Joe Rogan Podcast

Dr. Andrew Weil, a self-described specialist of integrative medication, has a conversation with JoeRogan on his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience, regarding numerous subjects in the field of health and cure during their nearly two-hour conversation. Dr. Weil describes integrative medication as a smart blend of conformist and alternative medication.  He goes on to explain how this type of medicine is the finest way forward and away from the existing crisis in the health sector. The crunch—the prevailing deterioration of general health and the emphasis of most of the doctors on one region of the body instead of the whole bode. Dr Weil believes that this may be rectified by integrating a holistic approach.

As the doctor and Rogan converse about the mind-body association, in regard to back ache particularly, Dr. Weil indicates that most back discomfort is resultant from muscle contractions. The spasms start as a mental block, and that if an individual having back aches can attune their mentality, the discomfort may be eased. Rogan and Dr. Weil start talking about the pharmaceutical sector and ways the body may get trapped in series of dependency. Specially, they have a conversation regarding the treatment of anti-depressant medicines and how, by intensifying the body’s level of serotonin through pharmaceutical techniques. The body will down control its manufacture of serotonin and serotonin receptors, which develops a dependence on the medicine. Weil states that physical activities, additional fish oil, and CBD oil are well-researched choices to anti-depressant medicine that he believes should be encouraged for rather than pharmaceutical medication.
