Episode 123: Dr. Gary Fettke

Dr. Gary Fettke is an Orthopedic Surgeon practicing in Tasmania, Australia. He has a major interest in preventative medicine and encourages his patients to lose weight before undergoing surgery.   Although his specialty is surgery, Gary believes it is much better to help people avoid surgery if at all possible, by taking preventative measures, which often involve altering the diet.   In recent years Gary has focused on the role of diet in the development of diabetes, obesity, and cancer. He has been speaking out on the combined role of sugar, fructose, refined carbohydrates, and polyunsaturated oils linking together to be behind inflammation and modern disease.   He has incurred the wrath of regulatory bodies for his stand on public health, but he and his wife, Belinda, whom we interviewed in Episode 9, remain active in defending the benefits of low carb healthy fat living. Their ongoing work has uncovered vested interests and ideologies shaping nutritional guidelines at an international level.   In this episode: Dr. Fettke shares his personal story Sugar and orthopedic disorders Dr. Fettke's investigation Pushback Dr. Fettke receives We find out what's next for Dr. Fettke He answers our Signature Question And so much more     Follow Dr. Fettke: www.nofructose.com www.isupportgary.com Facebook: Belinda Fettke No Fructose Twitter: Fructose No   Food Junkies: Recovery From Food Addiction https://www.amazon.com/Food-Junkies-Recovery-Addiction/dp/1459741978 Sugar-Free for Life Support: I'm Sweet Enough https://www.facebook.com/groups/SugarFreeForLife   The content of our show is educational only.
