Stay Off My Operating Table

Dr. Gurpreet Singh Padda shares his groundbreaking approach to chronic pain management that centers on fixing metabolic dysfunction rather than simply masking symptoms with medication. Drawing from his background in anesthesiology, pain management, addiction medicine, and technology, Dr. Padda explains the underlying connection between chronic pain and metabolic inflammation. He details how his patients achieve extraordinary results—85-90% of type 2 diabetics resolving their condition within three months and dramatic reductions in pain medication needs within weeks—through targeting the root metabolic causes rather than treating symptoms.Dr. Padda challenges conventional medical approaches, revealing how our healthcare system's perverse incentives often work against patient healing. He discusses how vegetable oils contribute to inflammation, reduced bonding hormones, and fertility issues, while explaining why pain management must address insulin resistance, omega fatty acid imbalances, and mitochondrial dysfunction. His innovative assessment tools help patients visualize their health status and track improvement, creating a path to healing that addresses the true causes of chronic pain.BIG IDEAIn 99% of chronic pain cases, the reason pain recurs is that the underlying issue of metabolic dysfunction hasn't been fixed—not because patients have a deficiency of pain medication.Gurpreet Singh Padda Contact InfoLinkedIn: -paddaPadda Institute Website: https://painmd.tv/Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

What happens when a physics graduate from the projects decides to return to professional boxing at age 40 after a nine-year hiatus? Ed Latimore's story defies every expectation you might have about both academic achievement and athletic excellence.In this candid conversation, Latimore shares the brutal realities behind his comeback fight, the hidden health issues that were sabotaging his performance for years, and the scientific approach he used to optimize his body at an age when most athletes have long retired. From discovering his thyroid was working against him to uncovering respiratory problems that mimicked COPD, his journey illustrates how even the healthiest among us can have invisible barriers to peak performance.But this isn't just a boxing story. Latimore articulates a philosophy that cuts straight to the heart of human limitation and choice. His insights about sacrifice, priority, and the mathematics of achievement apply whether you're trying to lose weight, build a business, or simply live with more intention.The conversation weaves through his upcoming memoir "Hard Lessons from the Hurt Business," his transition from fighter to writer, and the biomechanical insights he gained that revolutionized his understanding of athletic performance. Along the way, he demonstrates why sometimes the most efficient path isn't the best path for creation, and how constraints can become the foundation for extraordinary achievement.This is raw storytelling from someone who has lived at the intersection of intellectual rigor and physical combat, offering perspectives that challenge conventional wisdom about aging, health optimization, and what's actually possible when you refuse to accept limitations as permanent.BIG IDEAYou can have anything you want, you just can't have everything you want.Contact Info: Ed LatimoreTwitter:https://x.com/EdLatimoreInstagram: https://instagram.com/edlatimoreLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edlatimore/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EdLatimore1Website: https://edlatimore.comInvitee Email: edward.latimore@gmail.comSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

In this riveting conversation, Dr. Stephen Riggs shares his remarkable journey from conventional primary care physician to pioneering metabolic health specialist. After 30 years of traditional practice, everything changed when his wife handed him "The Obesity Code" by Dr. Jason Fung. Initially skeptical, Dr. Riggs tested the low-carb approach with his patients and witnessed transformations that defied his medical training: patients reversing type 2 diabetes, coming off insulin, and experiencing substantial weight loss in mere months.Dr. Riggs reveals how he built a comprehensive metabolic health clinic within a traditional healthcare system by meticulously tracking patient outcomes and demonstrating remarkable cost savings—over $550,000 annually in medication reductions from just 220 patients. He discusses his "Low Carb Bootcamp" program that achieves a 73% diabetes reversal rate and how his team approach incorporates health coaches, nutritionists, and food addiction specialists.Perhaps most fascinating is Dr. Riggs' observation that 95% of patients with food addiction see their addiction resolved within 8-12 weeks on a ketogenic diet—without specific addiction counseling. He offers practical insights on protein requirements, implementing lifestyle changes in America's heartland, and navigating resistance from colleagues and insurance companies.This conversation offers a powerful glimpse into how evidence-based nutritional interventions are quietly revolutionizing healthcare from within the system, bringing joy back to medicine by truly healing patients rather than merely managing their decline.BIG IDEA"Nutrition went from being basically irrelevant to me—I got almost zero nutritional training, what little I did was probably wrong—and now it's the biggest tool in my toolbox by far."Stephen Riggs, MD Contact InfoPersonal Website:www.livingbyDesignKetonutrition.com Metabolic Clinic Site:MercyOne.org/LivingbyDesign Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

