The history of medicine is riddled with shifting paradigms, disproven theories, and treatment protocols that may not be beneficial. Dr. Bryan Walsh is a naturopathic physician with a humble and deep curiosity which frames his unique approach to practicing medicine. By continually questioning the norm, he reminds us to dig deeper and follow the literature on topics that the medical community currently accepts as true.
Today’s episode is part one of our in-depth interview with Dr. Walsh where he discusses new ways of looking at detoxification and glucose regulation.
“We’ve been wrong before, what makes us think we’re right now. Let’s question things.” – Dr. Bryan Walsh
