“The body is constantly talking to us—we just don't listen anymore.”
We live faster, more efficiently, and more digitally than ever before. But with every step forward, many people lose touch with what should actually be guiding them: their own bodies. Instead, we confuse hunger with appetite, ignore thirst, and mask pain. Prof. Dr. Ingo Froböse is one of the most renowned experts on prevention and holistic health – and a guest on SMP LeaderTalks for the second time. He encourages us to listen more to the voice of our bodies again.
“Hunger, thirst, and pain are cries for help from our bodies.”
In this episode, Georgiy Michailov talks to Prof. Dr. Ingo Froböse about the language of the body and why we need to relearn it. The two discuss water as an underestimated performance factor, genuine hunger, and how interoception leads to better body awareness. They talk about intermittent fasting beyond weight loss, heart rate variability, and breathing as tools for self-regulation. Prof. Dr. Ingo Froböse also uses simple tests to show how anyone can realistically assess their vitality and independence.
