Very Little.
The dearth of nutritional education required to get M.D. after one’s name is shameful. The industry has become sick care, not health care, and as I’ve found from personal experience, it takes a patient doing their own digging and being willing to defy conventional wisdom and arrogant doctors who behave as though their words should never be questioned.
I took the opinions of my dieticians and nutritionists over the doctors.
I am so often astonished by how little the subject of nutrition arises when I see my doctor (who is otherwise a wonderful doctor) for my annual checkup.
In my country Switzerland they know 0.01%
Not much.
Irony is that Doctors do not respect nutritionist and Dietitian. In india, people think that Dietitians are just better cooks.
My family doctor told me that he had never taken a single nutritional class. Not one class in medical school.
In my residency, pharmaceutical companies would provide lunch during our grand rounds. When they brought pizza and soda to a cardiology presentation, I remember the cardiologist lambasting the choice of unhealthy food, that it was undermining good health.. this was back in the 90s. Nothing has changed!
And whatever became of the lambaster?
Why would they teach them for that would deprive them their living
They might not know anything about nutrition, but they sure can disagree with each other ,about nutrition.
It’s the same with herbal medicines (lumped into the generic “supplements”). Everything says to talk to your doctor, but which doctor is up to date on current research on all the plants out there, aware of contraindications, uses, side effects, and product quality issues? Most won’t even ask if you take any, how much, why, what brand/type, or consider it when treating you. Some doctors have this knowledge because they have a special interest, but that doesn’t help the average patient who is told to consult the average doctor with nutrition and plant medicine concerns. I don’t exactly know what the solution is though, since doctors are already spread thin just practicing standard pharmaceutical-surgery-based medicine.
Definitely less than me.
Kind regards, Dr. Patrick Star
The Dunning-Kruger effect describes the concept of “the less you know, the less you are aware of your own ignorance”. What a shock that doctors are susceptible to this…🙄
Not diet is the number 1 killer but the companies putting all that stuff out there with their ads and propaganda
If I followed my doctors orders, I would still be taking medication for pre-diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, rheumatoid arthritis and allergies. Instead, I followed recommendations from doctors like Dr Gregor and Dr McDougall. For years now I have been completely healthy and drug free. The reaction I got from my doctors was always somewhere between annoyance (for not following their instructions) and total lack of curiosity about how I improved my health.
It is just crazy that Doctors do not get nutrition training in Medical schools.
Every doctor visit should include some nutrition discussion. The majority of the population is over weight or obese leading to high blood pressure, heart disease and cancer. Schools and hospital cafeterias should be leading the way to good health by setting the example of what is a healthy meal and teaching people what to eat and why.. Every person in the hospital for heart disease should have a nutrition class before being checked out from the hospital with follow up education and training in nutrition. Medicare and Medicaid should require patient nutrition education as part of their standard of care. Nutrition information should be run on the hospital TV channel. Prevention needs to be emphasized to every patient. After the fact pills and surgery don’t deal with the ROOT CAUSE.
Hospitals, doctors offices and schools should be places where good nutrition is taught and provided not places that contribute to disease and obesity. It is crazy the hospitals are feeding people the very food that caused the heart disease, high blood pressure or cancer that they are treating. Every person in the hospital should receive some nutrition education before being released. Every doctor visit should be an opportunity to educate patients about how food choices impacts their health outcomes. The fact that doctors do not get nutrition training as part of their training makes no sense. Medicare and Medicaid should require nutrition education as part of patient care. Focus should be on food choices. Fasting should be investigated as a treatment for disease.
