Greetings, Then answer the question: how many people do you know that don't take drugs, daily?
I have been in the US for 13 years and have yet to find a doctor that knows anything about diet. And no, not just rural doctors. If the doctors are so great, then why is our health care so bad? Sorry, but it is not horseshit, I talk to people constantly all over the US on the internet that have no idea how to get healthy, because their doctors don't know. I assume there are some that do bother to learn, but it is not part of the medical school teaching.
