What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

As a clinician (who listens only to medical/health podcasts), what I appreciate most about Dr. Perlmutter is not just what he knows (he’s very sharp!), but *how* he communicates it. He has an uncanny ability to translate and summarize complex, dense research in a way that makes it accessible, but not overly simplistic. A rare skill set!

One of my favorite podcasts because it’s so packed with great information. The only downside is it’s always difficult to listen to because of the poor sound quality

I really like this podcast and especially enjoyed the one about seed oils last year. I shared it with a few people and appreciated the simple and clear explanations. I also loved the recent episode with Dr. Youn. I was fascinated about autophagy and skin health because I recently completed the Prolon 5-day fasting mimicking diet and my skin seriously never looked better. It was glowing, lost the dark circles and dryness and I looked younger in a matter of days. People were commenting on my skin. There is clearly a link here!

Dr P always has great, researched info to share and seems to truly want to help people become healthy. However I often feel that many of his guests are there bc he and they have a I’ll wash your back and you wash mine agreement. Or plainly said let’s agree to promote on another’s books. That said, the info shared is still worthwhile.
