A growing number of patients and medical practitioners are raising the alarm regarding both the perceived and actual conflicts which exist in the practice of medicine and in medical research. These presentations are intended to help broaden the discussion between individuals and their licensed healthcare practitioners
Shared from the CrossFit® YouTube Channel: “Evidence-based medicine is actually so corrupt as to be useless or harmful,” Marcia Angell wrote in 2009. The statement was less a revelation than something many already knew, but it made waves because of its source. Angell, a medical insider, had spent two decades as the editor-in-chief of the New England Journal of Medicine. Dr. Jason Fung is also a medical insider who has become wary of scientific research that purports to be “evidence based.” A well-known nephrologist and author, Fung often speaks about Type-2 diabetes reversal and the metabolic effects of intermittent fasting, but in this presentation from Dec. 15, 2018, he turns his focus toward the many ways the foundations of evidence-based medicine have become corrupted by financial conflicts of interest."

Shared via the CrossFit® YouTube channel: "I want to show you how we are deceived,” Dr. David Diamond told the audience at the 2019 CrossFit Health Conference. Diamond, who has a Ph.D. in biology and 40 years of experience as a neuroscientist, spoke on a topic that drew his interest later in his career: cholesterol science and the various forms of deception apparent in research on cholesterol-lowering statins. Diamond developed an interest in cholesterol and statins in 1999 after being diagnosed with familial hypertriglyceridemia, a genetic anomaly that causes triglyceride levels in the blood to become elevated and leads to additional health complications such as obesity... After delving into the medical research, he realized, “Damn! It’s the bread, and the potatoes, and the sugar I’ve been eating. I’ve been so happy eating bread without butter, and … it’s the bread that’s driving up my triglycerides.” He continued, “I was struck by this epiphany that I’d been given the wrong information.”

Shared via the Commonwealth Club of California YouTube channel: "Food processing isn’t listed on the nutrition facts food label. The label tells you what’s in the food.

In this program, Dr. Robert Lustig will explain nutrition and food science. He says that essentially, all you need to know are two precepts, six words total: 1) protect the liver, 2) feed the gut..."
