Dr. Robert and I discuss why metabolic dysfunction may be the root cause behind many chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, and even mental illness. We dive into how modern medicine often treats symptoms instead of root causes, why lifestyle and metabolic therapies can reverse disease progression, and how low-carb and ketogenic diets may improve long-term health outcomes. Make sure to listen to the full interview to learn more.

Dr. Robert Lufkin is a physician, radiologist, medical school professor, and New York Times bestselling author of Lies I Taught in Medical School. After developing multiple chronic diseases himself, he began researching metabolic health, longevity, and lifestyle medicine, eventually reversing his own conditions through nutrition and lifestyle changes.
