He explains how functional medicine identifies underlying causes of illness, why regenerative therapies may reduce the need for surgery, and how practitioners are building independent health businesses outside the insurance model.We also explore AI-driven healthcare tools, preventative testing, and why the future of medicine may be more personalised, data-driven, and focused on long-term health outcomes.📌 Subscribe for more conversations on fixing the broken healthcare system.#FunctionalMedicine #Longevity #RootCause #MetabolicHealth #PreventativeHealth #RegenerativeMedicine #HealthcareInnovation #Biohacking #HealthOptimization #FutureOfHealthcare #Wellness #AIHealthcare 01:00 Tim Organ & Health Business Growth Collective 04:20 Personal health transformation & body composition changes 07:00 Protein intake, diet tracking & metabolic health 10:00 Lifestyle habits & fitness discipline 13:30 Longevity fundamentals: exercise, diet & sleep 16:30 Functional medicine vs symptom-based healthcare 20:00 Finding the root cause of chronic illness 23:00 Tim’s healthcare career journey 27:00 Digital healthcare systems & medical technology 29:30 Why practitioners are leaving insurance-based models 33:00 Challenges doctors face inside traditional healthcare 36:00 Regenerative medicine vs surgery 41:00 Why many orthopaedic procedures may be avoidable 45:00 AI in healthcare & interpreting lab data 48:30 Expanding access to functional medicine 51:00 Food systems, nutrition & chronic disease 54:00 Personal responsibility & preventative health 57:00 The future of personalised medicine 1:02:00 Business models for modern practitioners 1:07:00 Technology & data-driven health insights 1:12:00 Longevity mindset & maintaining muscle as we age 1:17:00 Final thoughts on fixing broken healthcare Hosted on Acast.

Explicit Sickboy Sickboy is the only place where terminal diagnoses can peacefully coexist with jokes we probably shouldn't make. Hosted by three best friends, Jeremie, Brian, and Taylor, this show smashes taboos around illness, death, and everything in between. Inspired by Jeremie’s life with Cystic Fibrosis, we dive headfirst into the uncomfortable, the hilarious, and the heartbreaking. We talk to people living with everything from chronic disease to catastrophic injury, mental health struggles to medical miracles - and we do it with radical empathy, zero BS, and the kind of unfiltered jokes that get us kicked out of support groups.

In the film, she asks how it is possible that so many workers at Disneyland, aka “the happiest place on earth,” can’t afford life's basic necessities, even when they work full time. For the fourth season of All Ears, Abigail poses that question to people who are doing the most Disney thing of all–using their imaginations–in this case to rethink capitalism. She talks with business leaders, union organizers, and economists to learn how they would fix our broken economy. Explicit The Most Important Question Important, Not Important You already know things are broken. You read the news, you listen to the analysis, you've got the outrage. What you don't have is a plan.The Most Important Question — 6x Webby-nominated, 2x Signal Award-nominated — is a weekly conversation with one person who stopped asking "what can I do?" and went and found out. Not pundits. Not commentators. The scientists, doctors, nurses, journalists, farmers, activists, and policymakers who are doing the actual work on the frontlines of climate, public health, democracy, AI, food, water, medicine, and justice.Host Quinn Emmett goes deep with each of them — the infectious disease doctor building new outbreak surveillance tools, the investigative journalist who traced how forever chemicals got into 97% of our blood, the economist building emergency lifeboats for foreign aid that got axed overnight, one of the greatest writers alive reckoning with the history we were never taught — and every conversation ends with something nobody else gives Explicit
