Dr. Shawn Baker Podcast

Elie is a Hospitalist at a leading hospital in Houston's Texas Medical Center and is a board-certified physician in internal medicine and nephrology. His practice focuses on caring for acutely ill patients admitted for a myriad of medical conditions. Like most of us, Elie has wrestled with a host of health issues including back pain, high blood pressure, insulin resistance and full on Dad Bod. After being frustrated with conventional approaches, Elie took a radical departure from mainstream medicine and used lifestyle to completely alter his health. This first-hand experience shifted his professional interests to include nutrition as his primary tool to combat chronic metabolic and autoimmune diseases. While he'd already been using his personal time to help patients harness the power of food to reverse their chronic conditions for years, treating more than 100 COVID patients over the last 6 months was a game changer. Almost without fail, the main predictor of poor outcomes for the patients was Metabolic syndrome! As a result, Elie's focus, passion, and commitment is to improving patient health today, as well as avoiding issues down the road with Lifestyle Medicine. When not at the hospital, Elie likes to unwind outdoors by hiking, skiing, and studying Stoic philosophy.

Brad Marshall is the author of the Blog Fire In A Bottle and the creator of The Croissant Diet. Mildly obsessed with food and its history, his work focuses on trying to place current ideas about diet, including keto and carnivore diets into the framework of traditional Dietary patterns. For instance, the French diet before 1970 combined flour, sugar, butter and wine and the population was lean. Brad wrote The ROS Theory of Obesity which posits that ROS generation in the mitochondria of fat cells could provide the mechanism that explains why a traditional Chinese peasant diet - low fat with 85% of calories from starch; a French diet combining butter, wine and flour and a modern keto diet could all be expected to produce leanness but combining flour with polyunsaturated fats is a recipe for obesity. The core idea comes from the Protons thread of Peter Dobromylskyj's blog Hyperlipid. Brad tested this hypothesis with his dietary experiment The Croissant Diet. Brad is also the founder of Firebrand Meats, which is dedicated to producing pork and poultry products that are low in Linoleic acid, the n6 polyunsaturated fat (PUFA) whose intake has seen a dramatic worldwide increase in the last century. Animals cannot make PUFA and so we can create pork and chicken that is nearly free of them. You are what your animals eat. Brad has a genetics degree from Cornell, a certificate from The French Culinary Institute, has studied cancer at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer center and worked as a programmer for the Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project. He spent the last 15 years raising rotationally grazed pastured pork on his farm in upstate New York while running a butcher shop, local food restaurant and USDA inspected meat processing facility.
