Stay Off My Operating Table
I was a morbidly obese heart surgeon.
All through high school, college, med school and surgical training, I followed the U.S. dietary guidelines for both diet and exercise. Yet nothing I did kept the weight off.
I just kept getting fatter and fatter.
Each day in surgery, I would split open the chests of people just like me. I knew I was heading for the operating table myself if I didn't find solutions that worked.
In 2016, I finally found a way to lose 100 pounds and keep it off.
Now - in addition to doing heart surgery - I work to help people just like me get healthy, lose the weight and keep it off.
I'm Dr. Philip Ovadia, the rebel M.D. and cardiac surgeon who is working to keep people off my operating table.

Beyond Calories: Understanding the Real Causes of Weight Gain with Dr. Lonky - Dr. Stewart Lonky
Environmental toxins cause epigenetic changes that make fat cells malfunction, leading to obesity that is difficult to reverse through diet alone.
KISMET
The average newborn baby has over 200 toxic chemicals in their placental blood before they take their first breath, and laboratory animals on strictly controlled diets are getting fatter despite no changes to their food intake.
EPISODE SUMMARY
In this compelling episode, pulmonologist Dr. Stewart Lonky shares groundbreaking insights about why traditional approaches to weight loss often fail. Drawing from his book "Outsmarting Obesity," he explains how environmental toxins cause fat cells to malfunction, making weight management increasingly difficult. Dr. Lonky reveals that fat cells are actually endocrine organs that become dysfunctional when they grow too large, leading to reduced oxygen absorption and improper hormone signaling. The conversation takes an unexpected turn when he discusses how common household items like non-stick cookware, air fresheners, and even stain-resistant fabrics contribute to obesity through chemicals called obesogens. These substances trigger epigenetic changes that can affect weight regulation for multiple generations. Dr. Lonky offers practical solutions through his AIPE protocol (Accept, Identify, Prevent, Eliminate) and explains how specific compounds like zeolites can help remove toxic substances from the body.
