Stay Off My Operating Table

Roxana Soetebeer, once considered a "hopeless" type 2 diabetic on 50 units of insulin, completely reversed her condition through a ketogenic diet, demonstrating that type 2 diabetes is not the "chronic progressive disease" her doctors claimed it to be.KISMETWhen Roxana's blood sugar levels dangerously spiked to the 400s, her desperate late-night call to a friend led to a life-changing recommendation to watch Dr. Stephen Phinney's lecture on the ketogenic diet – a coincidence that completely transformed her health trajectory and sparked her mission to help others.EPISODE SUMMARYRoxana Soetebeer shares her remarkable journey from severe type 2 diabetes to complete remission. After being told her condition was "chronic and progressive," Roxana found herself with dangerously high blood sugar levels around 400. In a desperate moment, a friend recommended she watch Dr. Stephen Phinney's lecture on the ketogenic diet. Within days of starting keto, Roxana saw dramatic improvements. She cut her insulin dose in half immediately and eventually eliminated it completely. Beyond diabetes reversal, her kidney disease, fatty liver disease (NASH), and acid reflux resolved as well. Roxana discusses her struggle with sugar addiction, comparing it to other substance addictions and explaining why "moderation" fails for true addicts. Now a certified Metabolic Health Practitioner, she runs a Facebook group with over 20,000 members and advocates for others. Her story challenges the conventional medical approach that treats metabolic conditions as inevitable, progressive diseases requiring lifelong medication.NOTABLE QUOTE"If you had asked me six years ago if I would be getting better or healthier or would get off insulin, I would have said no way, I tried everything...

Environmental toxins cause epigenetic changes that make fat cells malfunction, leading to obesity that is difficult to reverse through diet alone.KISMETThe average newborn baby has over 200 toxic chemicals in their placental blood before they take their first breath, and laboratory animals on strictly controlled diets are getting fatter despite no changes to their food intake.EPISODE SUMMARYIn this compelling episode, pulmonologist Dr. Stewart Lonky shares groundbreaking insights about why traditional approaches to weight loss often fail. Drawing from his book "Outsmarting Obesity," he explains how environmental toxins cause fat cells to malfunction, making weight management increasingly difficult. Dr. Lonky reveals that fat cells are actually endocrine organs that become dysfunctional when they grow too large, leading to reduced oxygen absorption and improper hormone signaling. The conversation takes an unexpected turn when he discusses how common household items like non-stick cookware, air fresheners, and even stain-resistant fabrics contribute to obesity through chemicals called obesogens. These substances trigger epigenetic changes that can affect weight regulation for multiple generations. Dr. Lonky offers practical solutions through his AIPE protocol (Accept, Identify, Prevent, Eliminate) and explains how specific compounds like zeolites can help remove toxic substances from the body.NOTABLE QUOTE"We have 85,000 chemicals that are commercially available in the United States... Our conveniences are 85,000 chemicals deep. And we're not going to give up those conveniences...

CrowdHealth is revolutionizing healthcare by creating a community-funded alternative to traditional insurance, where members pay cash for medical services at significantly lower rates while maintaining high-quality care.KISMETWhile most would assume large insurance companies like UnitedHealthcare (the 7th largest company by revenue globally) would negotiate the best rates, CrowdHealth members are actually securing medical procedures at about 50% of what insurance companies pay - typically around 130-140% of Medicare rates compared to insurance companies' 250-300%.EPISODE SUMMARYIn this compelling interview, Andy Schoonover, founder of CrowdHealth, explains how his company is disrupting traditional healthcare financing. After a personal experience with insurance denying coverage for his daughter's medical procedure, Schoonover discovered that paying cash for healthcare services often costs significantly less than using insurance. CrowdHealth now serves 10,000 members who fund each other's healthcare needs, having processed 20,000 bills over three years. Members typically pay half what traditional insurance costs, without networks or complex paperwork. The company has successfully handled major medical events, including a $1 million emergency that was negotiated down to $200,000. CrowdHealth is also pioneering a new approach to wellness by offering discounts to metabolically healthy members, creating financial incentives for maintaining good health. The community aspect encourages members to make cost-conscious healthcare decisions, as they're helping fellow members rather than faceless insurance companies.Contact info for Andy SchoonoverInvitee Email: andy@joincrowdhealth.comTwitter: https://x.com/JoinCrowdHealthInstagram: @joincrowdhealthWebsite: www.joincrowdhealth.comLinkedIn: CrowdHealthSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

In this discussion, Dr. Chris Knobbe, an ophthalmologist turned nutrition researcher, highlights the shocking link between processed vegetable oils and chronic diseases, particularly age-related macular degeneration (AMD). He shares his discovery that cases of AMD were rare before the 1930s, paralleling the rise of vegetable oil consumption. Dr. Knobbe critiques current dietary guidelines, emphasizing the importance of an ancestral diet and offering insights into the hidden dangers of omega-6 fatty acids.

Living in a constant state of stress and unworthiness triggered genetic changes that led to disease, while conscious lifestyle choices and emotional healing reversed those conditions.KISMETResearch shows that emotional trauma can be passed down through generations via genetic markers, but positive lifestyle changes can create new neural pathways that override these inherited patterns - as demonstrated in mice studies where fear responses were inherited but could be rewired.EPISODE SUMMARYDr. Kien Vuu, an interventional radiologist, shares his transformation from being overweight, diabetic, and on multiple medications to achieving optimal health through lifestyle changes. Despite his medical expertise, Dr. Vuu found himself trapped in a cycle of stress-driven behaviors that stemmed from childhood experiences as a Vietnamese refugee. He explains how our cells constantly respond to our environment, thoughts, and emotions, affecting how our genes express themselves. This process, known as epigenetics, means that while we inherit certain genetic tendencies, we can influence their expression through five key areas: physical health (sleep, nutrition, movement), mental state, emotional well-being, social connections, and sense of purpose. Dr. Vuu describes how addressing underlying emotional patterns and trauma can make healthy choices easier to maintain. The episode explores the fascinating connection between psychological well-being and cellular health, offering hope that conscious lifestyle changes can reverse chronic health conditions.NOTABLE QUOTE"You are your best medicine because how you live your life, how you see life, how you participate in life is one of the most beautiful, most empowering things that we can do."More info:Dr. Kien Vuu contact infowebsite: kienvuumd.com@DoctorVMD on social mediaSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.
