24. Dr. Nick Norwitz: Harvard Doc Tells How He Cured Himself When Standard Medicine Failed
Episode description
In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Nick Norwitz, who is, in his own words, a researcher educator whose mission is to make metabolic health mainstream. Dr. Norwitz has a PhD in human metabolism from Oxford University and is about to get an MD from Harvard Medical School. We are interested here in his own story of healing chronic illness, in which modern standard medicine absolutely failed him and forced him to find his own path back to health. And this sheds a lot of light on the value of individualizing metabolic health care. And in fact, his story illustrates the n of 1 model of health care, which can often be the only way to work out the best diet or best therapy for whatever ails us and which I believe is the future of medicine.
Doctor Norwitz also shares his insights about the process of human change and just exactly what motivated him when he knew he needed to make changes for his own survival.
