Read UnCurable to explore a deeper perspective on how health is understood and where medicine can sometimes miss the mark. What if some of what we believe about health today… will one day be seen as completely wrong? In this minisode of Made for Health, Dr. Aaron Hartman introduces a powerful concept: how medicine can sometimes miss the mark through blind spots, misinterpretation, and systemic gaps in understanding. He walks through real historical and modern examples to illustrate how medical thinking evolves, from early misconceptions around infection control to more recent challenges in understanding conditions like chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. The episode also highlights how differences in physiology, especially in women, have sometimes led to missed or delayed diagnoses. This conversation invites listeners to approach health with curiosity and awareness, recognizing that medicine is always evolving and that asking deeper questions can play an important role in better outcomes.
