Fork U with Dr. Terry Simpson

Medicine #106

Fork U(niversity)Not everything you put in your mouth is good for you.There’s a lot of medical information thrown around out there. How are you to know what information you can trust, and what’s just plain old quackery? You can’t rely on your own “google fu”. You can’t count on quality medical advice from Facebook. You need a doctor in your corner.On each episode of Your Doctor’s Orders, Dr. Terry Simpson will cut through the clutter and noise that always seems to follow the latest medical news. He has the unique perspective of a surgeon who has spent years doing molecular virology research and as a skeptic with academic credentials. He’ll help you develop the critical thinking skills so you can recognize evidence-based medicine, busting myths along the way. The most common medical myths are often disguised as seemingly harmless “food as medicine”. By offering their own brand of medicine via foods, These hucksters are trying to practice medicine without a license. And though they’ll claim “nutrition is not taught in medical schools”, it turns out that’s a myth too. In fact, there’s an entire medical subspecialty called Culinary Medicine, and Dr. Simpson is certified as a Culinary Medicine Specialist. Where today's nutritional advice is the realm of hucksters, Dr. Simpson is taking it back to the realm of science.

    Love this food podcast!
    If you're an avid fan of all things food, biology and science - this is a GREAT podcast. Not only is the host a Doctor - but if you look deeper - he's a bariatric surgeon - which really helps with his view on how food works within our bodies - not just tastebuds! I especially LOVE the food myths he continually busts! A true and verified show - with not just some "host" but a man who's gone to the University of Chicago, and backs all his facts with anotated notes - love it.
