Call it holistic, functional, metabolic, integrative, longevity, or whatever, but this episode expresses some of my concerns about the direction of what I refer to as the rising "alt health" movement. Interestingly, I'm part of both alt health and mainstream medicine, so I'll share my take from both sides. I'll discuss: The story of "Dr.Bob," a fictional alt health practitioner whose practice is rife with hypocrisy and questionable practices The story of "Diane," a fictional patient anecdote based on patient and audience feedback, who is going bankrupt purchasing alt health services.  How the supplement industry is morphing into its own version of "Big Pharma" Defending mainstream doctors, an unfortunate target of the alt health movement Blindspots and potential harms of alt health messaging Some thoughts on how alt health and mainstream medicine can collaborate better
