Description

One of our most entertaining conversations ever, with the ebullient Low-Carb MD, Brian Lenzkes. We get to hear about the differences between a medical office that depends on insurance for payment and one that doesn't. We learn about a grotesque misalignment of incentives between physicians, insurance companies and patients - who wins, and who loses. And we learn about the doctor banned for giving nutrition advice to his own patients. As always, if you wanna know who's really calling the shots, follow the money.Mentioned in this conversation Websites:  LowCarbMD.com and LowCarbMDSanDiego.comLife's Best Medicine DPC Alliance  (Direct Primary Care)Twitter: @BrianLenzkesThe Biochemistry of Insulin ResistanceProf. Timothy Nokes - The Lore of RunningDr. Gary Fettke - orthopedic surgeon banned for giving nutrition adviceEpisode Snippets:4:37 -5:32 - What's that crazy diet that helps lose weight?10:57 - 11:26 - Low carb diet as a treatment for diabetes14:37 - 16:15 - Making people healthy doesn’t pay the bills 20:56 - 22:00 - Reaching 20% of people who really care26:00 - 27:25 - Making insulin work33:46 - 34:33 - The healthcare system needs to be fixed37:01 - 38:18 - It’s way more expensive to send patients to ER41:32 - 42:08 - Building a community to help each other44:29 - 45:02 - Newly diagnosed diabetic is the easiest patient49:40 - 50:30 - Life’s best medicine51:26 - 51:55 - Fixing the stress problem56:04 - 56:42 - Are we serving the patients or someone else?1:00:06 - 1:00:45 - The importance of building relationshipsConnect with Dr. Ovadia:TwitteriFixHearts WebsiteStay Off My Operating Table WebsiteAmazon Theme Song : Rage AgainstWritten & Performed by Logan Gritton & Colin Gailey(c) 2016 Mercury Retro RecordingsProduced by 38atoms & Jack Heald

He was a morbidly obese heart surgeon. Through high school, college, med school and surgical training, he followed the U.S. dietary guidelines for both diet and exercise. Yet nothing he did could keep the weight off. Each day in the operating theater he would split open the chests of people just like himself. He was heading for the operating table and knew he had to find solutions that worked. In 2016, he finally found a way to lose 100 pounds and keep it off. Now - in addition to doing heart surgery - he helps people just like himself get healthy, lose the weight and keep it off. Dr. Philip Ovadia is now a rebel M.D. working to keep people OFF his operating table.
