   Jul 8, 2026

   Welcome back to Intentional Medicine with Dr. Singh, where we explore what it truly means to design health within a system built to manage disease. In this episode, we’re cutting through the noise of peptides, hormones, and advanced diagnostics to focus on the often-overlooked foundations of health: sleep, movement, and metabolic stability.

4. Redefining Health: Intentional Medicine and Why Prevention Matters More Than Ever

   Mar 23, 2026

   Welcome to the first episode of Intentional Medicine with Dr. Priti Singh, where we pull back the curtain on what it means to truly take control of your health in a system designed to manage disease, not prevent it. Hosted Dr. Priti Singh, an internal medicine physician and founder of Eterna Wellness MD, this episode dives into why our healthcare system excels at crisis response but falls short when it comes to long-term vitality and prevention. You'll hear stories straight from the hospital trenches, explore why so many patients and providers are feeling rushed, unheard, and underserved, and discover why Dr. Priti Singh believes it's time to rethink how we practice medicine. The conversation breaks down what intentional medicine actually is (hint: it's not just another buzzword or new specialty) and outlines its four pillars: building a strong foundation, measuring what matters, personalizing care, and regenerating health responsibly. If you’ve ever felt lost in the maze of medical information or frustrated by one-size-fits-all solutions, this episode is your guide to proactive, empowering care that helps you not just live, but thrive. Whether you’re already on your wellness journey, just getting started, or searching for a better approach, Intentional Medicine delivers practical wisdom for anyone who wants to design a life of lasting health, on purpose. 00:00 "Gradual Realization of System Flaws" 03:44 Aging, Healthcare, and Personal Reflections 08:37 "Foundations First in Medicine" 10:36 "Intelligent Personalized Health Care" 14:41 Disease Prevention Starts Early 17:04 "Intentional Medicine and Social Media" 20:59 "Ethical Duty: Share Right Info" 24:33 "Intentional Medicine: Redefining Health" https://eternawellnessmd.com/services/ https://intentionalmedicineshow.com/
