About this listen

When he weighed 350lb, Dr. Tro Kalayjian began questioning everything he'd learned about obesity in medical school. Instead of following the recommendations in his textbooks, he decided to read the scientific literature for himself.


He discovered that low carbohydrate diets were an effective treatment for morbid obesity, and he lost more than 150lbs. Then he had to wonder, "What else could possibly be wrong with allopathic medical advice?"


Lots.


In this episode of the Uncommon Living podcast, Dr. Tro explains why he does not take the flu vaccine, and how he convinced his medical superiors to allow him an exemption. He talks with Thomas Seager, PhD, about his work as a board-certified physician specializing in Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine, how he gets his patients off the prescribed medications that they don't need, and his experiences with cold water immersion therapy.
