The Truth Prescription - Hacking Your Health with Dr Brooke Bussard MD - 289

All of us want to be healthy, happy and live a long and active life, but getting clarity on how to achieve that is a struggle. The information we get is often tainted by corporate interests pushing us in the direction of their products or pills, and all of this can leave you feeling like you’re in a maze full of dead ends, getting spun around with no way to find the right path to wellness. In the meantime, many of us are getting diagnosed with obesity and chronic diseases that can feel like a prison sentence.  When I heard Dr Brooke Bussard speak, it felt like there was light at the end of the tunnel. I had so many ‘aha’ moments that I felt sure my head would explode!  Brooke qualified as an MD in internal medicine, so that she could help to make people better. However, despite all her medical knowledge, she couldn’t find out what was causing her own chronic pain.  One day she had her own light-bulb moment, and it changed the trajectory of her life and the tools that she used to make people well.  She is a sought-after speaker, author, and member of The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and the American College of Lifestyle Medicine.  I am so thrilled to have her on the show, so that she can share more about how she engages her audiences and clients, and transforms them from confused consumers to empowered eaters.  Enjoy! What you’ll discover: The trigger for Brooke changing the way she approached healing people. Why most of the world is lactose intolerant. It’s not your will power, it's what’s in the cheese.  The propaganda that is pushing us into our graves. Why employers should care more about nutrition.  How Brooke has reversed chronic diseases.  Why is the medical profession is sticking plasters on broken legs. The things that you should know about the food we are encouraged to eat today. The biggest obstacles to people taking back control of their health and waistline. Why Brooke wrote her book ‘Chew on this’ Where speaking fits in the picture for sharing this message.   All things Brooke: https://plantsoveranimals.com/  https://plantsoveranimals.com/quick-cooks  Chew on This on Amazon: https://a.co/d/53CqYgt  If you are active on social media, please provide your links below:: www.linkedin.com/in/brooke-bussard-md  IG: @educated_eating IG: @plantsoveranmls   Books & Resources*: Walking With Peety by Eric O’Grey   Resources: Grab Your From Blank Page to Stage Guide and Nail the Topic for a Client Winning Talk Want to get better at finding and sharing your stories then check out our FREE Five Day Snackable Story Challenge   Thanks for listening!   To share your thoughts:                                                   Share this show on X, Facebook or LinkedIn.
