- Cardiovascular disease is increasingly prevalent among South Asians, particularly Indian immigrants. The rise of this health issue, especially among younger Indian Americans, is attributed not only to lifestyle factors but also to cultural beliefs surrounding success and a lack of emphasis on prioritizing health. Today’s guest joins us in dissecting these nuances and encouraging individuals to focus on longevity.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Dr. Manickam Palaniappan (Dr. Pal) to discuss the dangers of belly fat and visceral fat, particularly among the South Asian population. Dr. Pal explains why South Asians should be cautious even if they have a "normal" lipid profile but aren't considered obese by traditional standards. He also shares his personal journey, which led to a deeper understanding of true health and the challenges immigrants face in achieving success. Dr. Pal provides top tips on optimal fiber and protein intake and identifies the risk factors for heart disease.
Dr. Manickam Palaniappan is a renowned gastroenterologist recognized for his expertise in digestive health and innovative treatment approaches. Currently serving as a leading gastroenterologist at a major medical center, Dr. Palaniappan is highly respected for his skill in managing complex gastrointestinal disorders, including inflammatory bowel disease, liver diseases, and colorectal cancer. His commitment to patient care is matched by his involvement in cutting-edge research, contributing to numerous peer-reviewed publications that have advanced the field of gastroenterology.
In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Pal dive into:

Very true.
Everybody has an accent even within a country . Have to be a good listener not spend time evaluating the accent. Have to get used to an unfamiliar accent not a “bad” accent
Many key points
Brain Gut connection
Need Mucin barrier with healthy bacteria
Eliminate Ultra Processed Food
Increase Protein which is satiety
Increase muscle mass with resistance training
Balanced diet
Watch calorie intake
Eliminate all purpose flour
Sleep is critical to good health
Quality of food is Second
Cut out fried foods
Muscle mass helps on many levels
Indians are more susceptible to cardiovascular disease than other cultures
Protein has became Jesus or mohamad 😂
Not Indians but South Asians
By Indians I mean those of us with family of origin of India.
@@AngelWings1983 I am aware I’m of Indian origin too and I live in the Bay Area. I meant let us use South Asians instead of just Indians because the Paks, Banglas and Sri Lankans are just as susceptible to this awful genetics as us Indians!
Us Indians and American Indians especially Tamil speaking have been following Dr Pal’s channels in you tube for ages now. He is gastroenterologist practicing in Sacramento CA! Lucky patients! I live in the Bay Area and would love him to be my dr
I have listened to many podcasts and usually they do not mention so much details eg the gut as Dr Pal does. Excellent podcast very informative. Greetings from Turkey. I love India, I lived there during the 1970s.
Thanks a ton to both of you🙏 such an informative and detailed podcast. I am a big fan of Dr. Pal
Excellent discussion!! Really enjoyed listening to this informative discussion. Health is wealth. We only have one life so take good care of it.
Very informative and interesting.
Thank you both, very interesting discussion with some great actionable points.
Hi doc... shocking that you had an attack... good that you have come out of that ❤i follow you gutman and try to do my best every day.... thank you so much 🙏
One of the best videos I've watched and informative.
Very important message .Thanks a lot to both of you.
Fabulous podcast! Yes it takes effort to record what you’re eating for two weeks but it’s an eye opener to how much food you eat in a day and where the majority of calories come from in your diet. I personally follow the 80/20 rule. Eat 80 % of the food on the plate and leave 20 % behind no matter how healthy the food is to not be overly satiated but comfortable full.
Excellent video Thank you Dr Pal . It was so informative and you explained in simple terms
He ia a fantastic human too. Lets follow this man and make him proud
Thank you for this much needed information. It gave such clarity into my struggle 🙏
Fantastic podcast
Thankyou
Thank you both very informative and interesting.
Important to pay attention to this information
Thank you so much, this was great!
wow Dr Pal... great to see you here
Wow didn’t know Dr Pal had a heart attack!
I absolutely loved this podcast. Love his humour and love his voice. And even though I’m a white Canadian girl, I took so much away from it. Lol! Thank you!
Omg Dhru let Dr. Pal speak!!!
He interrupts and talks about himself a lot and we miss the teaching from the expert. He keeps summarizing what Dr Pal said!
Loved it!
Thanks Dr Pal
There's always a difficulty to be completely normal to be healthy, Slightly lower levels are not appreciated, then what for living is necessary 😅
Dr. Pals laugh is super funny & contagious!
I love Indian food. My problem of it is for me it is very spicy and I have to eat rice with it even though I am a low carb high fat eating kind of guy.
