overlooked condition that’s quietly affecting millions. While conventional care may miss early warning signs or focus solely on medication, Dr. LePine and I take a deeper look at the root causes. We also walk through a real patient case that shows how liver fat can be ...

Our healthcare system is broken—and it’s not by accident. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I’m joined by Brigham Buhler, a former pharmaceutical rep turned healthcare entrepreneur, to explore how misaligned incentives across pharma, insurance, and government are undermining patient care.  This conversation is about more than just exposing the problem. It’s about empowering individuals. Watch our full discussion on my YouTube...

Social media platforms are designed to hijack our brain’s reward system, keeping us hooked through endless dopamine hits. This constant stimulation fragments our attention, reshapes our behavior, and can lead to burnout, anxiety, and even addiction—especially in developing brains. The more we scroll, the more we crave quick hits of novelty, making it harder to tolerate boredom or engage in deeper, more meaningful tasks. And while a...

On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, we’re exploring the emerging science of metabolic psychiatry. My guest, Dr. Iain Campbell, is a researcher at the University of Edinburgh and someone who has lived with bipolar disorder himself. He brings a rare dual perspective as both a scientist and a patient to this critical conversation.  Together, we discuss what’s really driving psychiatric conditions like bipolar disorder and why a sy...

ADHD and other brain-based conditions such as depression, autism, and even schizophrenia are increasingly understood as inflammatory disorders of the brain—deeply rooted in the complex interplay between genetics, environment, and lifestyle. Many individuals go undiagnosed for years, internalizing harmful labels like “lazy” or “difficult,” until the weight of unaddressed symptoms finally becomes too much. But there is hope: Function...

On this episode of The Doctor Hyman Show, I sit down with Dr. Eric Topol—renowned cardiologist, geneticist, and founder of the Scripps Research Translational Institute—to talk about the future of disease prevention. From AI diagnostics to genetic risk scoring, we explore the tools that could help stop Alzheimer’s and other chronic diseases before they start. This is one of the most hopeful conversations I’ve had about what’s ahead...

Longevity isn’t just about adding years to life—it’s about adding life to those years. At the heart of lasting vitality are the often-overlooked essentials: deep social connection, a clear sense of purpose, and a mindset filled with optimism. These emotional and relational foundations are just as critical as what’s happening inside the body. Thanks to emerging diagnostics and the growing field of functional and longevity medicine, ...

What if the key to healing depression isn’t another pill but a profound shift in consciousness? On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I talk with Dr. Robin Carhart-Harris, one of the world’s leading psychedelic researchers, about how these compounds unlock plasticity in the brain and offer new hope for people with treatment-resistant mental health challenges. From trauma recovery to the entropic brain principle, this is a conve...

Sunlight has long been vilified for its link to skin cancer, yet hiding from it entirely may be costing us far more. Vitamin D, made primarily through sun exposure, plays a pivotal role in everything from bone strength and immune defense to mood regulation, cancer prevention, and even longevity. Shockingly, over 80% of people have levels too low to unlock its protective powers—putting them at greater risk for chronic illness, and e...

This special bonus episode features Dr. Cindy Geyer from the UltraWellness Center, diving into how functional medicine approaches high blood pressure — and why treating the root cause means looking far beyond salt and stress. In this conversation, Dr. Geyer walks through the case of a woman with longstanding “white coat” hypertension, family history of cognitive decline, and no clear answers from conventional care. By investigatin...

We often think that better health is just a matter of trying harder, but science tells a different story. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Arianna Huffington to explore why willpower isn’t enough—and what actually drives meaningful, lasting change. Arianna shares how her work with Thrive AI Health is helping people build better habits through microsteps, personalization, and community. Catch the full conversa...

Not long ago, conditions like Alzheimer’s were rare, but today, nearly one in two people over 80 are diagnosed with it. In contrast, in places like the Amazon, dementia affects only about one in a hundred—highlighting how modern lifestyle plays a major role in brain health. The brain isn’t an isolated organ; it’s deeply influenced by diet, sleep, movement, stress, toxins, and emotional well-being. Many people who once struggled wit...

Muscle plays a powerful role in keeping us healthy and living longer, but most people start losing it after age 30—and that loss can drive chronic disease and early aging. The good news is that strength training and eating enough protein can help prevent this decline, improve blood sugar control, and reduce the risk of issues like diabetes, dementia, heart disease, and depression. Muscle isn’t just for movement—it acts like an orga...

Rates of chronic illness, behavioral disorders, and neurodevelopmental challenges are rising rapidly among children, often tied to underlying gut dysfunction, nutrient deficiencies, and environmental triggers such as toxins and ultra-processed foods. Conventional treatments frequently overlook these root causes, relying instead on symptom management or medication. Functional approaches emphasize foundational lifestyle changes—clean...

Our health and the health of our soil are deeply intertwined. Modern agriculture has become heavily dependent on synthetic inputs and industrial practices that strip the land of vitality, and the farmers of agency. Many farmers no longer eat what they grow, suffer from poor health, and experience alarming rates of depression and suicide. But there’s a path forward: regenerative farming not only restores soil health and increases nu...
