Dr. Stefano Sinicropi is a board-certified orthopaedic spine surgeon whose career spans two decades and over 9,000 surgeries. Through his surgical experience, he has become alarmed by the epidemic of chronic disease which has ignited a profound passion for exploring the science of wellness and help people live healthier, more balanced lives, and arm the medical community with information and guidance on progressive, evidence-based approaches. In this episode, we explore Dr Sinicropi’s concerns about the current state of human health, the rapid rise in chronic disease, the need for a shift towards a more holistic approach to healthcare and the importance of lifestyle changes in preventing and reversing chronic illnesses. We discuss the failures that exist within the Western healthcare system from the overprescription of pharmaceuticals, the influence of big pharma and big food, treating symptoms rather than addressing root causes, and how medical professionals lack education and training in holistic health, nutrition, and lifestyle interventions. Finally, Dr. Sinicropi shares what it means to become the CEO of our own health and why this is crucial more than ever! In this episode, we discuss the following...