Also, I don't know if they use coconut oil or seed oil. As delicious as their food is, I am a little hesitate to eat it too often.
Dhru your podcast is awesome
Please get Sally Norton and Ian Clark from activation product
Thanks
While I really appreciate the information given by other experts on this show, their approach is mostly focussed on restricting on all foods except meat. What I like about this Doc's approach is that he focuses on improving your gut biome and improving your insulin senstivity so you can eat a variety of real foods and can get back to eating normal foods. With the other approach, especially for somebody like me, you begin to wonder what you can actually eat
Fantastic
How do we increase this butrate thingy in our gut?
Well, my uncle is 90 and he has a huge belly. He has had the belly at least for the last 40 years😂
Outlier for sure
It would interesting to know / find out, if it is visceral fat behind the huge belly.
Dr Pal what are the good sources of Vitamin A in South India. I heard some beta carotene sources cannot get converted to Vitamin A. how to handle dry eyes? Could you please put a video on this?
Please note that seed oils freshly done without emulcifiers are available in India. But bottled seed oil has emulsifiers. So dont stereotypicalizebseed oil. Canola oil removed genes glucosinolates and erucic acid from mustard oil which is known to cause heart attacks.
I need to go back to my intermittent fasting!
A cheap food scale will show you how many calories you’re eating. Nuts, for example are insane.
Counting calories is a complete waste of time. I lost 88 pounds and did not count one calorie.
@@rustybales6826 if you lost it fasting you were in a calorie deficit.. Some people would rather lower carbs and not do extended fasts.
So much interruption to the explanation !!!
Dear Dr, it's all about food they getting from food market they eating please look inside food ingredient are not good for the Human body olden days we use to eat same food now food market have change in food ingredient .
Look at it from a positive aspect😅 Our South Asian ancestors survived numerous famines and so we became "starvation-adapted". This was a GOOD thing in the past, our bodies storing fat in the belly was a key survival strategy for when food was scarce. Indian babies are born with higher fat reserves - in case we undergo another famine, survival kicks in😊. Unfortunately, this works against us in an environment of much abundance such as in the West. South Asians make up 1/4 of the world's population for a damn good reason. It's because our thrifty genes ensured our survival!😂
.the OG Dr.pal ...the gutman himself
U guys should eat more plant based protein, veggies, nuts, seeds, go to bed early. Do yoga & sleep in saunas. Never stay up late or go dancing, Meditate because you need to fix your mind from worrying obsessively if you miss a wink of sleep . Yoga is so great to teach you how to breathe thru suffering. Bread Pasta Ice Cream & meat is not for you. Don't drink booze at all. Just eat work and sleep. Never eat junk food, candy, cake, chips,and if you do it will make you sick forever immediately. You can't rely on your body to heal itself and you can't trust it Routine, routine, routine.
I must have missed the never eat junk food part. Where was that? At what time stamp?👀🤔🧐
Well, have fun not taking care of your health and good luck taking care of your disease. Listen to your bad bacteria instead of this doctor and feed them what they need in order to survive. Keep eating junk food that won't nourish your body and then worry about why you have diabetes, high blood pressure, heart attacks and dementia. Much better options. 👀🤔🧐🫣😒😏🙄
Another idiot saying plant based is good smh
Nothing wrong with meat.
I have to disagree with a few of your points :) PLANT-BASED PROTEIN: The majority of plant-based protein is somewhat limited as far as the amino acid profile - adding in some quality animal protein helps you achieve this. DANCING: A good thing and brings joy to the soul! BOOZE: Although there are many negative implications out there on this subject; a minimal amount is not necessarily a deal-breaker for good health. THE BODY: You CAN rely on your body to heal itself - IF you treat it well. The body is an *AMAZING* machine!
Good intention:there is also an addiction to listen to one self about oneself talking.... Before letting guests talk.... 😉
Environmental toxins in food, water and air: what else you expect! X syndrome or say starving genes 🧬! Insulin resistance: India is diabetic capital 😭

😂😂😂😂 this doc is funny
Sorry, hard to understand his English.
Really??
Please turn closed captions on
It is not his English that is difficult to understand, it is the fact that he is talking too fast and letting his voice to open up thoroughly. In his channel, he used to open up his voice completely. However, a thought privoking podcast.
Good. Dont listen
It is not english. You dont understand technical stuff
HIS ACCENT IS WAY TOO STRONG!!
Seriously! From all the important things he talked about, that’s your conclusion? And something else, that’s your opinion nobody cares about. Good bye.
I wonder what your Hindi sounds like.
