American Thought Leaders - Dr. Marty Makary: When Medical Consensus Fails—From Low-Fat Diets to Peanut Bans to Overuse of Antibiotics (09/17/24, podcast 01:06:00)
Jan Jekielek interviews Dr. Marty Makary, a surgeon, professor at Johns Hopkins University, and author of “Blind Spots: What Medicine Gets Wrong, and What It Means for Our Health.”
“We’ve got to recognize now the best practices are exactly opposite of what the medical establishment pounded into pediatricians for 15 years.” ~Dr. Marty Makary
This episode explores medical groupthink in which health recommendations caused disastrous results, including diabetes, peanut allergies, opioids, C-sections, and the low-fat diet.
“The medical establishment created a dogma in 1955 that fat was bad for your health. It was based on one guy: Dr. Ancel Keys,” ~Dr. Makary.
[ED NOTE: Mass vaccination is another one-size-fits-all medical dogma.]
Can America reverse the trend of chronic disease and poor metabolic health?
“The foundation of the medical profession is not to have a one-size-fits-all. It’s always to consider nuance and to consider scientific detail.” ~Dr. Makary.
