Don't Wait for the Crisis

We wait for crisis to happen. You know, it hit me hard after years of seeing patients who came to me after a heart attack when we could have prevented that heart attack. The warning signs were always there. You know, these people had high insulin levels, they had too much inflammation, they had imbalance in their hormones, they had visceral fat, which is a fat around your organs, not just the outside fat. But no one connected the dots until it was too late. And I started feeling like I was putting off fires all the time that could have been prevented. And I remember thinking that we don't need more emergency rooms to fix problems. We need more early detection rooms where we can help people map their health, create the roadmap to a vibrant living, or create their health journey so that they can understand based on their risk factors, based on their family history, based on their stress.
