Anderson Cooper & Sanjay Gupta Are Lying
Evolution of Medicine Podcast
This week on the Evolution of Medicine podcast, we dive into a topic that weaves together many of the threads we’ve been exploring over the last few weeks. We’ve talked about AI and its rapid rise. We’ve talked about cognitive decline and the extraordinary possibility of reversing it. And we’ve talked about what it will take to get there on an individual practice level. But this week’s episode brings those themes together in a way I didn’t expect.

The Primary Care Renaissance

Grokipedia Deep Dive and More!
Evolution of Medicine Podcast
Last week, I shared the differences in entries between Wikipedia and Grokipedia and why that shift represents a turning point for functional medicine.

And in the Clinical Corner, we explore a fascinating new tool I found...

Everyone's Brain Needs Primary Prevention
Evolution of Medicine Podcast
This week on the Evolution of Medicine Podcast, we dive into primary prevention – and why it’s the future of health. Dr. Eric Topol recently published an article lamenting medicine’s lack of progress in the big three killers: cardiovascular disease, cancer, and neurodegeneration. He’s right about the problem, but I’d argue he’s been going to the wrong conferences. If he had joined us at the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute (PLMI) conference, he would have seen what real prevention looks like: clinicians reversing chronic disease through root-cause, systems-based care. And...
