Inflammation is a brilliant lifesaver when you twist an ankle—and a silent danger when your body forgets how to turn it off. In this eye-opening episode of Backstage @ Upstage, host Hildy Grossman sits down with pulmonologist Dr. Sahil Patel to demystify the hidden biological forces shaping our health.
Together, they translate complex cellular science and modern environmental hazards—from microplastics and smog to the surge of chronic conditions in younger populations—into clear, practical takeaways. Dr. Patel reveals how short-term healing can mutate into tissue damage, interstitial lung disease, and cancer, while introducing the idea of an immune “thermostat” that balances over-active autoimmune responses against under-active cancer defenses. From cutting-edge diagnostic breakthroughs to next-generation therapies designed to cool down internal inflammation before disease takes hold, this essential conversation offers a masterclass in protecting your body from the inside out.
Tune in to discover how disease takes root—and how science is learning to stop it!
