📩 Contact us: talkingwithdocs@gmail.com Most people think health comes down to diet, exercise, and genetics. But in this episode, the doctors explain why where you live may be having a bigger impact on your health than you realize. From climate and air quality to cost of living, stress, noise, and social environments, we break down how your surroundings quietly influence your body every single day. Many of these factors are overlooked, yet they shape inflammation, heart health, mental health, sleep, and long-term disease risk. This is not about blame. It is about awareness. You’ll learn: - How climate and air quality affect your lungs, heart, and inflammation - Why financial pressure and cost of living increase chronic stress - How noise, crowding, and social environments impact sleep and mental health - The link between environment, stress hormones, and long-term disease - What doctors look at when patients feel unwell despite “doing everything right” If you have ever wondered why your health feels harder to manage despite good habits, this episode explains why your environment may be playing a bigger role than you think. 🎧 Listen on Your Favourite Platforms: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3OFxEjictC41CCS1z2AVKe Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/talking-with-docs/id1799242189 YouTube Music: • TWD Podcast 👕 Shop Our MERCH: https://www.spreadshirt.ca/shop/user/talking+with+docs/ ❤️ Support Oakville Hospital: https://donate.oakvillehospitalfoundation.com 📱 Follow Us: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@talkingwithdocs Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/talkingwithdocs/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/Talking-with-Docs-100066771782727/ 🛑 DISCLAIMER: This content is for educational purposes only.
