I enjoyed chatting with

. I wanted to go deeper into his recent

Sensible Medicine

post about the cult developing around fitness and nutrition.

We covered:

• The benefits, realities, and limits of adopting healthy lifestyle changes.

• How believing that all of health boils down to a better diet and exercise can lead patients to wrongly believe they are responsible for all of their health issues.

• Why criticism of modern medicine is on the rise.

• How “medical reversal” highlights the need for evidence-based medical practices.

• The rise of longevity and why many longevity practices often lack robust evidence.

• Why personalized healthcare is essential for effective treatment.

• Problems with over-medicalization.

• How finding the right doctor can be a challenging process.
