The corporate healthcare system operates on a disturbing principle: "A patient cured is a customer lost." This eye-opening statement forms the foundation of our latest deep dive into how insurance companies actively avoid covering treatments that work.
Dr. Jake shares his frustration with shockwave therapy – a treatment with substantial evidence-based research showing 83% effectiveness in healing tissues after just six treatments. Despite being used worldwide for its proven results, not a single U.S. insurance company will cover it. Meanwhile, these same companies happily reimburse for temporary relief methods that require ongoing treatment. The message becomes clear: curing patients isn't profitable in our current medical system.
The conversation shifts to comprehensive nutrition advice as Jenni Berman, PA-C tackles questions about protein sources for vegans, vegetarians, and everyone in between. She recommends incorporating 20-30% of daily protein from plant sources regardless of your dietary preferences. From edamame pasta with 25g of protein per serving to lupini flakes, PB2 powdered nut butter, and protein-fortified vegan yogurts, Jenny provides a master class in complete plant proteins that contain all essential amino acids.
Most fascinating is Jenni's approach to creating high-protein, nutrient-dense foods disguised as treats. By adding vegetables like cauliflower and protein powders to baked goods, she transforms ordinary desserts into nutritional powerhouses that kids devour without knowing they're eating healthy. The episode concludes with Jake challenging Jenny to record cooking videos demonstrating these techniques – with a deadline of May 1st for the first creation!
