Nobody had ever told me junk food was bad for me. Four years of medical school, and four years of internship and residency, and I never thought anything was wrong with eating sweet rolls and doughnuts, and potatoes, and bread, and sweets.Collection: Medical

Don't fix what's not broken.
I was gaining weight very rapidly and read about the idea of restricting carbohydrates as an alternative to going hungry. I had a big appetite, so that was the only thing I would even consider.
Carbohydrate is the bad guy. You have to see that.
My patient population has a low recidivism rate, but if they haven't made up their minds that it is permanent, then of course, they will fail.
It's so logical and so simple. Fat is the backup fuel system. The role it plays in the body is that when there's no carbohydrate around, fat will become the primary energy fuel. That's pretty well known.
If you believe that weight loss requires self-deprivation, I'm going to teach you otherwise.
A controlled carbohydrate lifestyle really prevents risk factors for heart disease.
I think that if a person wants to remain vegetarian, they're just going to have to go hungry.
There are many, many people who have lost 100 pounds and kept it off.
The people in power have created an obesity epidemic.
I don't like when people try to put a spin and have a second agenda to make a person look bad.
I think I can wipe out diabetes.
I eat more vegetables than the average vegetarian.
Food compulsion isn't a character disorder; it's a chemical disorder.
I didn't realise I was going to be fighting the whole world.
I want the public to know the truth, not every condition affecting the heart comes from a blockage.
Well, I would never do a study because I'm a practicing physician. I mean, all I do is treat people.
What is the explanation for the blind eye that has been turned on the flood of medical reports on the causative role of carbohydrates in overweight, ever since the publication in 1864 of William Banting's famous "Letter on Corpulence"? Could it be related, in part, to the vast financial endowments poured into the various departments of nutritional education by the manufacturers of our refined carbohydrate foodstuff?Collection: Eye
There is not one, but many cures for cancer available. But they are all systematically suppressed by the ACS, the NCI, and the major oncology centres. They have too much of an interest in the status quo.Collection: Cancer

There is no better example of the weakness of our dominant medicine than its clearly ineffective War On Cancer. By the same token, there is no better example of the superiority of complementary, alternative medicine than its management of this dread disease. We are equally concerned about whether mainstream medicine's demand for proof works to maintain it at its current level of ineptitude.Collection: War
