HUGE PIECE IN THE TIMES TODAY! I am delighted to see the @thetimes cover my thoughts on health in such a big way today. We are an over-medicated country. 80-90% of what doctors see each day is in some way related to our collective modern lifestyles - yet, most of the options you get given by your doctor relate to pharmaceutical medication. WE WILL NOT OUT-PRESCRIBE OUR WAY OUT OF THE CURRENT HEALTHCARE CRISIS - THERE HAS TO BE (AND THERE IS!!) ANOTHER WAY. The number of prescriptions that we give out as doctors has increased by over 80 per cent in the last 20 years. And the uncomfortable truth is that a lot of the pills are simply not working. This Thursday on @channel4 at 8pm my new 1 hour prime time documentary ‘Live Well With The Drug Free Doctor’ comes out. It is a deep dive into the healthcare crisis and I show how in 3 different conditions, type 2 diabetes, chronic pain & depression, it is possibly to completely heal without the use of medication. Our lifestyles can be our very best medicine. That is what my entire public facing career is all about and I cannot wait for the British public to watch the Channel 4 show this Thursday evening at 8pm. Let me know your thoughts below and if you plan on watching this Thursday, drop me a ❤️ below!
