DR JOHN LA PUMA What an Indoor Life is Actually Doing to Your Health

John La Puma, MD, ChefMD™ is a two-time New York Times bestselling author, board-certified internist, and professionally trained chef who pioneered Culinary Medicine. He now pioneers EcoMedicine from his small regenerative teaching farm. His upcoming book, Indoor Epidemic, reveals how spending 93% of life indoors steals sleep, focus, and years, and how reclaiming just 7% outdoors can restore them using the evidence-based Outdoor Rx framework. This is clinically validated intervention, presenting nature as foundational medicine, an essential component of health and the missing pillar in optimizing longevity and healthspan. In this episode, Dr. John La Puma shares how our "indoor epidemic" of spending 93% of life inside harms sleep, mood, metabolism, and longevity—and how a small, intentional daily dose of nature, light, air, and movement can reset our biology and regenerate our health.   RESOURCES: Learn more about Dr. John here: https://www.drjohnlapuma.com/ Get his book Inside Epidemic here: https://www.drjohnlapuma.com/shop-drlapuma/ Get 10% off Peluva minimalist shoe with coupon code COACHTARA here: http://peluva.com/coachtara   CHAPTERS: 00:00 – Intro 01:27 – Sponsor: Peluva barefoot shoe ad 03:13 – Dr. John La Puma on Indoor Epidemic 06:07 – How indoor life drives inflammation and chronic disease 08:20 – Screen time, eye strain, and the myopia explosion 11:10 – Nature as medicine: light, air, movement, digital obesity 15:40 – Outdoor Rx: 17–43 minutes of intentional nature time 26:23 – Real‑world stories: factories, offices, ADHD and burnout 36:52 – Regenerative teaching farm and rethinking "environment" 41:30 – Nature as original GLP‑1 & where to learn more   WORK WITH TARA: Are You Looking for Help on Your Wellness Journey?
