Ever heard of a business owner providing valuable insight about the importance of health?

Jeffrey Feldberg, the founder of Deep Wealth, started his business in his parents’ attic. He ultimately sold it for nine figures.  But that's not why he's here.

He learned to reverse engineer his failures to make better business decisions. When he experienced the death of his father, it left him devastated. He realized that if he didn’t take care of his own health, he wouldn’t be able to achieve the success he wanted in business. For him, the same way owners target KPIs or key performance indicators for their business, they should similarly develop specific KPIs for their health.

Unfortunately, many business owners don’t pay enough attention to their health and that’s how Jeffrey wants to help his fellow entrepreneurs. In this episode, Jeffrey Fedlberg discusses the concept of reverse engineering failures, the importance of sleep and mindset, and how physical health is intertwined with the health of your business. Remember, just like business, health is not something that just happens; it requires intention and effort to achieve.

Jeffrey Feldberg is the founder of Deep Wealth, an educational platform for business owners. He advocates giving importance to one's personal health to help achieve business success.

“But if we follow the standard guidelines, at least from my journey to follow the standard American diet side, how ironic, we get a sad outcome from that. If we follow traditional medical advice, we're going to end up on Dr. Ovadia’s operating table, which is what we don't want.” - Jeffrey Feldberg

Reading the science changed Nina Teicholz’s perspective on nutrition. She’s a journalist and author who is known for her work on nutrition and health. As a vegetarian with a food review column, she had to eat red meat—exactly the dishes she stayed away from. However, upon checking with her doctor, she was surprised to find that her cholesterol actually improved.

This experience led Nina to read the science behind nutrition.  In this conversation, she tells us why saturated fats are not the villain, how easy it is to fall into the trap of believing popular narratives, and through her writing and advocacy, inspires us to question what we know and seek the truth. Nina understands the cost of speaking up against the nutrition industry and she remains committed to sharing the truth. She’s not giving up on that.

Nina Teicholz, the journalist who wrote The Big Fat Suprise, is the founder of Nutrition Coalition. She believes that there should be a unified movement to educate people and to provide organized advocacy efforts for more people to hear the message.

"Low carb comes out better on almost all metrics in terms of fighting heart disease, weight loss, metabolic glycemic control of your blood sugars, I mean, low-carb almost always looks better in those review papers. So, it's just really mystifying and hard to understand how the science is, I mean, I think it's hard to use a word other than suppress. At this point, it's literally being suppressed and ignored. And that's very disturbing state of affairs." - Nina Teicholz

At 16, she was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and was told she would never be able to have children. To manage her symptoms, the doctors prescribed a bunch of drugs, but offered her no hope of ever reversing her disease.
In the ensuing years, she also developed IBS and put on more and more weight.

Maria Emmerich was on a slow train to oblivion and a miserable end.

Then... she turned it all around.

She lost 80 pounds of fat. She reversed her PCOS, reversed her IBS and regained the health lost to disease and iatrogenesis.

Orthopedic surgeon Carlos Moreyra had to do his own research to learn that  diet plays a crucial role in maintaining orthopedic health.

A variety of factors can affect bone strength and density. Your choice of food can either help prevent orthopedic disease or increase the likelihood of orthopedic diseases including osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and even fractures.

In this episode, Dr. Moreyra discussed how advanced glycation end products affect bone health in several ways. He notes that chronic medication can affect bone health and highlights the necessity to cut back on carbohydrates, processed foods, and sugars to maintain strong bones.

He advocates dietary and lifestyle changes to prevent orthopedic conditions and make you stay off his operating table.

Dr. Tony Hampton believes that the key to healing lies in addressing the root causes of illness rather than just treating symptoms. This involves knowing the true state of his patients - physically, emotionally, and even mentally. With his NEST and ROPE approach, Dr. Hampton can identify the root cause of his patient's health issues and create a plan that works for them.

In this episode, Dr. Hampton emphasizes the importance of eating healthy proteins and fats, why medication should only be a temporary fix while patients work on making lifestyle changes, and the future of medicine through better education. As a big believer in lifestyle medicine and integrative approaches, he wants to see more clinicians educated on how to improve patient outcomes. With his holistic approach to healthcare, he truly is on his way to changing the medical landscape to benefit patients.

To learn more about him, watch this episode of Dr. Hampton's podcast, inspired by Dr. Westman's Doctors Listen Up video.

