Presenter Bio

Alejandro Junger, MD, is a New York Times best-selling author and founder of health and wellness company CLEAN. A Uruguayan-born cardiologist and Functional Medicine practitioner, Dr. Junger is known for working with A-list celebrities, singer-songwriters, and countless other patients seeking to restore the balance of health. CLEAN, launched in 2009, was inspired by Dr. Junger’s experiments to restore his own health. Dr. Junger was diagnosed with multiple ailments, and none of the traditional treatments that he was prescribed solved his issues. He went on a journey to look at other schools of medicine and found Ayurvedic medicine, among other things. He completed his postgraduate training in internal medicine at NYU Downtown Hospital and a fellowship in cardiovascular diseases at Lenox Hill Hospital before studying Eastern medicine in India. This led him to developing the CLEAN program.

Most recently, Dr. Junger launched his newest book, CLEAN 7, a seven-day detox program revealing the most powerful healing tools to eliminate chronic symptoms, illnesses, and common ailments.
