984. No Bang for the Buck

In 2021, $4.1 trillion dollars was spent on healthcare in the United States. Despite that, 93% of the population has some form of metabolic syndrome. That number went up 5% since 2016 when it was 88%. We’re spending more money than ever and it’s not producing results. Dr. Martin says it’s because of the current health philosophy.

Join Dr. Martin as he discusses the recent Tufts University article, Five Components of Heart and Metabolic Health.
