Cardiologist's Plea: Food IS Medicine | Dr. Columbus Batiste
Food is as powerful as any medicine, according to a leading cardiologist.
Dr. Columbus Batiste tells his patients to eat the food that their great grandparents would eat. In essence, for health reasons it is critical that we eat food that will decay and break down rather than stand the test of time.
That is why Dr. Batiste is a major proponent of limiting ultra processed foods in the diet. He warns that we don't know fully understand how the additives in those foods are impacting our body.
Dr. Batiste is one of the key speakers at the HELP Conference in Jupiter, Florida. Today he joins Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast.
