📺 Max Gulhane MD
Dr Sean O’Mara joins me again to talk all things VISCERAL FAT. We cover the reasons why this key indicator of human disease is not being identified, diagnosed or treated, and why you need an abdominal MRI if you want to optimize your health.
Dr Sean O’Mara is a former Emergency Physician turned Lifestyle Physician with a specialty in elite tier-human performance optimization. He routinely uses full-body MRI scanning to identify metabolically-damaging visceral fat and guides his special cohort of patients through the most effective ways of eliminating it.
