"bills are negotiable, a lot of people don't know that." Ok, I can know that, but that doesn't translate into Knowing what the average price Should be, what I can negotiate to, or having the time off work to go commit myself to more labor to argue with people. I don't have the knowledge or the time and energy. I don't feel like the consumer should be responsible for self advocating against the industry, and especially not if they've been through a health issue major enough to require a hospital's intervention.

After you get in a car accident on a road trip with a brain injury, you are expected to make sure the anesthesiologist is in your network before they give you drugs when you're in a coma. After they're done with the emergency operation, you can negotiate how much an IV, brain surgery and physical therapy is. That is, assuming you can keep your job and health insurance.

My mom got very ill, was in the hospital for a couple of weeks. Unfortunately, she died in hospice care after a couple months. A month after that, the hospital just casually dropped a $3000 bill on me for the surgery she'd had that ultimately didn't help (because her insurance died when she did and they refused to pay the hospital). I contested it and the hospital ultimately dropped the charge, but that was a hell of a thing to have to deal with on top of the death of a parent.

After years of searching for a diagnosis on some of my own issues. I ended up in a "teaching hospital" where I believe Drs just behave differently. I was given all the tests I've had before and then sat down for 1.5hrs with my (new) PCP and she said "Alright, we don't have any solid evidence of what is going on - but if your willing to work with me I'm willing to learn with you to help". After 9yrs in the system I just literally broke down. 3yrs later and we have made significant progress. I essentially have Post Viral Onset Autoimmune Disease and I got this long before it was being researched deeply because of C19. Anyway, Drs need to remain teachable and humble at all times - it should be the literal first words of the Hippocratic Oath.

Our insurance changed because of work, and we had to switch doctors, so I went to my new doctor for a general check up and establish myself as a patient. Got a bill for $300 for that. I tried to fight it, because a general check up was included in our insurance, but it was considered a "new patient" exam which was not covered. In the end they would not budge on what was covered and we had to pay another $300 when my husband went in for his first check up! It was so disheartening and felt like such a scam, especially when our insurance changed back to the old one a year later. Things like this is why I hardly ever go to the doctor unless I am actually hurt or sick enough to warrant it, since I never know how much money I'm going to get screwed out of!

Also, the absolute GALL to say "I cover it in my book" when Dr.Mike points out that he neglected to address the serious health consequences and contraindications for hormone replacement therapy is mind blowing.

Something else I found out that you don’t need three meals a day. Doctors kept telling me if any of the day eat three meals a day eat three meals a day eat three meals a day. Three meals a day is too much food for me. I’m happy with two sometimes one meal a day. I only eat when my body tells me you’re hungry. Other than that, I don’t eat if that means I only eat one meal a day or nothing then I don’t find out that’s better and it makes me happier. Trying to follow doctors advice make me unhappy.

And this is precisely why people tend to just ignore nutrition and healthcare advice. There's too much inconsistency. Someone like me with a chronic health issue that causes all the symptoms of a heart attack, I'm told by every doctor to call the hospital and when I get there, I'm asked why I came to the hospital again. Obviously I eventually figured out how to manage the conflicting advice, but that's just one example. We're told to limit our fat intake but we're also told that not having enough fat on our bodies is unhealthy. It's a balancing act and I think sometimes people decide to just shut down instead.

The one rule in nutrition that isn't going to ever change is 'all things in moderation'. Thirty years ago, cholesterol was demonized. Then it was fat. Then carbs and sugar. None of these things are going to kill you, it's the overconsumption that's bad (plus modern man's tendency to lack 'organic' exercise... that is, getting out in the environment and being active, rather than the unnatural repetition of gym exercise). All you have to do is follow the money; the artificial sweetener and organic produce markets are multi BILLION dollar industries... the more money they make, the less you can trust what they tell you.

And if his collegues do the same, they are also exceptional. My doctor prescribed penycilin for an infection, even tho I am allergic to it. A few years ago, before Ozympic was a thing, he just alluled to me taking a shot to lose weight. Since then, the only thing he's done is refer me to a nutritionist, which admitedly is a good thing.

THIS. Dr. Mike is great, but either biased or misinformed as to how most doctors operate. I've had dozens of doctors in my lifetime, most associated with top hospitals or ivy league educated, and not ONE has ever advised me on diet or sleep or anything else lifestyle related. In fact, the one time I went to a doctor for sleep issues specifically (I suddenly developed horrible insomnia), he told me I was probably just depressed and prescribed me an SSRI. No questions asked.

Until people see that health care is incompatible with a for-profit system, it will never change and the only loser is the customer.

