  • Simple and Safe Evidence-Based Ways to Reduce Autism Risk From a Physician and a Father On a Mission
    This episode is brought to you by BiOptimizers, Birch Living, and Our Place. Autism rates have increased fivefold over the past twenty years. While much remains unknown about how children develop autism, research suggests that the rise in cases may not be explained by increased diagnoses alone. Today’s guest takes us on a deep dive into autism and shares his proposals for reducing these rates. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Dr. Jeff Zadeh for a deep dive into autism and the research he’s uncovered on key strategies that may reduce the likelihood of a child being diagnosed with autism. While Dr. Jeff acknowledges that much remains unknown about why some children are on the autism spectrum, he highlights the top nutrients and vitamins women should focus on before pregnancy to help lower the risk. From dosages to deficiencies, Dr. Jeff breaks down what the research shows so far. He also shares his personal journey with his son’s diagnosis and what inspired him to begin exploring this topic in depth. Dr. Jeff Zadeh, a board-certified internist with nearly 30 years of experience, founded Dallas Medical Specialists in 2005 and later moved his practice to rural North Texas, where he serves as a hospitalist, trauma director, and emergency physician. After his oldest son was diagnosed with autism, he discovered research suggesting many cases may be preventable through prenatal counseling, yet most physicians were unaware of it. Inspired by this and the work of Dr. David Berger, he wrote Autism Prevention 5 Days a Week to share simple, evidence-based prevention strategies in accessible language. In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Zadeh dive into: Dr. Zadeh’s personal journey with his son’s autism diagnosis (00:55) Dr. Zadeh’s medical background and the challenges of obtaining a diagnosis (8:50) The importance of supplementation before conception (27:32) What to look for in prenatal vitamins (45:27) The 5-day-a-week proposal and the studies behind it (49:55) Maintaining sufficient iron levels in women (1:06:33) Why checking thyroid levels before pregnancy is essential (1:15:21) Environmental toxin exposures affecting pregnancy (1:15:26) The risks of taking Tylenol during pregnancy (1:27:23) The connection between celiac disease and autism (1:31:35) How increasing DHA omega-3 and vitamin D intake may lower the risk of autism (1:35:32) The role of choline in autism prevention (1:51:12) Key factors we should pay attention to (1:54:47) Dr. Zadeh’s reflections as a parent of a child on the autism spectrum (2:00:20) Final thoughts and takeaways (2:07:30) Also mentioned in this episode: Dr. Jeff Zadeh’s Slides Autism Prevention 5 Days a Week Dr. Rhonda Patrick BPA Instagram Post  For more on Dr. Zadeh, follow him on X/Twitter and visit his Website.

  • The Universe Is Sending You Signs: Are You Listening? How to Fine Tune Your Intuition to Step Into Your Purpose and Dream Life with Dr. Tara Swart
    This episode is brought to you by Cozy Earth, LMNT, and Fatty15. Have you ever had a sign or a gut feeling that you brushed off as a coincidence? What if those moments weren’t random at all, but subtle guidance pointing you in the right direction? On today’s episode, we explore how these signs show up in our lives, why we often miss them, and how understanding the science behind intuition can help us tune in and act with clarity. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with world-renowned neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart to explore the key signs of greater intelligence that often appear in our lives. She explains how our modern world can prevent us from noticing these signs and receiving guidance, and how the brain itself acts as a filter. Through practices such as visualization and intention-setting, we can activate the reticular activating system to better recognize opportunities that align with our goals. Dr. Tara also breaks down the science of intuition and “signs,” showing how gut feelings and dreams are rooted in real brain-body connections, while offering practical tools to rewire limiting beliefs. She reminds us that transformation isn’t magic, but rather biology combined with aligned action. Dr. Tara Swart is a PhD neuroscientist and Oxford University-trained medical doctor. She is Senior Advisor for Neuroscience and Leadership at MIT Sloan School of Management, best-selling author of The Source, and a Trustee of the Lady Garden Foundation. Tara is the Chief Science Officer at Dirtea, an adaptogenic mushroom company, and the Mind Ambassador at Healf.com. Tara is passionate about empowering people through the intersection of science and spirituality. In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Swart dive into:  Dr. Tara’s personal story of loss, grief, and her journey with signs and patterns (1:10) Fundamental beliefs we accept without proof and a discussion on near-death experiences (7:02) What Dr. Tara realized after her husband’s death and the greater source present in the universe (17:24) The importance of having community (20:17) Dhru’s personal story of signs after loss (21:25) How Dr. Tara navigated her grief and what led her to write her book (38:50) Why sharing your experiences with signs matters and how to identify your own (47:14) Finding a sense of purpose through signs (1:07:00) Practices to help us access and strengthen our intuition (1:18:57) The power of journaling (1:23:21) What to do when you ask for a sign and don’t get one (1:29:56) Feeling connected to signs while staying grounded in real life (1:34:35) The consequences of ignoring the signs life gives us (1:41:45) Final thoughts and takeaways (1:45:55) Also mentioned in this episode: The Signs: The New Science of How to Trust Your Instincts - Dr. Tara’s new book  For more on Dr. Swart, follow her on Facebook, X/Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, or visit her Website.
