Episode 200: Dr. Jodi Nishida
Episode description
Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD Podcast. Dr. Jodi Nishida is a Pharm D, based in Honolulu, Hawaii. Dr. Jodi is the owner & primary provider of The Keto Prescription in Honolulu. She received her PharmD degree from the University of Southern California and is the only accredited Metabolic Health Practitioner in Hawaii specializing in low carb, ketogenic nutrition. After an encounter with Jimmy Moore's book, Keto Clarity, she adopted the keto diet as an experiment. After six months on the diet, she saw her severe psoriatic arthritis go into remission!
In their conversation, Brian, Tro, and Jodi discuss how many regulations are involved in trying to help people, the sad reality that there are some dishonest hustlers in medicine, strategies for dealing with carbohydrate addiction in patients who are new to keto, what it takes to open a private practice specializing in low-carb and keto in the modern health world, the necessity for a network of good people working together to make an effective alternative, lifestyle-focused healthcare system work, the tragic lack of compassion that plagues medicine, and the economic efficiency of focusing healthcare on prevention and reversal via lifestyle intervention.
