DR. PHILIP OVADIA

• Philip is based out of Florida, but also travels to Memphis often for work.
• He is a cardiothoracic surgeon.
• The two most common surgeries he performs are bypass surgeries and surgeries dealing with lung cancer.
  • When it comes to the heart, he’s a plumber.
• As a heart surgeon, he tries to help his patients understand cholesterol.
  • Just because cholesterol is there when there’s a heart problem, doesn’t mean *it* is causing the problem.

FINDING ACCURATE INFORMATION

• To some extent, the information you receive is being controlled.
• With health, the proprietors of the food control the flow of information.
• Grain companies fund studies, others would have to admit being wrong, and more.
• Think of all the lies we hear about health every day!
• And, think of the environmentalists view of meat and how simply wrong that is.
• Vinnie’s doc will try to tackle some of this misinformation-spreading and gatekeeping.
• “Experts” are pushing us away from the most important thing in our history with respect to our advancement: meat.
• Dr. Ovadia tries to get and teach people how to keep themselves healthy.
  • There has never been evidence that processed foods are good for you, but all of these meat substitutes are just that.
• There’s a way to be a healthy vegan. But you have to be intentional.

IMPROVING METABOLIC HEALTH

• Dr. Ovadia focuses on the metabolic health of his patients.
• We can learn so much from this.
• Over 80% of adults could not meet in-range levels of some measures of this health.
• There are several good measures of our metabolic health:
  • Blood pressure.
    • If you’re on medication, you’ve already failed.
  • Blood glucose.
  • Cholesterol LDL levels.
  • Waist circumference.
  • Triglycerides.
  • He talks through these markers.
• Consider asking your doctor about how you match up here, or check out the ranges online.
• We can improve our metabolic health through our nutrition.
