883. A Metabolic Mess

A statistic that Dr. Martin based his last book on is that 88% of the population has some form of metabolic syndrome. That means only 12% of the population is considered healthy. This is significant because metabolic syndrome opens the door to heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's, diabetes and autoimmune. A new study from Tufts University is saying the situation is worse than we thought. It's reporting that only 7% of the population is metabolically healthy. It means that out of 15 people, 14 of them have some form of metabolic syndrome! Join Dr. Martin as he unpacks this study and explains why we're in such a metabolic mess!
