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.

244: The Metabolic Root of Depression, Anxiety, & Mental Illness - Dr. Lori Calabrese
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Dr. Lori Calabrese is a psychiatrist whose trajectory changed when a patient with 15 years of treatment-resistant anorexia went into full remission after a ketogenic diet. What followed was a research journey — pilot studies, peer-reviewed case series, and a now-funded randomized controlled trial — consistently showing that depression, anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, and other conditions could achieve complete remission, not just symptom reduction, through metabolic intervention. The key mechanism isn't neurotransmitter adjustment but mitochondrial health: when the brain runs on ketones, it receives a more stable fuel that reduces the erratic neurological firing behind panic, mania, obsessive loops, and psychosis.
