I agree. I changed doctors to one who is supportive of low carb, and that has helped.

They just aren't trained in nutrition and supplements. They are trained to prescribe medication and spew out what the AMA says. Part of that though has to be fear of malpractice anytime they go outside of the AMA standards.

Also - pharmaceutical companies control so much of what goes on. Have you ever noticed that it seems everytime you go to the doctors there is a pharmaceutical salesman there? They control much of the AMA and medical schools. It's all about $$$.

Bottom line: Do your own research, take control of your own health.
