Are you practicing medicine based on outdated teachings? Welcome to an episode that boldly challenges entrenched beliefs in the medical field and brings to light the dynamic nature of medical research. 

We'll take a deep dive into Alzheimer's disease, and its intriguing links to metabolic abnormalities. Shifting our focus from the traditional amyloid and plaque model, we'll explore the theory of Alzheimer's as a form of diabetes - termed as type 3 diabetes. Join us as we explore the potential benefits of ketogenic diets and exogenous ketones in managing Alzheimer's, and ponder on the ongoing debate around sugar and refined carbohydrates. We'll also uncover the concept of insulin resistance and its relation to type 2 diabetes, while debunking the misconception that all calories are equal. 

We're delighted to have Chris Palmer, an esteemed psychiatrist from Harvard Medical School, who shares his success in using a ketogenic diet to treat patients with psychiatric conditions. He provides valuable insights into the controversial carnivore diet and the importance of avoiding harmful food components. We wrap up by addressing challenges faced by doctors for speaking out against the establishment, and highlight the significant role health coaches play in implementing lifestyle changes. Whether you're a medical student, a healthcare professional, or a health-conscious individual, this episode is bound to provide thought-provoking insights. Tune in to unlearn the lies, and relearn the truth about health and wellness.
