The Doctor's (and Your Dilemma).

[MikePollard]

So, a few weeks ago I became an ambassador for the Public Health Collaboration (PHC) and shortly afterwards presented an LCHF info pack to my GP. What response did I get back? Not even an acknowledgement despite me pointing to the success of Dr David Unwin and the monetary advantage for his practice and the NHS.

So, in the light of unequivocal, scientific evidence that LCHF reverses diabetes and could be the saviour of the NHS instead of bankrupting it, why is this the case?

Well, if you watch this video, this will give the reasons, multifaceted as they are.

You have been presented with this dilemma and when you enter the surgery with a problem and perhaps you hope a prescription is the answer. Well not for me - I go in fully informed and I know that as often as not, the pills being described will do me very little good unless the underlying problem is identified.

Have a look at this list and tell me my distrust of, what, statins is misplaced. Statins may have a place for some, but measured against a lifestyle change...?

Mike - great presentation. In this discussion, it is worth reading Belinda Fettke’s summary of her investigation on what/who was behind the attack on her husband Gary – it illustrates just how modern dietary advice developed and the control over dietician training, hospitals, medical schools etc: "Lifestyle Medicine – where did all the meat go?" - isupportgary.com/articles/t.... I should have added that the Ivor Cummings podcast message a couple of days ago by TheAwfulToad - is Gary and Belinda relating that story.

The guy in this video was wonderful.....both funny and inspirational. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for posting it Mike. I remember trying to tell my diabetic family members to ditch the low fat sugar laden junk they always bought and switch to LCHF foods. Maybe I just didn't tell them enough? But I was always met with blank stares each time and I just gave up in the end. I suspect it will take a very long time for the message to get through to the general population, especially to people of my parents generation who accept the low fat high carb message without question and turn to prescriptions rather than dietary changes to deal with all the illnesses they inevitably come down with. And especially as long as there are still low fat food items on the supermarket shelves....?
