From Johns Hopkins medical expert Dr. Marty Makary, the New York Times-bestselling author—an eye-opening look at the medical groupthink that has led to public harm, and what you need to know about your health. More Americans have peanut allergies today than at any point in history. Why? In 2000, the American Academy of Pediatrics issued a strict recommendation that parents avoid giving their children peanut products until they’re three years old. Getting the science perfectly backward, triggering intolerance with lack of early exposure, the US now leads the world in peanut allergies—and this misinformation is still rearing its head today. How could the experts have gotten it so wrong? Dr. Marty Makary asks, Could it be that many modern-day health crises have been caused by the hubris of the medical establishment? Experts said for decades that opioids were not addictive, igniting the opioid crisis. They refused menopausal women hormone replacement therapy, causing unnecessary suffering. They demonized natural fat in foods, driving Americans to processed carbohydrates as obesity rates soared. They told citizens that there are no downsides to antibiotics and prescribed them liberally, causing a drug-resistant bacteria crisis. When modern medicine issues recommendations based on good scientific studies, it shines. Conversely, when modern medicine is interpreted through the harsh lens of opinion and edict, it can mold beliefs that harm patients and stunt research for decades. In Blind Spots, Dr. Makary explores the latest research on critical topics ranging from the microbiome to childbirth to nutrition and longevity and more, revealing the biggest blind spots of modern medicine and tackling the most urgent yet unsung issues in our $4.5 trillion health care ecosystem. The path to medical mishaps can be absurd, entertaining, and jaw-dropping—but the truth is essential to our health.


从约翰霍普金斯医疗专家马特·麦考博士,以及《纽约时报》畅销书作者看来,这是一份令人震惊的报告,揭示了导致公众伤害的医疗群体思维,并阐述你需知的健康知识。如今,美国人比历史上任何时候都有更多的花生过敏症患者。这是为什么?2000年,美国儿科学会发布了一项严格建议:父母在孩子三岁以前应避免给孩子食用花生产品。他们完全搞错了科学研究,因缺乏早期接触导致了对花生的不耐受。美国现在在花生过敏上领先世界——而这仍然是一种误导现象依然存在。专家怎么会弄错如此之多?马特·麦考博士问道,是不是现代医疗体系的自大心态导致了许多当代健康危机的发生?专家们几十年来一直声称阿片类药物不会成瘾,从而引发了阿片类药物危机;他们拒绝为更年期女性提供荷尔蒙替代疗法,造成了不必要的痛苦;他们妖魔化了食物中的天然脂肪,促使美国人转向加工碳水化合物以应对飙升的肥胖率;他们告诉公民抗生素没有任何负面影响,并大剂量开具,最终导致了一种耐药性细菌危机。当现代医学依据好的科学研究提出建议时,它会非常耀眼。反之,当现代医学通过主观意见和命令的严厉镜片来解读时,它可以塑造有害患者信念,并在数十年中抑制科研进展。在《盲点》一书中,麦考博士马特探索了微生物组、分娩以及营养与长寿等领域最新的研究发现,并揭示了现代医学最大的盲点,同时也处理了我们4.5万亿美元的医疗保健生态系统中最紧迫但最被忽视的问题。治病事故的道路可以荒诞可笑,甚至令人捧腹大笑;但是真相对于我们健康来说是至关重要的。
