Open on Podcast

Podcast episode (Heal Your Hunger Show Ep440) featuring Sachin Patel. Patel outlines a patient-empowerment view of health ("the doctor of the future is the patient") and offers simple, practical interventions to improve wellbeing: breathwork (nasal breathing, taping mouth at night), circadian alignment (morning sunlight exposure, reducing nighttime overhead/blue light), and sleep hygiene. He contrasts a profit-driven centralized healthcare model with individual responsibility, describes quick timelines for improvement (breath for immediate change, water in days, nutrition over weeks), and points listeners to free resources (e.g., 30in30.org) and programs (nine-day jumpstart).

Questions this episode answers

Approximately 23,000 ("up to 23,000 plus or minus breaths every single day").

About 50% ("about 50% of people breathe through their mouths").

About two thirds ("about two thirds of people sleep with their mouth open at night").

He claims participants can lose anywhere from seven to ten pounds in nine days ("we have a program called a nine day jumpstart where we show people that in nine days they can lose anywhere from seven to ten pounds").

30in30.org (he describes a free 30-day program of daily short videos and emails).
