An intensive care physician who has spent 20 years watching preventable diseases destroy lives shares the brutal reality of what metabolic dysfunction looks like in the ICU - and the simple steps that could keep you out of his unit entirely.

Dr. Kwadwo Carmen-Tang pulls no punches as he describes the devastating cycle he witnesses daily: patients arriving with obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome, then leaving weaker, traumatized, and fundamentally changed by their ICU experience. But here's what medical school never taught him - these conditions are often completely reversible.

In this raw conversation, Dr. K breaks down the single most powerful intervention that could transform your metabolic health, explains why hospital food is finally changing, and shares his frustration with a healthcare system that treats symptoms instead of root causes. From his work implementing real food initiatives in Canadian hospitals to his grassroots approach to changing medicine from within, this ICU veteran is fighting to make prevention the priority it should have always been.

Whether you're a healthcare provider looking for practical tools or someone who wants to take control of their health trajectory, this episode delivers actionable strategies that could literally save your life. The movement toward metabolic health is real, and Dr. K is proving that change is possible - one protein-focused meal at a time.

BIG IDEA

"If we could avoid even half a percent, 2% of ICU admissions through metabolic health, man that's putting a dent in so many people's lives."

Dr. Nasha Winters shares her extraordinary journey from being diagnosed with terminal cancer at age 19 to becoming a pioneering force in metabolic oncology. Given just months to live and unable to receive chemotherapy, she embarked on a quest to understand cancer that led to groundbreaking insights about its metabolic and mitochondrial origins.

Winters challenges the conventional genetic theory of cancer, explaining how our bodies' "terrain" - influenced by nutrition, stress, toxins, and lifestyle - creates an environment where cancer either thrives or struggles. She details how modern life's rapid changes overwhelm our mitochondria, potentially leading to cancer when these cellular powerhouses can't properly process information.

Most provocatively, Dr. Winters reveals how aggressive cancer treatments can sometimes strengthen cancer by killing weaker cells while allowing stronger ones to thrive. She advocates for a balanced approach combining targeted conventional treatments with strategies to strengthen the body's terrain.

The conversation explores her innovative projects including a metabolic cancer data platform, specialized supplements, a research laboratory, and plans for an integrative oncology hospital on an organic farm in Arizona - all designed to revolutionize how we understand and treat cancer.

BIG IDEA

Cancer isn't simply genetic bad luck but rather a metabolic disease influenced by our environment, nutrition, and lifestyle - and by understanding these factors, we can dramatically improve prevention and treatment outcomes.

In this compelling discussion, vascular surgeon Dr. Lily Johnston joins Dr. Philip Ovadia to share her journey from traditional surgical practice to metabolic health advocacy. After years of amputating limbs for diabetic patients who received poor nutritional guidance, Dr. Johnston couldn't unsee the devastating consequences of our healthcare system's approach to metabolic disease. She explains how surgeons fix anatomical problems without addressing the underlying metabolic dysfunction that causes blood vessel disease throughout the body.

Dr. Johnston discusses how therapeutic carbohydrate reduction, hormone optimization, sleep quality, and stress management create better outcomes than surgery alone. She shares personal insights about her own health transformation through low-carb nutrition and her decision to create a practice balancing surgery with preventive care. The conversation reveals how traditional heart and vascular surgeries are temporary fixes that don't address root causes, leaving patients vulnerable to recurring problems.

This interview bridges the gap between conventional medicine and functional approaches to metabolic health, offering hope for those looking to avoid major surgical interventions through targeted lifestyle modifications.

BIG IDEA

Surgeons like Dr. Johnston and Dr. Ovadia have recognized that vascular and cardiac surgeries are temporary fixes—like placing buckets under a leaky roof rather than repairing the roof itself—and are now focusing on metabolic health interventions that address the root causes of disease.

Dr. Gurpreet Singh Padda shares his groundbreaking approach to chronic pain management that centers on fixing metabolic dysfunction rather than simply masking symptoms with medication. Drawing from his background in anesthesiology, pain management, addiction medicine, and technology, Dr. Padda explains the underlying connection between chronic pain and metabolic inflammation. He details how his patients achieve extraordinary results—85-90% of type 2 diabetics resolving their condition within three months and dramatic reductions in pain medication needs within weeks—through targeting the root metabolic causes rather than treating symptoms.

Dr. Padda challenges conventional medical approaches, revealing how our healthcare system's perverse incentives often work against patient healing. He discusses how vegetable oils contribute to inflammation, reduced bonding hormones, and fertility issues, while explaining why pain management must address insulin resistance, omega fatty acid imbalances, and mitochondrial dysfunction. His innovative assessment tools help patients visualize their health status and track improvement, creating a path to healing that addresses the true causes of chronic pain.

BIG IDEA

In 99% of chronic pain cases, the reason pain recurs is that the underlying issue of metabolic dysfunction hasn't been fixed—not because patients have a deficiency of pain medication.
