Brice - see you are an MD. Did you have to take any courses in natural medicine in college. Most doctors hate to talk diet, health etc. And most have no training in it or are unwilling. Bad for business - half the crook doctors would be gone if we addressed this more. The fact is the for-profit healthcare business love sick people. If the population is healthy that does not fill hospital beds. At least the HMOs came along and changed that a bit, but not saying those crooks of healthcare are any better. If the US healthcare industry addressed diet, excerise instead of being the reactive system (that being fixing the problem after it has occured) we would all be better off. The fact remains - this is not good for business. For the big, powerful pharmas, the hospitals, the doctors and on down the chain. West
