How Did American Healthcare Become “Sick Care”? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The United States is extraordinarily good at treating illness. But how did we end up with a healthcare system that is much better structured to pay for sickness than to plan for long term health? In this episode of No Filter Doctor, I trace the history of American healthcare from the first hospital insurance plans through employer sponsored insurance, Medicare and Medicaid, managed care, the Affordable Care Act, PBMs, prior authorization, and the corporate consolidation of healthcare. There is n
Topical Skin Care for Aging Skin: What Actually Works? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The skin care industry is filled with creams, serums, and active ingredients promising younger-looking skin. But which topical ingredients actually have evidence behind them?

Why the Same Diet and Exercise Stop Working After 40 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You are eating well. You exercise. You have not dramatically changed your habits. So why is your body suddenly changing in midlife? In this episode of No Filter Doctor, I explain why the same diet and exercise routine that worked in your 20s and 30s may stop working after 40, particularly for women. We discuss how aging, declining estrogen, loss of muscle mass, changes in metabolism, visceral fat, sleep, and insulin resistance converge during midlife. More importantly, we talk about what needs t
