In Episode 613 of ?The Livin? La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore,? it?s good to share my very first interview with a plastic surgeon and a fellow low-carb health blogger/podcaster named Dr. Andrei Ostric (aka Dr. O). Everyday it seems we are seeing yet another medical professional discover the life-changing benefits of healthy low-carb living. From cardiologists to general practitioners, the wave of support for carbohydrate-restriction is getting stronger and stronger as the years go by. But have you ever heart of a plastic surgeon embracing low-carb for his patients? That?s what you get in Dr. O from the Chicago, IL-based ?Midwest PRS: Hand & Plastic Surgery.?

Listen in today and you?ll hear from this man who has been blogging for about a year and recently decided to try his hand at podcasting with his fabulous new iTunes podcast called ?The Dr. O Show? (featuring the same amazing producer behind all of Jimmy?s podcasts, the great Kevin Kennedy-Spaien). Dr. O and I had a fabulous discussion about how he came to the low-carb lifestyle, why he believes it fits in perfectly with his career as a plastic surgeon, how his connection with local Chicago radio personality Geoff Pinkus on ?The Man Diet? is changing lives and so much more. What a fun interview that I know you will love hearing today! ENJOY!

Listen to Dr. O share why he believes so strongly in low-carb:

He always wanted to be a doctor loving science and biology

He started medical school with no idea what specialty

The opportunity he had to rotate with a plastic surgeon

It was ?so creative, meaningful and artistic? to him

One of his daughters was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes

This was ?a really tough time? in his life dealing with it

His middle daughter also developed diabetes

All the stress of this caused him to gain weight himself

He became a student of health again learning about this

It came down to what foods wouldn?t raise blood sugar

Grains, sugar and processed foods were the big culprits

He made the connection to carbohydrate-based foods

The move he made to ?foods you could recognize?

The influence of FAT HEAD by Tom Naughton on him

People have ?the wrong notion about fat? in their diet

Realizing fat is good was ?like a door opening to me?

Fat and animal products dropped him from 240 to under 200

This podcast was ?a huge, huge influence? on his health

He wanted to start sharing low-carb with his patients

His desire to open a health and wellness center soon

At 6?4?, he didn?t ?look fat? but was metabolically sick

He used a glucometer to see where his blood sugar is

Low-carb is more a blood sugar/insulin control diet

Doctors don?t have a ?Nutrition 101? course in school

Your metabolism will improve on a low-carb diet

Some people can have starches, but others cannot

What?s your body doing with the food you are eating

Check your lipids, vital signs, sleep, energy, etc.

He found Tom?s movie while browsing Netflix

The slices of bologna Tom had in his mouth on the cover

Dr. O never saw Supersize Me before FAT HEAD

He finally did see Spurlock?s film, but Tom did better

It?s really good to inject a little humor in communications

He?s tried to develop a ?little bit of humor? more

Dr. Eric Westman?s 2012 ?Low-Carb Cruise? lecture

Community, humor and friendliness are key ways to ?connect?

He?s trying connect with guys who ?have no place to go?

Wheat Belly was an important book for his family

They ate well with third daughter to avoid Type 1 diabetes

It?s a ?struggle? dealing with his daughters? diabetes

There?s no family history of Type 1 diabetes on either side

He honestly doesn?t know how they got Type 1 diabetes

There is ?a psychological burden? for Type 1 diabetes

You have to deal with it but there?s ?way too much junk?

He tries to get ?creative? with creating fun recipes

His daughter wants to start a business for diabetic kids

His girls ?know their math well? from counting carbs

How the shift to low-carb wasn?t that hard for his girls

His wife has ?become the most amazing chef? for good meals

Why he believes low-carb is an extension of plastic surgery

Patients come to him looking for cosmetic surgery stuff

They want to improve skin or looks, he promotes low-carb

Plastic surgery doesn?t help you lose weight

Body contouring like tummy tuck or liposuction?

They are only temporary without permanent changes made

He doesn?t go forward with procedures before nutrition

Patients lose weight and then ?feel great? about themselves

How he is ?empowering? his patients with great information

Challenge for physicians is to avoid being a ?technician?

He?s starting a new field of ?preventative plastic surgery?

The interaction and relationship with his patients

This has allowed him to ?refocus? and get more patients

The trust and credibility is ?satisfying? to help others

Growing move to preventative medicine for physicians

?The Man Diet? he is a part of with Geoff Pinkus

Geoff?s ?Living Large? radio show in the Chicago area

He gained a lot of weight but then began losing weight

When he started sharing it on Facebook, Dr. O responded

There was a lot of back and forth exchanges on this

Many guys were chiming in on this subject

Geoff was ?frustrated? doing this on his own

He contacted Dr. O to join him in a community effort

Geoff had cut out sugar, starch without doing low-carb

They decided to start a ?Man Diet? Boot Camp

Why he decided to create a podcast (because ?it?s fun!?)

He was in high school/college radio and loved it

You can develop a lot of ideas in this medium, unlike TV

He?s seeking to ?pay it forward? to others about low-carb

PODCAST THIS WEEK: Coming up in Episode 27 of ?Ask The Low-Carb Experts? on Thursday, September 20, 2012 at 7PM ET, we shift gears a bit from our typical topics on this podcast when we welcome a very popular blood sugar control advocate and outspoken health blogger Jenny Ruhl to the show. She appeared in Episode 582 of ?The Livin? La Vida Low-Carb Show? podcast and raised some eyebrows with her frank messages about certain issues that happen to people when they go on a carbohydrate-restricted diet as outlined in her book Diet 101: The Truth About Low Carb Diets.
