Miguel and Carlos join the show to examine how modern medicine drifted away from metabolic health and toward symptom management. From cardiovascular disease to low testosterone, they argue that the real drivers of chronic illness are rarely addressed — and often financially disincentivized. We explore the pharmaceutical model of care, why heart disease remains the leading cause of death despite decades of intervention, and how dietary dogma, flawed cholesterol narratives, and hormonal neglect created a silent epidemic. The discussion covers insulin resistance, inflammation, testosterone decline, seed oils, statins, and the systemic incentives that shape medical guidance. This episode is not anti-medicine — it’s pro-incentive awareness. When you follow the money, treatment often replaces prevention. When you follow metabolic science, the story looks very different. Health is not a pill problem — it’s a metabolic problem.
