ABOUT DR. BREWER
Dr. Brewer started as an Emergency Doctor. After seeing too many preventable heart attacks, he went to Johns Hopkins to learn Preventive Medicine. While there, he went on the run the post-graduate training program (residency) in Preventive Medicine. From there, he made a career of practicing and managing preventive medicine and primary care clinics. His later role in this area was Chief Medical Officer for Premise, which has close to 1,000 primary care/prevention clinics. He was also the Chief Medical Officer for MDLIVE, the second largest telemedicine company. More recently, he founded PrevMed, a heart attack, and stroke prevention clinic.

At PrevMed, we focus on heart attack, stroke, and cognitive decline. We serve patients who have already experienced an event as well as those who have not developed a diagnosis or event. Dr. Brewer provides services via telemedicine or in person if you're in the Lexington, KY area. We find a lot of undiagnosed Pre-Diabetes or Insulin Resistance. Treating unrecognized risk factors like Pre-Diabetes allows reduction of risk and prevention of disease.

ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
ford brewer md mph . PrevMedHeartRisk.com
A viewer asked about metformin and weight loss. John L mentioned low carb diet. There are endocrine reasons for a low-carb diet. Not only does it not stop fat burning. It also doesn't trigger ghrelin. Ghrelin is the hunger hormone.
So, again, I think this is some of the clearer evidence about low carb diets. They don't stimulate the hunger hormone Ghrelin. And they don't stimulate adrenal hormones, like cortisol and DHEA.
