    The Gut Health Crisis: Why Americans Are Falling Behind with Dr. Tim Spector

    05/2/2026 | 59 mins.
    Is your gut microbiome the most important organ you're ignoring? In this episode of The Dan Buettner Podcast, world-renowned geneticist and epidemiologist Dr. Tim Spector reveals groundbreaking research on why the microbes in your gut are the ultimate indicator of your health and resilience.
    Drawing from a massive study of 300,000 samples recently published in Nature, Dr. Spector explains a startling "health gap": why American gut health is significantly worse than that of Europeans. We explore why a stool test may provide more critical health insights than a standard blood or DNA test, and how the "30-plant rule" can fundamentally reprogram your immune system.

    29/1/2026 | 37 mins.
    In this episode of the Dan Buettner Podcast, Dan sits down with board-certified OB-GYN and celebrity health expert Dr. Jessica Shepherd to uncover the surprising intersection between menopause and longevity.

    Dr. Shepherd explains why women’s life expectancy has jumped by 20 years since the early 1900s, yet our biological clocks haven't caught up. We dive into the science of ""delaying"" menopause not just for reproduction, but for the long-term vitality that estrogen provides to every organ in the body.
