Episode 36: Changing the World with Unconventional Medicine – A Conversation with Chris Kresser

When Chris Kresser, M.S., L.Ac, was in his early twenties, he
traveled the world surfing and learning to meditate. Along the way,
he fell ill — and when he returned to the States he discovered that
the conventional medical paradigm had little to offer when it came
to treating complex, chronic illness. So he embarked on his own
healing journey, studying acupuncture and Chinese medicine and
learning about ancestral health. Today he is a globally recognized
leader in the fields of functional and integrative medicine. In
this podcast, he talks with Dr. Fitzgerald about being one of the
first holistic practitioners to establish a solid online presence;
why blogging and writing about functional, ancestral, and
integrative approaches to health matter today more than ever; and
how the current medical paradigm needs to be reinvented both to
prevent and reverse chronic disease and to prevent the collapse of
the entire healthcare system. His new book Unconventional Medicine
is available now.
