Ask The Doctor - Dr Michael Lange

AskTheDoctor_090625

On today’s episode of Ask the Dr., hosted by Dr. Michael Lange and Roger Schulman, we dive into powerful, natural strategies to support men’s health, prostate health, testosterone, and longevity.

Dr. Lange discusses the importance of building health from the inside out — focusing on nutrition, exercise, and targeted supplementation to optimize wellness, muscle function, and cellular protection.

A major highlight of the show was the discussion on non-denatured whey protein concentrate, particularly sourced from New Zealand. Dr. Lange explains how a high-quality whey protein, like Fortifeye Super Protein, helps stimulate the body’s natural production of glutathione, one of the most powerful antioxidants in the body, while also supporting lean muscle synthesis and recovery.

The show also covered one of the most important foods for men’s health — broccoli sprouts. Rich in sulforaphane, broccoli sprouts may help support prostate health, testosterone balance, detoxification pathways, and glutathione production.

Dr. Lange also emphasized the importance of cooked tomatoes, tomato paste, and tomato sauce, which are rich in lycopene, a key nutrient linked to prostate health and longevity. Dr. Lange and Roger shared their own morning workout routine and discussed their post-workout recovery protocol, including orange juice combined with creatine monohydrate (Creapure®) and MyHMB, designed to support muscle recovery, strength, and performance.

During the show, Dr. Lange outlined three key things to look for on a whey protein label: 
• Non-denatured protein 
• Cold-processed / undamaged proteins 
• Sourced from high-quality, grass-fed cows (preferably New Zealand)

Callers joined the show with a variety of health questions, and the hosts also talked about the incredible success of this year’s Lange Eye Institute Mardi Gras Festival, thanking the community for their support.

Dr. Lange also shared a simple, powerful men’s longevity stack that includes: 
• Non-denatured whey protein 
• Broccoli sprouts 
• Pomegranate

Finally, Dr. Lange gave a preview of an exciting upcoming launch — Fortifeye Fit Meal, a fully transparent, doctor-developed meal replacement designed for weight management, metabolism, anti-aging, and longevity, combining advanced nutrition with cutting-edge ingredient science. 

If you’re looking to improve your health naturally and take control of your longevity, this episode is packed with practical, science-based insights.

#1 Vegetable for Men’s Health (Backed by Science!)

This week’s Ask the Dr was broadcast LIVE from the Lange Eye Institute with Dr. Michael Lange and Dr. Susan Summerton, along with special guests from the Fortifeye team and community.

We also celebrated a big Mardi Gras event at the Lange Eye Institute from 10 AM to 2 PM, featuring Cajun food, music, and great deals on Fortifeye vitamins, frames, and lenses. The entire staff got into the spirit, dressed in festive Mardi Gras attire, including Dr. Lange and Dr. Summerton, making it a fun and energetic day for patients and visitors. 

Tony shared his incredible transformation, going from 320 pounds down to 270 pounds and now focusing on building lean muscle and improving his overall health. His journey highlights the importance of weight management for both eye health and total body wellness. 

Tasha from Fortifeye Vitamins and Lange Eye Institute discussed the event and what attendees could expect, while Dr. Lange introduced Taylor Moncado, the new Managing Director of Fortifeye Vitamins. Taylor is a perfect fit with his strong background in nutrition and sports performance. 

A Meta representative also joined the show to discuss the latest in Meta smart glasses and how wearable technology is evolving. 

Dr. Lange and Dr. Summerton emphasized the importance of weight management for improved ocular health and overall health, explaining how inflammation, metabolism, and nutrition all play a key role. 

They also discussed new Fortifeye innovations including the all new Fortifeye Creapure Creatine and MyHMB supplement designed to support muscle strength, recovery, and metabolism, as well as the upcoming Fortifeye Fit Meal, a next generation meal replacement for weight management, longevity, and wellness. 

Omega-3 was a major topic, with Dr. Lange emphasizing it as one of the most important supplements when taken in the proper form. High quality omega-3 in the re-esterified triglyceride (rTG) form offers superior absorption. Fortifeye Super Omega-3 Max delivers high potency rTG omega-3 and is one of the most pure and potent formulations available.
