Nutrition 101: physicians can no longer ignore the healing power of diet and nutritional supplements.

摘要

After graduating from high school, I spent the next 15 years of my life enrolled in educational programs designed to provide me with the knowledge base and skill set necessary to become a physician certified to diagnose and treat cardiovascular (CV) diseases. Embarrassingly, over that decade and a half I learned virtually nothing about the role of diet in treating and preventing disease. Indeed, the average physician is relatively ignorant about nutrition's role in human health unless he or she has taken a personal interest in the topic.
