Episode #05 Redefining Chronic Disease: Dr. Olivia Lesslar’s Approach Beyond the Pill
Manage episode 380595107 series 3522742
Today on The Global Affair, we speak to Dr Olivia Ly Lesslar, an Australian medical practitioner who has interest in preventative medicine and psychoneuroimmunology. Her expertise is in biochacking and non-pharmaceutical interventions for complex conditions like neurodegeneration, cancer, the emerging pentad of MCAS-Dysautonomia-Hypermobility-GI dysmotility-Autoimmunity, and non-IgE driven allergies. In this episode, she joins us to discuss her views on global health.
The health system is not set up to deal with the growing number of patients that have multiple issues. People are collecting diseases like Pokemon cards and the current solution of just using drugs to dampen symptoms is no longer effective. Dr. Lesslar argues that this approach is not doing anyone any favors, and that there needs to be a different way of treating chronic diseases.
The conversation focuses on the importance of food and exercise in the domain of health and wellness. It is argued that the knowledge and expertise of exercise physiologists, personal trainers, and nutritionists have been undervalued and that many people do not believe in their ability to heal themselves. It is noted that patients often need something tangible, such as a pill or injection, to believe that their treatment plan is real. It is suggested that people have become obsessed with diagnoses instead of healthspans, and that they need to take back control of their health.
