About this listen

Modern medicine is lying to you. Discover the true science behind chronic diseases—and implement an actionable plan to restore your health and longevity once and for all.

For the first time in history, chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and obesity plague our population on a global scale. From a seasoned physician, this paradigm-shifting book comprehensively explains the linked cause of chronic diseases and exposes the misconceptions prevalent in modern medicine.

In Lies I Taught in Medical School, Robert Lufkin, MD, explains that metabolic dysfunction is the common underlying cause of most chronic diseases that has been overlooked for decades, providing the tools needed to prevent and reverse them in ourselves. He draws on expansive, peer-reviewed evidence, proving that standard medical recommendations are killing us.

Over the course of twelve illustrated chapters, Lies I Taught in Medical School chronicles how Dr. Lufkin reversed four chronic diseases in himself and expertly supplies the strategies needed to:

  • Reduce chronic disease risk factors, such as inflammation and insulin resistance
  • Stabilize mental health via nutrition and lifestyle
  • Improve diet and metabolism
  • Treat obesity, diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular and other common chronic diseases
  • Get off unnecessary medications, including many diabetes and hypertension drugs

What’s more, Dr. Lufkin offers practical advice to show how lifestyle factors such as nutrition, sleep, exercise, and stress management can target the fundamental cause of chronic diseases. Lies I Taught in Medical School is a revolutionary and holistic guide that will help you take control of your health—before it’s too late.

Bonus features include a downloadable action plan for metabolic health and longevity, and a FREE membership in the Lies I Taught in Medical School online book club community.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Food for thought

This is better and more sane sounding than the last book on health by a medical doctor that I listened to. aThos os convincing and doable.

Bold new perspectives

I am impressed by the truths and lies explained by the author; all very eye opening. I hate how it reads like an infomercial or a soap opera (more about this in the next chapter). And when he does get to some final answers, after spending the whole book backing his reasoning with good scientific evidence, he fails us by justifying his extreme recommendations by saying essentially, "It works for me and so it should work for you." I'm sorry that's only anecdotal evidence or a study based on a population of n=1. And for as much as he accused the medical industry of being financially biased, his final recommendations seem to be very biased towards things that he promotes. Almost seems like he's got something to gain from several of them.

As negative as this review may seem, the book really did present a lot of good information and will make you rethink how you eat and what real or fake benefits (or harm) there may be to the medicines you take.

Wish I could buy for everyone

Oh boy, do I wish I could buy a copy of this title for everyone I know! I have been looking into nutrition and exercise for the past 18 months to improve my health and that of my immediate family and by chapter 4 of this audio book I knew I had to obtain the kindle and hardcopy versions as well. It encapsulates most of what I have been learning about in an easy to follow format without being overloaded, overbearing, or preachy. A perfect resource to explain the changes I feel compelled to make in our home, and so wish everyone I know and care about could also engage in.

I may end up buying 10 or more copies when the paperback becomes available so I can gift it to anyone who shows the slightest interest in the subjects contained herein.

Excellent content.

My only minor complaint is the flagrant mispronunciation of chemistry and medical terms. I don’t understand why readers, who are otherwise professional, don’t consult with someone regarding proper pronunciation.

Good flow.

No method of finding references in the pdf. Image numbers or page numbers would have been nice.
