Publisher's summary

What foods to put on your table, so you don’t end up on mine.

Most diet books teach you to set short-term weight loss goals. Whether low-carb or low-fat, the typical plan goes like this: restrict your food choices, exercise until exhaustion, and swallow stacks of supplements. These “solutions” do a better job of lightening your wallet than lightening you.

Meanwhile, the healthcare industry fails to prevent chronic disease. Rather than showing people how to remain healthy and prevent illness through proper nutrition, the system offers drugs and surgery to manage symptoms.

As a heart surgeon who used to be morbidly obese, Dr. Philip Ovadia has seen firsthand the failures of mainstream diets and medicine. He realized that what helped him lose over 100 pounds was the same solution that could have prevented most of the thousands of open heart surgeries he has performed - metabolic health.

What you eat determines how long and how well you live. Yet most doctors don’t learn that in medical school. And pharmaceutical companies and food manufacturers have a vested interest in the public not knowing how to live and eat metabolically healthy.

In Stay Off My Operating Table, Dr. Ovadia shares the complete metabolic health system to prevent disease and optimize your health, a system that the diet and drug industries don’t want you to know about. Unlike quick-fix, “seven-day”, radical diets, Dr. Ovadia’s approach is a sustainable, long-term solution that works. Whether you’ve suffered from chronic diseases or want to prevent them decades from now, Stay Off My Operating Table will help you take back control of your health from the institutions and experts that have failed you.

Seed Oil Rebellion

Great book to start your seed oil rebellion journey! Save yourself! Stay off the docs operating table.

Wealth of Information

Dr. Ovadia presents an unbiased approach to improving your metabolic health through the diet that best fits your lifestyle.

A MUST read!!

The information provided is so important to our survival!! I highly recommend everyone to listen. This book doesn’t disappoint!!

Very good information

I stayed interested enough to listen to the book while watching football. The fact that the author shared his own journey with being unhealthy as a healthcare provider, gave me a sense of comfort in knowing this person is coming from a good and trustworthy place. He covered quite a bit of information from a professional and patient's perspective. Diving into the root cause of why we become afflicted with some of the diseases and conditions that plague society was a huge plus! Lots of resourceful information as it relates to our diet and metabolic health. I highly recommend this book.

Good broad stroke information, but ended as a commercial for his business.

I found this book to touch on a broad low carb concepts that can help many improve their health. Carnivore biased and lots of self promotion. Not a book for those with a lot of knowledge on the subject matter.

Excellent recommendations

The only issue is that he constantly reminds the listener of his credentials. The book could be made 10% shorter if he only did this once. Otherwise, fantastic.

This book is a life saver

I was worried befor reading this book. I had already started the carnavor diet, after trying and failing at the usual recommended diets off and on for years, to help with type2 diabetes and high blood pressure. t wanted to continue learning to make sure it was safe. this book does a great job of explaining how to figure a diet that works for you and why the standard stuff dosnt work. it's a fast read gives you details but is easy to understand.

Very informative

This book should be read by anyone that’s concerned about their health. It packed with a wealth of information and how to reverse bad habits and live a much more productive life. Highly recommend.

Good, useful info

Dr. Ovadia’s advice dovetails nicely with what I have learned from other keto and carni docs. Good, practical tips boiled down for immediate action. My only quibble with the audiobook is the robotic, sing-song style of Dr. Obadiah. He seems like a compassionate and caring man, but his monotonous, repetitive tone makes him sound like a disengaged and disinterested reader.

Truly informative

Great information that provides real and actionable information. Interesting confirmation of the reality that there is much disinformation out there on overall and cardiovascular health. This book provides clear, concise information in understandable terms on how you can take charge of your metabolic health. Great “read.”
