What matters more—preventing disease or treating it? In this conversation, two doctors and a chef explore why the answer isn't as simple as choosing one over the other.

We discuss the growing role of lifestyle medicine, the importance of prevention, the realities of modern healthcare, and why nutrition, movement, mental wellbeing, and medical treatment all work together to improve long-term health.

This discussion also examines:

• Prevention vs treatment – are we asking the wrong question?

• Why lifestyle medicine is gaining momentum

• Food as medicine – where does nutrition fit into healthcare?

• The impact of social media on public trust in doctors

• Why holistic health means more than just diet or exercise

• How genetics, environment, culture, and mental wellbeing all influence health

Rather than presenting health as a choice between conventional medicine and lifestyle changes, this conversation explores how both approaches can complement each other to help people live healthier lives.

Between Bites — where the best conversations happen over a shared meal.

This time, we gather around a Persian table — sour cherry rice, smoked aubergine, purple carrot cake — and let the conversation run as freely as the food. A lifestyle doctor, a chef, a nutritionist and an integrative-medicine practitioner sit down to trade honest, sometimes uncomfortable views on how we actually get well.

Between bites, we get into:

• ​ 🍽️ Prevention vs treatment — why the "either/or" framing misses the point
• ​ 🧠 Stress — friend or enemy? Why recovery matters as much as the pressure
• ​ 🥘 Food as medicine — convenience, cost, and why "expensive" doesn't mean "healthy"
• ​ 🔁 Habits that stick — the identity shift behind "I'm someone who…"
• ​ 📱 Wellness noise — protein-maxing, looks-maxing, and following the evidence
• ​ 🌍 Culture & connection — how the shared table shapes the way we eat and heal

A warm, candid and occasionally funny conversation about meeting people where they are — because knowing what's good for us and doing it are two very different things.

Pull up a chair. Dinner's ready.

Some of my best memories and deepest learnings have happened around meals — from childhood conversations at my family table to honest, curious discussions during medical school and beyond. I created "Between Bites with Dr Hosnieh Fathi" because I believe people open up differently when they eat together: they become calmer, more generous, more willing to question, disagree, laugh, listen, and learn. In a world full of health noise, supplements, longevity promises, and quick fixes, this is a space for thoughtful, unfiltered conversations about what matters most: our health. Around each table, I sit with friends, colleagues, and experts to explore lifestyle medicine, wellbeing, culture, tradition, and food, each episode inspired by a different cuisine and the stories it carries.
