Metabolic Freedom With Ben Azadi Doug Fears | A Biohacking Success Story That Can Teach Us a Lot KKP: 680
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Doug Fears. He is a senior adviser (non-resident) at the Center for Strategic and International Studies and the chief operating office of Artis International, a company specializing in integrating artificial intelligence and behavioral science.
Growing up on the eastern shore of Maryland along the Chesapeake Bay, he was naturally drawn to a life on the water. This inclination led him to enlist in the Coast Guard in 1982, initially with no intention of making a long-term commitment. However, Doug's initial four-year plan transformed into a 40-year career. Eventually, Doug transitioned into roles centered on policy and D.C., focusing primarily on federal budgeting. He closely collaborated with the House of Representatives, the Office of Budget and Programs, and the National Security Council staff. His career path afforded him profound insights into governmental operations and the intricacies of public policy.
In this episode, Doug discusses his life journey and delves into the concerning state of government nutrition policies. He reveals the significant influence of industry interests, underscores the importance of metabolic health during the pandemic. Tune in as we engage in a conversation about the necessity for unbiased research and funding to support evidence-based, empirically sound health recommendations.
