What your doctor prescribes for you.” ~Dr Aseem Malhotra➡︎ By 2030, 23.6 million people will die EVERY YEAR from heart disease. The food we’re eating is making us sick and the “cure” big pharma is selling is making us sicker. And worst of all - your doctors aren’t even trained to know what’s best for you.➡︎ Dr Aseem Malhotra is one of the UK’s leading heart doctors and has made it his mission to reveal the dark secrets of nutrition policy, exercise and the healthcare system. He’s the author of three books including ‘A Statin-Free Life’, and is the man behind the campaign that saw Jamie Oliver and football icon Steven Gerrard fight to have better school meals offered across the UK.➡︎ In his new documentary “First Do No Pharm”, Dr Malhotra exposes the biggest cover ups in modern medicine and says big pharma has “abandoned its moral compass in pursuit of profit”. He argues we live in a world of “too much medicine” and says drugs like statins are doing nothing to help curb rising rates of heart disease - and may be causing more harm than good.➡︎ In this episode, Tim and Aseem reveal the damaging consequences of big pharma’s influence on healthcare, and how it funds 50% of medical education in the US.

⚡️Functional medicine will transform your health - how to change your gene expression & protect your immune system!💬 “Our immune system is unbelievably intelligent and it has a mastery that we still are only starting to fully understand” ~Dr Jeffrey Bland➡︎ Functional medicine started in the 1990s thanks to the incredible Dr Jeffrey Bland. Where modern medicine diagnoses problems and treats disease, functional medicine takes a proactive approach, focusing on the uniqueness of each individual to create tailor-made solutions for lasting health.➡︎ Dr Jeffrey Bland is known as the “Father of Functional Medicine” and founded The Institute for Functional Medicine with his wife in 1991. His work is championed by the likes of Mark Hyman, Terry Wahls, Kara Fitzgerald and David Perlmutter.➡︎ Much of his work focuses on the immune system, which he believes is hugely misunderstood and plays a much bigger role in our overall health than we realise. And he says it doesn’t have to get worse as we age!➡︎ In this episode, Tim and Jeff explain how our whole body is connected and why modern medicine’s focus on individual symptoms is failing our health. How we CAN control our health despite our genes, by changing the way they express themselves. Why immune “boosting” doesn’t work and why we should be looking instead at “immuno-rejuvination”.

Breast implant illness is a real and potentially debilitating health issue - so what’s going on?➡︎ As one of the most common cosmetic surgeries in the US, it’s important for women (and the men who love them) to know the facts about breast implants - and to understand how to recover and detoxify.➡︎ Luckily, Dr Rob Whitfield is a world-renowned plastic surgeon who’s removed more than 3000 breast implants, helping his patients to come back from breast implant illness.➡︎ In this episode, Tim and Rob discuss the link between implants and inflammation, and why they can lead to such a cascade of negative health impacts.
