In a world where chronic illness is skyrocketing and faith in the healthcare system is fading, Americans are searching for ways to improve their physical and mental health without sacrificing their financial freedom.
In today's episode, Dr. Ben Carson returns to the podcast to discuss some of the most pressing health and policy issues facing the country today, from the overuse of medications to the role of personal responsibility in overall health & wellness.
Dr. Carson is the former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development and a renowned neurosurgeon. We're thrilled to have him share his insights and expertise on America's health crisis, the dangers of ultra-processed food, and why preventative care is key to reversing long-term systemic issues. Drawing from decades of medical experience and public service, he offers a perspective on how government and individual choices shape the future of healthcare.
In their conversation, they explore the issues contributing to the health crisis, the medical system, and the growing impact of the MAHA movement. They also discuss the popularity of GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and how AI and Neuralink can improve Americans' health and lower healthcare costs. Dr. Carson shares thought-provoking ideas that challenge conventional thinking and advocate for a return to logic, transparency, and faith-based values in American society.
In this podcast interview, you’ll learn:
- Why Dr. Carson believes health starts with personal responsibility.
- The dangers of relying on drugs like GLP-1s without behavioral change.
- The environmental and lifestyle factors that are driving chronic disease.
- Why healthcare costs are so high—and what needs to change.
- Dr. Carson’s thoughts on AI in medicine and Neuralink.
- How transparency and health savings accounts could help fix a broken system.
