Saturday, March 14, 2026
In this insightful episode of The Better Life, Dr. Pinkston welcomes Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj, a board-certified interventional cardiologist who transitioned from emergency heart procedures to the world of functional and integrative medicine. Dr. Bhojraj shares his "origin story," explaining how a decade of performing "oil changes" on the heart led him to realize that conventional medicine was missing the most critical part of the equation: the mental, emotional, and spiritual lifestyle factors that drive chronic disease.
The conversation dives deep into the "lost 20 years" where metabolic issues brew silently before a cardiac event occurs. Dr. Bhojraj introduces his Well12 program, a science-based approach to reversing insulin resistance and inflammation through light optimization, sleep, and whole-food nutrition. They also tackle the modern craze of GLP-1 medications, discussing how to use them as a "slingshot rather than a crutch" by prioritizing muscle preservation and long-term lifestyle shifts.
