As always, in this series too, co-hosts Ashok and Meera Vasudevan pull up two chairs for a fireside chat — evidence-based, a little cheeky, and firmly in the kitchen, never the clinic. This is Episode 1 of their four-part series adapted from Ashok's widely-shared essay “Pharma, Food, and the Fluent Consumer.”
In this episode
• How the 2017 blood-pressure rule made ~31 million Americans “sick” overnight — with no change to their bodies
• The triangle that powers the treadmill: shifting medical goalposts, flip-flopping food verdicts, and our own fluency
• Information vs. awareness — why being well-informed is not the same as being well.
• A fair word for doctors: lifestyle first, drugs for the genuinely high-risk; the criticism belongs upstream
• The refreshingly old-fashioned way to step off the treadmill
Thanks for tuning in to "Pay the Farmer, Not the Pharmacy"!
