About this listen

 In this conversation, Dr. Rodger Murphree—functional medicine practitioner, author, and telemedicine pioneer—shares the cornerstone principle behind lasting wellness: you can’t overcome chronic illness until you get healthy. After 34 years in practice and more than two decades specializing in fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome, Dr. Murphree distills what he’s learned from thousands of patients: modern medicine treats symptoms, but true recovery comes from addressing root causes. He explains how diet, inflammation, and stress form the underlying blueprint of most chronic conditions—and why the Standard American Diet (SAD) is one of the greatest contributors to disease today. Dr. Murphree also challenges common health myths about saturated fats, cholesterol, and dairy—and provides actionable strategies for regaining control of your health through nutrient-dense foods and sustainable lifestyle habits.
