#520: Healthspan Medicine, A Practical Approach

from The Curbsiders Internal Medicine Podcast · host The Curbsiders Internal Medicine Podcast

How do we help patients improve health span without letting wearables, biomarkers, and wellness trends take over the conversation? Learn how to think about CGMs in patients without diabetes, how to interpret early cardiometabolic risk beyond the A1c, how to prescribe exercise in a practical way, and how to counsel patients about sleep, wearables, and even peptides. We’re joined by Dr. Sandeep Palakadedi (Dr. “Deep”), founder and CEO of Velocity Health and author of The Ultimate Asset.Claim CME for this episode at curbsiders.vcuhealth.org!Patreon | Episodes | Subscribe | Spotify | YouTube | Newsletter | Contact | Swag! | CMEShow Segments Intro CGMs, Postprandial Glucose, and Data Neurosis Beyond Glucose: ApoB, Lp(a), and Early Cardiometabolic Risk Body Composition, VO2 Max, and Functional Longevity Sleep, HRV, and Wearables Prescribing Exercise in Real Life How to Talk to Patients About Peptides Take-Home Points CreditsWritten and produced by Paul Wurtz MD.
