Summary
Why aren't doctors taught nutrition?
In this powerful conversation, Dr. Kim Scheuer joins Chuck Carroll to share how her own health transformation led her to question everything she learned in traditional medicine — and ultimately embrace lifestyle medicine.
From ultra-processed foods in hospitals to real-world patient transformations, this episode of The Exam Room Podcast explores the gap between modern medicine and true health.
🧠 You will learn:
- Why nutrition education is missing in medical school
- The dangers of ultra-processed foods
- How lifestyle medicine can reverse chronic disease
- What a "pantry raid" can reveal about your health
- The surprising benefits of living off the grid
