245: Your Doctor Can't Save You: Dylan Gemelli on Accountability, Arterial Plaque, & the Health System's Blind Spots

Dylan Gemelli went from prison to Milan runways to millions of YouTube subscribers — and then a calcium score of 120 and an LP(a) of 330 stopped him cold at 40 years old. In this conversation with Dr. Philip Ovadia, he breaks down what both the biohacking and conventional medical worlds are getting wrong, why confusion is the real enemy of public health, and how he dropped his LP(a) from 330 to 94 without following his doctor's orders. This episode is equal parts cardiovascular science and hard-won life philosophy — and the two turn out to be inseparable. BIG IDEA If you're not right spiritually, I don't care what anybody says — it's going to be a struggle to fix the other two.
