Dr. Joseph Antoun: Episode 69 Oct 22, 2021

Show notes

Welcome to Protecting Your Nest with Dr. Tony Hampton. Dr. Joseph Antoun is the CEO and Chairman of the Board of L-Nutra, a nutrition technology company dedicated to enhancing longevity and healthy aging. Having always desired to direct his professional efforts toward bettering peoples' lives, he didn't realize that—in entering the health care field as a doctor—he was entering a "sick care" versus a health care system. For this reason, he decided to regroup and focus on "health span" which is an approach to human health that prioritizes leading a long, high quality life. Realizing that health policy and public health were crucial aspects of achieving this vision, he has also spent much effort in seeking to have an impact in these areas as well.

In their discussion, Drs. Tony and Joseph talk about the pillars of longevity, the role of spiritual and relational fulfillment with regard to total physical wellness, the power of fasting in the framework of longevity, the essence of a healthful human diet, the flexatarian and pescatarian diets and their historical significance, when dietary protein is healthy and in what amounts, and what is actually happening to your body when you sleep.
