But cardiologist and heart surgeon Dr. Philip Ovadia says we've been fighting the wrong battle. Despite decades of lowering cholesterol with drugs and dietary advice, heart disease remains the #1 killer in America\u2014and Dr. Ovadia believes it's time to rethink what's really making us sick. After losing more than 100 pounds by adopting a diet centered primarily on meat, Dr. Ovadia began challenging conventional wisdom about cholesterol, nutrition, and metabolic health. Mike sits down with the bestselling author of  Stay Off My Operating Table to discuss why he believes insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction\u2014not cholesterol\u2014are driving the epidemic of heart disease. They also dive into his new book,  Stay Off My Kitchen Table, available today, and explore why his message has become one of the most talked-about\u2014and controversial\u2014in modern medicine.
