What if you could reverse your immune system’s age by nearly 50%—in just 90 days? In this powerful follow-up conversation, I’m joined again by Dr. Jeff Bland, the father of Functional Medicine, to explore how the foods we eat can directly reprogram our immune function, reduce chronic inflammation, and even rejuvenate immune age at the cellular level.
We dive into the science of immune resilience, aging, and chronic disease prevention, with a special focus on one of the most powerful foods you’ve probably never heard of: Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat. Backed by emerging research, this phytonutrient-rich plant is showing remarkable results in reducing oxidative stress, supporting gut health, and regulating gene expression related to immune health.
In this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, you’ll learn:
• Why immune aging is reversible—and how to measure it
• How phytochemicals act as gene regulators, not just antioxidants
• The connection between food, inflammation, and immune dysfunction
• How Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat boosted immune rejuvenation by 47% in clinical studies
• The future of nutritional immunology and personalized health
If you’re struggling with chronic illness, inflammation, or simply want to optimize your healthspan, this episode will help you rethink what’s possible for your immune system—and how food can be your most powerful medicine.
