	Description:		For over 50 years, Dr. Michael Klaper has practiced medicine. And today, he says something that stops you in your tracks: “I am profoundly embarrassed to be a physician in America today.” Why? Because most doctors are never trained in the most powerful tool available to prevent and reverse chronic disease: nutrition. In this deeply personal and wide-ranging conversation, Rip sits down with Dr. Klaper to discuss his new book, Moving Medicine Forward: What More Doctors Should Know About Nutrition and How It Can Save Your Life. Dr. Klaper shares: How witnessing violence in a trauma unit led him toward a philosophy of nonviolence The moment in the operating room that changed his understanding of heart disease forever Why “etiology unknown” is no longer an acceptable excuse The concept of the “Toxic Red Tide” flooding the bloodstream after animal-based meals Why obesity is a state of chronic inflammation How GLP-1 drugs should (and shouldn’t) be used What a true “Disease Reversal Clinic” could look like How doctors and patients alike can help move medicine forward This episode is both a wake-up call and a roadmap. Because some chronic disease isn’t inevitable. And healing can occur.
