Ask Me Anything: Straight From the Medical Journals | The Deep Six | Episode 45

This week on The Deep Six, Dr. Lewerenz trades listener questions for medical journals, pulling from recent issues of the New England Journal of Medicine and The Journal of the American Medical Association to share what's actually being studied and why it matters to you. He covers the surprising cognitive benefits of coffee and tea, the overlooked link between autoimmune disease and cancer risk, new evidence that gut health directly impacts depression and antidepressant effectiveness, and a silent cardiovascular threat hiding in most standard lab panels. This is what staying ahead of your health actually looks like!
