On this episode of the Dr. Tina show, I'm going to get really raw and honest with you and share with you a bit about what I used to do in the past, which was musculoskeletal medicine.

0:19.2

And what I came to find out during my many years in the field of musculoskeletal medicine. And what I came to find out during my many years in the field

0:22.8

of musculoskeletal medicine as both a chiropractor and a naturopathic physician who did a whole lot

0:28.9

of regenerative injection therapies, I got to mingle in the entire world of orthopedics. And what I'm

0:35.5

going to share with you today is about why I think orthopedic

0:39.4

medicine is a scam. This is going to piss off a lot of people. And it's probably going to make me some

enemies. But I am so tired of watching human beings be handled in this medieval way that I want to set the story straight. Here's the deal. So I've

1:28.1

equal your metabolic health and that would tell me the condition of your joints. Welcome to sugar season.

1:34.3

If you don't know, I declare October 31st of every year the start of sugar season. It runs from

1:39.8

Halloween on through into summer. Virtually every month from now until then has some sugary holiday

1:44.8

in which big food tries to derail our best efforts every time you go into any grocery store,

1:49.5

all the sugars front and center. One of the ways I found to stay on track is with my Lumen
