Dave Asprey sits down with Siggi Clavien, founder of The Liver Clinic, to discuss the underdiagnosed epidemic of fatty liver disease, explaining how even lean, sober individuals can develop significant liver fat. The conversation covers why standard blood tests often fail to catch early liver damage, the role of FibroScan imaging, and how the liver influences metabolism, hormone health, brain fog, and longevity. Short sections on GLP-1 weight loss, microchimerism, and the importance of nutrients like choline and glutathione provide a broad view of liver health.
