Welcome to Protecting Your Nest with Dr. Tony Hampton. Dr. Philip Ovadia is a board-certified Cardiac Surgeon and founder of Ovadia Heart Health. His mission statement is “to optimize the public’s metabolic health and help people like you stay off [his] operating table.” He has a deep and personal understanding of how powerful diet and lifestyle are for total health. Having discovered the secret to his own success in the low-carb/keto/carnivore diets, he had his eyes opened to the importance of metabolic health as preventative measures against almost all chronic disease. He is the author of Stay off My Operating Table: A Heart Surgeon’s Metabolic Health Guide to Lose Weight, Prevent Disease, and Feel Your Best Every Day.

In this discussion, Drs. Tony and Philip talk about the meaning of the term “metabolic health,” the basic measurements of metabolic health, the relative metabolic healthiness of various dietary approaches, why getting enough quality sleep is so important as an aspect of metabolic health, how diet can contribute to reduction of stress and anxiety, predictive measures of diabetes, and the content/purpose of Dr. Ovadia’s book (link below).
