About this episode

In this episode of Prevention Over Prescription, Dr. K explores how metabolic syndrome develops and why early intervention could transform preventative healthcare. Can metabolic disease really be reversed through lifestyle changes? And how could acting earlier reduce chronic disease, ICU admissions, and healthcare costs? Drawing on lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. K introduces the PRESS methodology, focusing on purpose, recovery, eating, strength, and social connection. He also examines how technology, team-based care, and community health initiatives can help identify risk earlier and give people practical tools to improve their metabolic health. Hosted on Acast.
