Episode 302: Dr. Maira Soliani

Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD
Podcast. Dr. Maira Soliani is a low-carb anesthesiologist from
Brazil. Dr. Soliani graduated in 2009 and concluded her
anesthesiology specialty in 2013. She holds a PhD since 2016 from
Campinas State University (UNICAMP) in Brazil. After realizing
that a great part of her patients’ postoperative complications
were closely related to modern chronic metabolic diseases and
that low-carb, high-healthy-fat (LCHF) diets and fasting could
prevent them from becoming sick in the first place, she started
treating patients with metabolic diseases and obesity in her
clinic in Brazil.


In this conversation, Drs. Tro, Brian, and Maira talk about the
work of Gary Taubes and Dr. Jason Fung, how Maira started
treating patients using a low-carb lifestyle intervention
approach, how often a doctor should meet with a patient for
optimal results, the logistics and organization involved in
providing excellent, dedicated service to a large amount of
patients, defining and treating food addiction, loneliness,
metabolic disease, and mental health, the importance of social
support as a factor for success with one’s diet, the power of
mindset, studies on the placebo effect, the power of motivational
interviewing, and The Hacking of the American Mind by Robert
Lustig.
