Can medications be quietly robbing your body of essential nutrients? Join me, Dr. Jewel White-Williams, as I engage with Dr. Kathy Campbell, a visionary clinical wellness pharmacist and TEDxTulsa 2018 speaker, to answer this pressing question. Together, we unravel the complex relationship between drug-induced nutrient deficiencies and holistic health. Dr. Campbell offers her expert insights into the crucial role pharmacists play in safeguarding our well-being. Her groundbreaking program, Dr. Kathy's Nourish, champions the concept of food as medicine, promoting community health through pharmacy-led initiatives.

In our exploration, we shift the focus from obesity as a mere weight issue to a symptom revealing deeper health concerns. Drawing from my own experiences in nutritional and evolutionary science, we shed light on the profound impact of ultra-processed foods on our biochemical balance. We champion a proactive approach to health, emphasizing early detection of insulin imbalances to prevent conditions like diabetes. This episode challenges the traditional narrative of weight management and underscores the intricate links between diet, lifestyle, and our overall health.
