Find YOUR Optimal Diet: How to Know What Actually Works | Dr Momo Vuyisich

Discover why universally healthy diets don't exist and how metatranscriptomics (RNA sequencing) can track biological aging and reverse chronic disease risk before symptoms start.

Dr. Vuyisich shares why sequencing microbial DNA only tells part of the story, and why tracking dynamic RNA expression (metatranscriptomics) is the true frontier of precision longevity. We explore why standard "superfoods" can trigger inflammation in specific individuals, how the gut microbiome loses structural resilience over decades due to preservatives and hidden antibiotics, and how Viome's AI engine maps complex molecular pathways like butyrate production and LPS endotoxins. Dr. Vuyisich also introduces his vision for a "Manhattan Project" for chronic illnesses like multiple sclerosis and pancreatic cancer, challenging the current reactive models of academia and pharmaceutical industries. Turn your data into actionable preventive medicine with this deep dive into systems biology. 📚 Chapters 0:00 Introduction to Dr. Momo Vuyisich & why he co-founded Viome 4:38 Is big pharma shifting toward prevention?
