TRUTH THAT LASTS
I contend that the Medical/health care industry is a network of various for-profit businesses that treat and provide care to individuals who need it. The fiduciary responsibility is to make profits though. So unless prescribing a healthful diet makes more money for the industry than aspirin and stents, we probably won't be hearing about it too often from our providers, minus the handful of doctors and physicians who actually do.
It's nice to see a doc that is pretty high up on the medical food chain questioning the legitimacy and the transparency of the research and data currently utilized in the field of coronary health.

Nice post! It is great to bring awareness to people NOT to listen to the media blindly. There are only 10% of research projects get published and half of them through politics. Just make sure you read and trust the good 5%
ReplyDeleteOf those 5%, I'd say 90% of that is observational correlary studies that don't prove anything. The numbers keep dwindling if you keep narrowing the fractals of papers down to the one study that actually suggests something valid.
DeleteThanks! for the powerful information
