How Big Pharma Hijacked Evidence-Based Medicine: Dr. Aseem Malhotra and Dr. Kelly Victory Warn of Rising Influence of Pharmaceutical Corporations – Ask Dr. Drew – Episode 228

“Doctors and patients must appreciate how deeply and extensively drug regulators can’t be trusted so long as they’re captured by industry funding,” reads a quote from Donald Light in a recent presentation by Dr. Aseem Malhotra, warning of the rising influence of pharmaceutical corporations over individual physicians and drug safety studies.

Dr. Aseem Malhotra is a British cardiologist, public health campaigner, author of several books, and writer of newspaper articles. He campaigns for people to reduce sugar in their diet, promotes a low-carb and high-fat diet, and encourages the reduction of medical overprescribing. Dr. Aseem is an NHS Trained Consultant Cardiologist and visiting Professor of Evidence Based Medicine at Bahiana School of Medicine and Public Health, Salvador, Brazil. He is a world-renowned expert in the prevention of heart disease.