If you think about it, or course a functional medicine practitioner is spending a lot of time with their patients because they pay a lot of money out of pocket and owning their own practice vs more solid evidence based medicine practices that have to work with insurances and larger entities. If we could have more primary care providers practicing we would have less overload per pcp which would help some of that. It's such a hard thing to tackle, and many providers are educated but because they have such a short window of time and overload, some of it doesn't get addressed.

I agree, that even if it's in a book, how many people hearing that are actually going to buy the book and also read up on the consequences of that therapy? Not very many, and Dr Mike has spot on and saying that the vast majority of people are definitely going to just go to a clinic and get this prescribed to them.

I think the problem with "calories in, calories out" is that we don't have much control over how many calories our body burns. We only control how many calories we consume. When we eat calories that come from sugar, our insulin spikes, telling our body to store those calories as fat. That does not happen to the same degree when we eat calories from protein and fat. And so, 100 calories of rice is going to slow down the metabolism more than 100 calories of chicken will.

When talking about food supply, we should really be listening to farmers and food animal veterinarians. A lot of people (including doctors) don't understand how much regulation surrounds the agriculture industry and often demonized what they don't know. Organic isn't healthier There's no regulatory definition for "natural" There was NEVER antibiotics in meat or dairy products. There are strict rules vets abide by when they have to use antibiotics. FARAD sets withdrawal times. GMOs are not bad. They allow us to feed the growing population and combat issues with farming changes due to climate change. The amount of misinformation surrounding food is troubling, and unfortunately doctors (who have never set foot on a farm or even met a farmer) are some of the major influences pushing it.

As someone who has horrible horrible chronic illness, I actually really appreciate this episode. I think insurance really limits a doctors ability to be able to think outside the box, and I can see why that’s a whole system failure instead of individual. I also appreciate the debate about the limitations of research.

I find Dr. Mike to represent the establishment and the official party lines of the APA and the ACFP. I relate more to Dr. Marty's perspective that medicine has gotten so many things wrong over the years and advice and treatments need to be constantly reevaluated.

After 40 yrs of Disability, COVID, autoimmune response, Lipidemia/Venous Disease, Spinal degeneration, my body started to have “Food intolerance issues”. I had to go on a strict low histamine meal plan alone. I couldn’t get a doctors appointment fast enough with the slow obstruction of managed primary care. I did all the research myself from KZbin Doctors and have been healing my own digestive gut. I have an gastroenterologist appointment in a few weeks. I would itch from head to toe after I ate anything. Now, I have a very strict, no junk, no sugar, no processed foods, no dairy, minimal grains, no fermented foods. I am losing weight fast and have no cravings. I can’t even tolerate the idea of eating junk or sugar. Once you clean your system, your brain and digestive system resets.

I love having a sweet treat sometimes after dinner and my friend told me to start eating dark chocolate instead of ice cream or milk chocolate etc and I found that dark chocolate is a lot more satisfying. When I did eat something higher in sugar I kept wanting more and it drove me nuts cuz I wasn't being satisfied like I was with the dark chocolate where I could eat 1 or 2 squares from one of those 60% coco baking bars and I didnt feel like going back for more.

Stating autism as a result of lower food quality isn't great. There are a lot of people who hadn't been diagnosed as a kid or those that never get diagnosed but are just quirky their whole life. As we learn more about it, and figure out more how it presents in girls/women, we are going to see an increase of diagnoses without an actual increase in autism rates.

It's just like how there's people who say Alzheimer's rates increased in the 70s due to Crisco and seed oils or some other thing they don't like, when in reality, research for Alzheimer's was finally expanded upon in the 70s and people were living longer in order to even get Alzheimer's. Correlation =/= causation, yet people will say anything to justify their stance.

​@@Hannahsunshine- the existence of a possibility is not enough to establish a relationship between the two. My point was that our data about autism diagnosis rates is highly flawed, so we would not be able to establish any relationships using it, with food quality or anything else. To answer your question directly, sure, but in the same way that it's possible someone bakes you cookies tomorrow - I/we don't have enough information. Maybe the data for developmentally challenged autists is decent (because they cannot mask) but the idea that all autism rate increases due to food quality is not a statement with good evidence to back it up. Dr. Makary clearly is a great resource for this video's main topic, but not for autism related things.

