The Berman Method Podcast

Episode 181: Protein Supplements and PRP Injections

Dr. Jake and PA-C Jenni Berman take on the corporate medical system that values profit over patient outcomes in this eye-opening episode. They boldly state that pharmaceutical companies and insurance providers often prioritize “client retention over curation” — a disturbing reality when you realize “if we cure a patient, that’s a customer lost.”

Through personal stories about their three children’s health challenges, the Bermans demonstrate how even medical professionals can find themselves giving their eight-week-old multiple medications before recognizing the cascade of problems this creates. Walker’s reflux medication led to severe constipation, while their daughter Vera’s painful constipation resolved simply with proper hydration rather than the recommended daily Miralax. These experiences perfectly illustrate their philosophy: treat the problem, not the symptom.

The episode also tackles common questions about protein powder versus collagen supplements and the truth about PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatments. While collagen offers tremendous benefits for hair, skin, joints, and more, it shouldn’t constitute more than 20% of your daily protein intake. And despite the popularity and high cost of PRP injections for joint problems, the Bermans explain why they rarely work without addressing the underlying biomechanical issues — with one remarkable exception that’s producing “night and day” results for knee replacement patients.

If you’re tired of band-aid solutions that create more problems than they solve, subscribe to the Berman Method podcast. Visit bermanpt.com or bermanpt.com/wellness for more information and free resources to begin your journey toward true healing rather than symptom management.
