The School of Greatness · She Was Given a Death Sentence at 65. She Lived to 96 | Dr. Michael Greger · 28 Nov 2025 podcast

And so you just imagine all of medicine changing.

Here we are decades later.

That was 1990.

Here we are over three decades later.

Hundreds of thousands of Americans continue to die from heart disease, a preventable, arrestable, sometimes even reversible condition, which we've known about for decades.

just because this has yet to really penetrate into the medical field, and that's because the incentives are wrong.

Actually, you know, hospitals make money cutting people open, and these are the golden goof for big pharma, lifestyle drugs, where instead of 10 days on an antibiotic to save your life, it's take a drug every single day for the rest of your life.

that's how you make money, right?

But the only drug you need that for is these lifestyle diseases where if you continue to treat yourself like this, well, of course you need something.

And look, if you refuse to improve your life, then these drugs can be life-saving.

I mean, so, but even better, why not try to reverse

the disease by treating the underlying cause in the first place.

Well, so, yeah, so I started out in clinical practice, but then I realized, like, even though, you know, I don't know how many people you could pack into a day, you know,

how many people am I reaching, right?

So people were dying everywhere.

And so then I started giving lectures and going around to medical schools and trying to train the next generation of doctors.

But even then, how many people can you reach?

You can reach hundreds, right?

So then I started, this was actually so long ago, it was like a VHS series.

I started making, well, why don't I tape these lectures, right, and then send out these VHS tapes.
