Why Your Body Warns You Years Before Diagnosis | Dr. Sadia | Superhuman Podcast

Описание: UK-trained GP and Women's Health Specialist Dr. Sadia joins Become a Superhuman to break down why modern healthcare is winning the battle against disease but losing the war on actual health — and what that means for you.

In this episode, we cover:
✅ Why 90% of suffering exists in the gap between "treating disease" and "creating health"
✅ The bio-psycho-social model — why stress, sleep, and lifestyle affect your biology more than you think
✅ A personal story on how opioids and steroids triggered anxiety during disc bulge recovery
✅ Menopause myths, symptoms, and why it's a phase of life — not an illness
✅ PCOS reversal — what's actually possible with the right approach
✅ Fatty liver in lean, healthy people — what your bloodwork isn't telling you
✅ The dangers of self-medicating with Xanax/Alp and how tolerance builds silently
✅ Antibiotic resistance — how casual self-prescribing is quietly making medicine less effective
✅ A real health-screening timeline by age (20s, 30s, 40s) you should actually be following

If you've ever wondered why you feel "fine" on paper but not fine in real life, this episode is for you.
