Tobacco Control: Data, Industry Tactics, and Policy Wins

My guest today on The Dr. Hyman Show, Dr. Tom Frieden has spent decades proving how small, smart changes can save millions of lives. 

We talk about his new book, The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives—Including Your Own—a fascinating look at what really works to prevent disease and rebuild public trust. We also dive into his See–Believe–Create framework—how it connects public policy with personal action to make prevention the easy choice.

Catch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. 

We unpack: 

• Why rebuilding trust in public health is key to protecting your own wellbeing 

• How balancing sodium and potassium could transform your heart health 

• What the food industry learned from Big Tobacco—and how to take back control of your choices 

• Simple policy shifts that could save millions of lives and make prevention easier for everyone 

• How AI and team-based care could shape a future of medicine that works for you 

We already know what works. The challenge is putting it into action. This conversation is about how each of us can help create that change, one small step at a time.