I don't usually comment on Doctor Mike's videos, but I came here to basically say the same thing. The reason more of us are being diagnosed is because we've been learning more about autism, especially with regard to how it presents differently in people who are AFAB, so diagnostic methods have been able to evolve to account for those different presentations. Also, some parents either don't want their kid to be formally diagnosed (like my parents with me) or can't afford to go through that process, so that also contributes to increases in diagnoses as adults. Plus, autism in women is commonly misdiagnosed as BPD, which further delays the autism diagnosis from being made. Also, we don't become autistic because of something we ate, we're born autistic, and most of the time there's a genetic component (there's research supporting the fact that 80% of known autism cases are genetic). Sorry for the long and ranty reply. As someone who is autistic, I strongly took issue with his comment.

“Organic” as a labeling scheme is pure marketing and has very little reliable relation to health. Eating fresh fruits and vegetables is great. Using them as flavors instead of loading up on fats and salt and sugar is great. Buying organic is, unless it’s a specific situation where you know the specific industry, probably a waste of money.

I agree with Dr. Makary - having transparency and talking about past mistakes creates trust. Saying “I don’t know” makes me trust a doctor much more than someone arrogant who insists they know everything. Also, knowing there are varying opinions makes me feel relief that if the current course isn’t working, maybe there are other options. I do trust most doctors, but especially the ones who are humble, admit they don’t know it all, and acknowledge the system is flawed.

"Why has the cost of Healthcare ballooned so much?" Because it's privatized. It's a business. And politicians have convinced voters that's a good thing, despite the US being the only 1st world country like this. The government should be able to negotiate price limits on medical care & medication on our behalf, but instead pharma & insurance companies lobby to keep congress in their back pocket. What's crazy is that despite all this, the US government spends more on healthcare than countries with actual universal healthcare for all!

Some people are just scared by communism to a concerning degree. No sane person wants privatized firefighters or police. That is the premise for many dystopian bestsellers. Privatisation only makes sense with a healthy market and not buying has to be an option too. Nobody can compare hospital surgery prices while lying unconscious in an ambulance. Severe pain and impending death are also both conditions which could void contracts in every other field. People would pay anything to survive and healthcare providers figured that out too.

Food scientist here 🙋🏼‍♀️ Can we please stop saying food scientists are designing foods to become addicting? I promise I’m not getting paid enough to do that, nor do I benefit at all from making a product that is difficult to stop eating. What we do is design a product based off of a current trend (flavor, health, etc) and send it through consumer testing for feedback on whether or not they like it and we make changes based on feedback. That’s it. Dr. Mike hit on it perfectly, it’s more the amount of highly palatable foods we’re consuming and less on the “poison” of our food supply. Our real issue is that as a society, Americans consume on average 3500 cals/day and only have 20min of activity. Thats really the core of all the health issues we’re currently experiencing. Amish people (using their example), European countries, etc all have access to ultra-processed foods but don’t see the same obesity issues because culturally they don’t eat as much of them. Lastly, my husband is a plant scientist working in consumable agriculture. He specifically worked in organic crops and sprayed them more than conventional crops with organic pesticides. I don’t say that to scare anyone, but just a fact. Again as Dr. Mike said, it’s probably more important that we’re eating fruits and vegetables and worry less about residue and buying organic (for now). Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

There needs to be a balance. You’re correct that we don’t have activity here in America like they do in Europe but after being there, they don’t eat the amounts of processed foods that Americans do Also their ingredients are DIFFERENT Their coke is made with cane sugar and ours is made with corn syrup. Why? They have less ingredients in their processed foods than us. Why? Scientific studies have shown that corny syrup and artificial sugars are more addicting and other chemicals put in food do make it more addicting. Why can’t we remove those?
@jessd0223
@jessd0223 25 күн бұрын
@ EU foods really aren’t that much different than ours, and we have banned ingredients here that are allowed in the EU. It goes both ways, and that’s usually not talked about. Our labels often look longer compared to EU because we are required to list out sub-ingredients where EU does not have to in some cases (i.e. more transparency in US ingredient decks). As for sugars, your body literally doesn’t know the difference. Corn syrup, cane sugar, honey, etc are just some combination of glucose and fructose. EU does have high fructose corn syrup, they just label it as glucose fructose syrup. There are no valid studies showing that sugar has addictive properties, BUT fructose is sweeter than glucose so these syrups tend to make food taste sweeter than conventional table sugar. More sweet sometimes = more palatable. That’s it. Also, there are efficiency reasons as to why it is easier to use sweeter sugar syrups vs storing large amounts of table sugar. We are actually able to use less syrup for the same sweetness as table sugar (cost savings for the company and the customer), and store more materials in house. That’s just one example, but there are wayyyyy more things at play that scientists have to consider when choosing ingredients than the general public realizes.
