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.

249: You've Seen 10 Doctors and Still Aren't Better. Here's Why - Reed Davis
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You got the tests. You got the diagnosis — maybe more than one. You took the medication. And you still don't feel like yourself.
Reed Davis has spent 30 years working with exactly those people. As the founder of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition, he's trained over 5,000 practitioners in a methodology built on one counterintuitive premise: chasing a diagnosis may be the wrong move entirely.
Instead of narrowing in on a label, Reed looks for what he calls metabolic chaos — a constellation of interconnected dysfunction across hormones, immunity, digestion, detoxification, energy production, and the nervous system. The body, he argues, already knows how to heal. The job is to stop obstructing it.
What that looks like in practice — and the stories of what happens when you get it right — is where this conversation gets interesting.
BIG IDEA
You're supposed to live yourself out of the problems you've lived yourself into.
