But why would he choose a title suggesting all medicine is bad? If my pharmacist gave up drugs I'd be dead, being insulin dependent.
It would be easy to choose a title which doesn't get medicine-dependent people's hackles up, and I expect he has some good things to say!

And my apologies for not listening to it, I really should before judging. I'm not very good with video/audio. If you have a link to a written article I'm willing to read it, if only because I'm judging by a title, which isn't completely right.

It's his "thing:"... in that he prefers deprescription of medication rather than piling more on top.

He'd probably claim that insulin isn't in itself a "drug" so would still fit within his parameters?

I don't think Paleo Canteen provide transcripts unfortunately (although having volunteered to transcribe a podcast in the past I can understand why as it takes hours).
 
I think he's just missing the word 'unnecessary ie giving up unnecessary drugs. He's anti treating symptoms and not finding and curing the cause. He describes current UK NHS as spending 99% of budget on chasing the escaped horse and only 1 % on a good lock to prevent it escaping in the first place.

This is a link to the bio on his private clinic so its a bit salesy but it seems he's on the right side, of type 2 anyway
