Summary

Dr. Ken Berry wants us all to be aware that much of what our doctors say may be a lie. Maybe not an outright malicious lie, but much of what "we" believe in medicine can be traced back to word-of-mouth teachings without a scientific basis. In his book, "Lies My Doctor Told Me" he uncovers the most common of these misconceptions. He also shares his story how he learned the power of a ketogenic diet and how that has revolutionized his ability to help his patients. Dr. Berry has an open and honest approach and pulls no punches. That's one reason why he is always informative and entertaining!

0:00.0	Welcome back to the Diet Doctor Podcast with Dr. Brett Schur.

0:37.3	to just give as much information
0:39.0	to as many people because he believes so dearly and so strongly in the benefits of low carb
0:45.2	lifestyle. And he approaches this from a very unique perspective that he really says if we're
0:50.8	going to change the way we've been eating from an ancestral standpoint,
0:55.3	we need to have extremely strong data to support that.
0:59.0	And as he points out, that type of approach, that type of data or perspective is lacking
1:04.2	in almost every recommendation we currently have as a mainstream nutritional guideline.
1:09.4	So it really flies in the face of common practice in medicine and in nutrition and he's
1:15.9	not shy about pointing that out.
1:18.1	So as any discussion with Dr. Barry, this is very entertaining and energetic with a great
1:24.9	perspective from him.
