Stay Off My Operating Table
I was a morbidly obese heart surgeon. Throughout high school, college, med school and surgical training, I followed the U.S. dietary guidelines for both diet and exercise. Yet nothing I did kept the weight off. I just kept getting bigger and bigger.
Each day in the operating theater I would split open the chests of people just like me. I knew I was heading for the operating table myself if I didn't find solutions that worked.
In 2016, I finally found a way to lose 100 pounds and keep it off.
Now - in addition to doing heart surgery - I work to help people just like me get healthy, lose the weight and keep it off. I'm Dr. Philip Ovadia, the rebel M.D. and cardiac surgeon who is working to keep people off my operating table.

Inflammation, Cell Health and the Hidden Dangers of Processed Oils - Brian Peskin #176
While fish oil supplements are widely promoted for brain health, the brain only needs 2-6mg of DHA per day, and the typical fish oil capsule provides 600mg - a massive 40-100x overdose that can deplete crucial antioxidants.
EPISODE SUMMARY
Professor Brian Peskin, an MIT-trained engineer turned medical researcher, presents groundbreaking insights about essential fatty acids and cellular health.
He explains that 25-33% of our cell membranes are made up of parent essential oils (PEOs) - primarily parent omega-6 and parent omega-3. When these essential building blocks are replaced with processed oils or excessive fish oil supplements, it impairs cellular oxygen absorption and energy production, leading to chronic inflammation.
This cellular dysfunction underlies many modern diseases including heart disease, diabetes, and cognitive decline. Contrary to popular belief, properly sourced organic omega-6 oils are not inflammatory - rather, it's the processing of these oils that creates harmful compounds. Peskin details how getting the right balance of unprocessed parent omega-6 and omega-3 oils, while avoiding processed versions, can help reduce inflammation, improve blood pressure, and even reverse coronary calcium buildup. He emphasizes the importance of organic oils and supplements to counteract the ubiquitous processed oils in our food supply.
NOTABLE QUOTE
"87 percent of what clogs an artery is the adulterated omega-6, not saturated fat like we were told for 30 years... Saturated fat can't combine with anything. There's no binding space on it. It's saturated. There's nothing open. But we have been so misled."
