On today's Wellness Wednesday, we\u2019re joined by Dr. Marty Makary, surgeon, health care expert, and public policy researcher at Johns Hopkins University, to discuss his new book, \u201cBlind Spots: When Medicine Gets It Wrong, and What It Means for Our Health.\u201d We start off with an explanation of the medical system\u2019s disgraceful track record with chronic illnesses and speculate why the rates of cancer and autism, among other diagnoses, seem to be increasing more than ever. Are medical institutions incentivized to keep us sick? How have doctors gotten the science wrong on peanut allergies, skin-to-skin contact, and umbilical cord clamping? Dr. Makary explains how antibiotics might be destroying your gut and why that\u2019s a bigger deal than you think.\xa0\n\nGet Dr. Makary's book here: https://a.co/d/1Mh2Lvb\n\nGet your tickets for Share the Arrows: https://www.sharethearrows.com/\n\nPre-order Allie's new book: https://a.co/d/4COtBxy\n\n---\n\nTimecodes:\n\n(01:13) Introduction to Dr. Makary's work\n(03:36) Medicine\u2019s terrible track record\n(07:50) Why are we seeing more chronic illnesses now?\n(15:12) Are they incentivized to keep us sick?\n(23:00) Vax & masks\n(27:55) Peanut allergies\n(32:55) Hospital births\n(45:10) Antibiotics\n(49:48) Microbiomes\n(56:35) Inflammation & what can we do?\n(58:30) Hormone replacement therapy\n\n---\n\nToday's Sponsors:\n\nSeven Weeks - Experience the best coffee while supporting the pro-life movement with Seven Weeks Coffee; use code ALLIE at https://www.sevenweekscoffee.com to save up to 25% and help save lives.\n\nCrowdHealth \u2014 get your first 6 months for just $99/month.