In this candid conversation with Siouxie Bishoff, founder of Scrummy Sweets, we uncover the troubling truth behind food industry practices and ingredients. After struggling with health issues including a connective tissue disease and long-term Lyme, Siouxie began creating her own blood sugar-friendly gummy bears in her kitchen. What she discovered when trying to scale her homemade recipe to commercial production was shocking - manufacturers routinely use harmful chemicals while exploiting labeling loopholes to hide them from consumers.Siouxie shares her battle to maintain product integrity against industry pressure to cut corners, revealing how "natural flavors" can contain numerous concerning additives, and how ingredients banned in Europe for health concerns remain common in American products. Despite significantly higher production costs, she refuses to compromise on quality, sourcing organic ingredients and rejecting harmful additives.This conversation exposes the hidden health impacts of seemingly innocuous treats and demonstrates why having truly clean options matters - especially for those managing conditions like diabetes or epilepsy through diet. Whether you're following a ketogenic lifestyle or simply want to understand what's really in your food, this eye-opening discussion will transform how you read ingredient labels forever.BIG IDEA"I don't want a product that's going to spike your blood sugar - I want a product that's going to help somebody in their health journey, and I know what constant elevated insulin is going to do to a human body."Siouxie Bishoff - Contact InfoWebsite: https://scrummysweets.com/Facebook: https://facebook.com/scrummysweetscoInstagram: https://instagram.com/scrummysweetscoSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

Dr. Scott Vrzal shares groundbreaking insights on how headaches serve as crucial warning signals from your body, revealing deeper health issues you might not know about. After suffering from debilitating headaches himself, Dr. Vrzal's journey led him to discover that most headaches aren't actually problems with your head at all – they're referred pain from other organs and systems in your body.In this compelling conversation with Dr. Philip Ovadia, Dr. Vrzal explains how the location of your headache can pinpoint specific organ dysfunctions: right-sided headaches often indicate gallbladder issues, left-sided headaches suggest stomach problems, and tension headaches frequently point to thyroid dysfunction. This knowledge isn't just theoretical – Dr. Vrzal has used these connections to help patients who haven't found relief through conventional approaches.Beyond headaches, Dr. Vrzal discusses how muscle testing, nutrition, and addressing emotional components play critical roles in achieving lasting wellness. His approach challenges conventional thinking by focusing on root causes rather than symptom management, offering viewers practical tools to interpret their own body's signals before they become serious health concerns.Learn why Dr. Vrzal calls this "The Headache Advantage" and how understanding these connections could transform your approach to health, prevent unwanted symptoms, and possibly keep you off the operating table.BIG IDEAMost headaches are not problems with your head at all but are referred pain from other organs and systems in your body, serving as critical warning signals that something needs attention.Dr. Scott Vrzal Contact Info:Website: https://www.drvrzal.com/Book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCNYNHKZFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Dr.Scott.j.Vrzal/Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

Dr. Thomas Weims, Professor at UC Santa Barbara, shares his revolutionary findings on treating polycystic kidney disease through ketogenic interventions. After 25 years of research, his lab accidentally discovered that ketosis dramatically halts and even reverses PKD progression—something previously thought impossible. The medical establishment had long maintained that PKD, a genetic disease affecting 600,000 Americans, was untreatable through dietary means. Yet Weims' research demonstrates that beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), the primary ketone produced during ketosis, shows more potent effects than any pharmacological intervention his team tested. In a groundbreaking clinical trial, patients on a ketogenic diet experienced improved kidney function and reduced kidney volume in just three months—the first time such reversal has ever been documented in PKD. Weims explains the science behind this therapeutic approach, how it challenges entrenched medical dogma, and why this metabolic therapy may benefit all forms of chronic kidney disease. This conversation exposes how decades of medical education about diet and kidney health have been based on hypothetical papers rather than clinical evidence, offering hope to millions suffering from progressive kidney conditions.BIG IDEA"What we found more recently is that the progression of polycystic kidney disease is not really driven by gene mutations as previously thought—a patient inherits a bad gene, but that doesn't necessarily mean they will have rapidly progressing PKD."Gary Taubes Contact InfoWebsite: https://uncertaintyprinciples.substack.com/Website: https://garytaubes.com/Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.
