YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn this episode my guest is Dr. Vivek Murthy, the acting U.S. Surgeon General, who earned his undergraduate degree from Harvard and his M.D. from Yale School of Medicine. We discuss nutrition, food additives, social media and mental health, public health initiatives to combat the crisis of social isolation, the obesity crisis, addiction and other pressing issues in public health. Dr. Murthy explains the role of the U.S. government in promoting specific public health issues and the steps needed to rebuild public trust in scientific and medical information. We also address health care accessibility, insurance barriers and individual versus team-based medical care, along with topics gleaned from listener questions, such as the facts and myths about the “Big Pharma” and “Big Food” industries, scientific research and public health policies.
