ABOUT DR. BREWER
Dr. Brewer started as an Emergency Doctor.  After seeing too many preventable heart attacks, he went to Johns Hopkins to learn Preventive Medicine.  While there, he went on the run the post-graduate training program (residency) in Preventive Medicine.  From there, he made a career of practicing and managing preventive medicine and primary care clinics.  His later role in this area was Chief Medical Officer for Premise, which has close to 1,000 primary care/prevention clinics.  He was also the Chief Medical Officer for MDLIVE, the second largest telemedicine company. More recently, he founded PrevMed, a heart attack, and stroke prevention clinic.

At PrevMed, we focus on heart attack, stroke, and cognitive decline.  We serve patients who have already experienced an event as well as those who have not developed a diagnosis or event.  Dr. Brewer provides services via telemedicine or in person if you're in the Lexington, KY area.  We find a lot of undiagnosed Pre-Diabetes or Insulin Resistance.  Treating unrecognized risk factors like Pre-Diabetes allows reduction of risk and prevention of disease.

Many of us have heard of overweight tri-athletes. And most of us are not exactly where we want to be with our diet or our weight. In fact, weight and BMI can get confused with muscle vs fat content. This is called the Schwarzeneger effect. And malnutrition can occur with multiple stages of life (elderly, infants, and young people with unhealthy methods of weight loss). 
But what about the majority, who struggle with being overweight and keeping a healthy diet? Does exercise overcome the damage of poor diet and obesity? 
This video will examine the science.
