Is our healthcare system more focused on managing symptoms than truly healing?
In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Raj Gupta—renowned wellness expert, media contributor, and author—joins us to challenge the mainstream “pill for an ill” approach and introduce a powerful alternative: treating the root cause, not just the fruit of chronic disease.
Dr. Gupta, featured in NBC, FOX News Radio, Reader’s Digest, U.S. News & World Report, and more, brings deep insight and a refreshing perspective on what it really takes to reclaim your health. With his upcoming book "Reverse Your Diabetes: Treat the Root NOT the Fruit," he empowers people to break free from the pharmaceutical mindset and embrace science-backed lifestyle changes that make a lasting impact.
In this conversation, we dive into:
Why the “pill for an ill” model is failing us
The root causes of type 2 diabetes and how to reverse them naturally
The overlooked role of micronutrients in supporting both mental health and metabolic balance
How to become your own health advocate in a system that often prioritizes treatment over prevention
Whether you're navigating your own health journey or simply curious about a more holistic path forward, this episode will challenge what you think you know about medicine—and inspire you to take back control.
