Inflammation, Fibrosis, and Aging: The Galectin-3 Story | Dr. Joel Kahn

About this episode

Dr. Joel Kahn discusses the dangers of inflammation and fibrosis, focusing on the biomarker galectin-3 and its implications for health.

In this episode, Dr. Z sits down with Dr. Kahn to uncover what's really happening inside the body to destroy health before an event ever occurs. You'll learn why chronic inflammation becomes dangerous when it turns fibrotic, how galectin-3 acts as a switch for tissue damage, and the test you should take to check your levels. Even more importantly, Dr. Kahn reveals the natural strategy he believes deserves far more attention: modified citrus pectin. A highly researched compound to help inhibit galectin-3, support heavy metal detoxification, and protect long-term organ function.