Dave Feldman was an engineer on the verge of developing diabetes. In an effort to better his health, he made the decision to try a low-carb, high-fat diet. His sister and father followed suit. Dave's LDL cholesterol levels increased, but his family's did not.

The different results fueled his curiosity to explore the reasons behind this inconsistency.

Many people believe that genetics determines how the body processes a high-fat diet, but Daves findings challenged this notion.

In this episode, Dave Feldman presents the Lipid Energy Model, how high levels of LDL cholesterol may not always equal increased risk of heart disease.

David Feldman is an engineer who initiated the Citizen Science Foundation dedicated to advancing citizen science in the field of cholesterol and lipid research.

“Metabolism is this counterbalance between anabolism, which is the building up of stuff, and catabolism, which is the breaking down of stuff. And metabolism is how good you are at building up and breaking down stuff in a good balance. That's really what metabolism is. And nowhere is that more important than fuel."

Why are pregnant women advised to avoid eating fat when fat is one of the building blocks of the human body?

Dr. Robert Kiltz provides clear answers and dispels many of the misconceptions that have plagued us for far too long. As a fertility expert who focuses on metabolic health and incorporates nutrition in his practice, he challenges the generally accepted idea of a healthy diet and how it relates to fertility. Couples come to him when they struggle to conceive. And the primary reason, like every other disease, is inflammation. Plant-based diets and our avoidance of fat causes inflammation.

In this episode, Dr. Kiltz blows the lid off the myth that plant-based diets are always healthy. He explains how plant sugars can damage human reproductive organs. He also delves into the crucial role that fats play in pregnancy and how they can help ensure a healthy baby. It's about time to rethink what we eat, its impact on our health, and how this affects starting a family.

If the ketogenic diet can help people who struggled with metabolic and mental illnesses, how come it was never taught in medical school? 

Dr. Bret Scher, a trained cardiologist, completed a combined preventive and general cardiology fellowship. As a certified cardiologist, he was hesitant when a health coach advised they try keto diets with their patients. Fat is bad. But after conducting extensive research on ketosis, he became an advocate for nutritional ketosis. Despite the evidence contradicting commonly held beliefs regarding saturated fat, cholesterol, and carbohydrates, there are still those who remain resistant to the idea. 

In this episode, Dr. Scher explains how doctors' attitudes have changed towards therapeutic nutritional ketosis, its association with mental health, and why he emphasizes the need for the supervision of a trained clinician if one uses ketogenic diet as a health intervention.

Dr. Bret Scher is a board-certified cardiologist who specializes in preventative and integrative cardiology. At present, he is the director of Metabolic Minds.

“But that is a completely different story than if we're talking about eating a diet that is low-carb, and the fat is coming from natural animal sources, not ultra-processed, it's not hypercaloric, it’s within a setting that's improving your metabolic health, that is a completely different scenario. But that takes longer to say, that takes longer to think about, that's a nuance that is not easy to understand when you haven't seen it, you haven't considered it. But I think that’s the first step, is to say, look, what are the studies that we're basing our recommendations on? How strong is the evidence?” - Dr. Bret Scher

Andy Schoonover was frustrated that, despite paying $1,200 a month for coverage, his insurance refused to pay for his daughter's $8,000 ear infection procedure. Foregoing his insurance led him to develop a solution that could help those who are uninsured. He founded CrowdHealth.

He shares that the idea behind CrowdHealth is medical health crowdfunding, which is a return to the notion of neighbors helping each other when someone is ill. Their goal is to build an alternative to the current healthcare system.  The community has the freedom to choose their healthcare providers without worrying about how much their medical procedures would cost. Members who dealt with similar circumstances even choose to contribute more. This makes Andy very optimistic that their service gives more hope for everybody to finally receive the real care that they deserve.

Andy Schoonover saw the benefits of being uninsured and he developed CrowdHealth, a solution that can help uninsured individuals receive affordable healthcare.

“So, you have the buyers of healthcare, which are health insurance plans, who want the price to go up. You have the sellers of healthcare, who are the big hospital systems, and it's more and more so. They both want the price to go up. So, this doesn't take a Ph.D. in economics, if the buyer and the seller want the price to go up, guess what the price is going up, right? Hospitals want the price to go up. Insurance Plans want the price to go up, the price is going up. And that's just how our system works. Unfortunately.” - Andy Schoonover
