Listen Later

In this episode of The Common Sense MD, Dr. Tom Rogers sits down with Dr. Ben Edwards, a fellow family doctor turned expert in integrative medicine, to discuss the recent measles outbreak in Texas. The conversation kicks off with Dr. Edwards sharing his inspiring journey from a traditional medical background rooted in Central Texas to embracing holistic and functional approaches in Lubbock, Texas.

Listeners will be intrigued by Dr. Edwards' transformative story, which began with his skepticism of alternative medicine and ultimately led to embracing it after witnessing the healing journey of his nurse practitioner with celiac disease. Together, Dr. Rogers and Dr. Edwards explore the limitations and constraints of conventional medicine, emphasizing the importance of getting to the root causes of health issues and moving away from a purely medication-focused approach.

The episode goes deep into the ongoing measles situation, as Dr. Edwards recounts his hands-on experience in treating affected families within the Mennonite community. He shares insights on the effectiveness of using simple, yet powerful, remedies like cod liver oil and Budesonide, as well as how his unwavering faith and commitment to providing care have guided his journey.

Throughout the episode, the conversation touches on the broader challenges in the medical system, the influence of big pharma, and the essential role of faith and prayer in practice. It's an enlightening discussion that calls for introspection in the medical community and promotes seeking the truth, informed decision making, and a compassionate, patient-centered approach to healthcare.

Join Dr. Tom Rogers and Dr. Ben Edwards for an episode that promises insight, hope, and a call to action for a more integrative and truthful practice of medicine.
