Up+Adam today, Dr. Marty Makary, a Johns Hopkins medical expert, public health researcher, and New York Times bestselling author of Blind Spots: How Medicine Gets It Wrong and What You Need to Know About Your Health. Dr. Makary takes us on a deep dive into the blind spots in modern medicine that have led to public harm and misinformation over the years. From the rise of peanut allergies due to misguided advice, to the widespread misuse of antibiotics and the critical oversights surrounding hormone replacement therapy (HRT), Dr. Makary sheds light on how the medical establishment has gone astray—and what we can do to navigate our health better.

Adam and Dr. Makary tackle the most urgent, unsung issues in today’s $4.5 trillion healthcare system, touching on critical topics like the microbiome, childbirth, cancer prevention, and the evolving culture of medicine. Together, they explore why medicine sometimes gets it wrong, how public dogma can shape scientific progress, and what we need to know to make better decisions about our health. Don’t miss this eye-opening conversation that could change the way you think about healthcare.
