The Basics Are the Breakthrough: Dr. Howard Cohn on Why We Skip What Actually Works

What if the most advanced thing you could do for your health was also the simplest? Dr. Howard Cohn has spent 36 years running one of the most sought-after wellness clinics in the country, with a waiting list for 30 of those years, built entirely on word of mouth. In this conversation, he sits down with Heidi and Dr. Watts to talk about why most people skip the foundational habits that actually move the needle, why he believes we don’t need more medicine but more health, and what happens when you stop chasing the latest biohack and start doing the basics with intention. We get into his origin story (it started with a career day and a Dunkin’ Donuts detour), the philosophy behind his Cohn Health Institute, what “bio stacking” really means versus biohacking, and a deep dive into molecular hydrogen, the supplement Dr. Watts has been raving about for its recovery and anti-inflammatory benefits. Dr. Cohn also breaks down the four things that bring women into his office most often (pain, fatigue, weight gain, and sleep), why mineral deficiency is more common than most people realize, and his straight-talk take on the supplement industry and what to actually look for. If you’ve been feeling like you’re doing all the things and still not feeling great, this one’s for you.Cohn Nutritionhttps://cohnnutrition.com Cohn Health Institute https://cohnhealthinstitute.com/The Shift Programhttps://startwithshift.comOn the show, Dr. Vohn Watts, a chiropractor and founder of Foundational Wellness, shares his insights on how the body functions as a whole system, along with the principles he uses to help people get on the path to better health.Please remember, the information shared on this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only.
