120: Cardiometabolics and the ANS f/ Sanjay Bhojraj MD

In this episode, we have the pleasure to sit down with Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj, an interventional cardiologist turned functional medicine advocate, to explore the world of optimal health for high performers. Dr. Bhojraj shares his compelling journey from the front lines of cardiac emergencies to a holistic approach focused on diet, lifestyle, and root-cause healing. The conversation is packed with insights into how small changes, like improving sleep, managing stress, and tuning into the body’s autonomic nervous system, can have a profound impact on cardiovascular and overall health.

Together, we dive into the myths still being taught in medical schools, discuss emerging biomarkers like Clotho for longevity, and highlight the underestimated power of nutrition, mindset, and even innovative tech like bioelectric suits and vagus nerve stimulation. Real-world examples show how ancient wisdom and modern science can blend to heal, rather than just treat, chronic conditions.

If you’re curious about the difference between treating and truly healing, this episode is a must-listen!
