so I wanted to bring up a couple points

and just discuss what I think is the

reason why you’re frustrated going to

the doctor this morning I was digging

through all my files and I was cleaning

out stuff and I’m shooting stuff away

and I stumbled on some things I kept I

went to pre-med University of Wisconsin

Parkside and then I went to Chiropractic

College I’m not a medical doctor I

didn’t go to medical school

but we were taught a tremendous amount

of anatomy and physiology and

biochemistry so this morning I’m

cleaning out my files and I stumbled on

some some old little folders that I used

to keep and I used to sketch things out

in school because so I can visualize it

like this right here I was sketching out

all the cranial nerves like that’s a

work of art right I mean amazing the

stuff that we had to learn use the

cranial nerve number seven all the

different pathways all the different

structures here’s a cranial nerve number

nine glossopharyngeal and just the

detail that you had to know was just

crazy here’s another one right here

cranial nerve number five actually I was

a quite a quite a good artist there but

the depth of anatomy physiology that he

had to learn was quite crazy I mean

here’s the the interim posterior lobe of

the pituitary and all the different

hormones all the different functions all

the different pathways all the different

pathologies of different types of cancer

and here’s a little chart on class that

renal physiology or the study of the

kidney and all the different things that

you had to know quite extensive but what

really hit me this morning when I was

talking to my wife about this everything

is like classification all these

diseases are a classification or

labeling these conditions and diseases

and of course the anatomy physiology but

there’s very little practical

application and that means what do you

do with all this stuff so I pulled out a

medical pathology book just to kind of

show you a couple things and I pulled

out you know hyperkalemia that means a

hyper is high kolima is

so the condition of high potassium so

just here’s a just an example what I’m

talking about so you look at the basics

so it talks about how common this

condition is the risk factors genetics

and then we get etiology which is

basically the cause okay of high

potassium and it gives you all these

potential causes okay then you’re the

diagnosis and then you’re the treatment

which is the medication now here’s the

big problem that I see there is there’s

probably about I would say 40 different

causes but they don’t teach you the

connection between diet they don’t give

you the practical knowledge of what

you’re going to find when you actually

work with a patient they definitely do

not connect the food aspects of what

that patient is putting in their mouth

that could create this problem alright

here’s another one

hypokalemia that’s low potassium so they

talk about how common it is the risk

factors the most common causes it says

decrease intake a potassium well that’s

good that’s good

deficient diets being an alcoholic

elderly anorexia vomiting diarrhea okay

that’s cool

kidney problems and then they show you

how to diagnose it treatment medication

interesting okay let’s see what else

they have the prognosis all right here

we go the diet in patients with mild

hypokalemia that’s low potassium in the

blood not caused by bleeding or vomiting

dietary supplementation may be

sufficient okay potassium rich foods

includes oranges bananas cantaloupes

prunes raisins dried beans dried

apricots in squash well here’s the

problem do these they’re recommending

the fruits

what about leafy greens what about

Mikado what about beet tops what about

kale

what about pistachios these are all much

higher in potassium but it doesn’t

really tell you what kind of

supplementation because the body needs

like 4700 milligrams so the problem is

they’re recommending some foods that

have some potassium but not very very

high in fact one banana is 300

milligrams so you need 4700 you’d have

to have like I don’t know a lot of

bananas right to actually fulfill your

need so the big disconnect is practical

application how are we gonna use the

diet to fix this okay that’s really

what’s missing here’s here’s another one

cirrhosis of the liver okay so they have

a description you know it occurs in 40

and 50 year old people predominantly in

males 19th leading cause of death okay

that’s all interesting information risk

factors genetics etiology okay so this

is the cause chronic hepatitis alcohol

abuse hepatitis C okay so we have that

so the diagnosis physical exam treatment

first-line medication Wow okay so let’s

keep going here surgery oh they do have

complementary and alternative medicine

milk thistle that’s good ongoing care

they talk about diet a high protein diet

may cause more problems but protein

restriction is no longer recommended

coffee consumption has a graded and

inverse association with liver cancer so

again they’re not showing you the stuff

that’s really really really important

like the high levels of insulin in in

the blood from a high carbohydrate or a

fine carbohydrate diet causing cirrhosis

of the liver so they were omitting this

really key piece of the puzzle and they

don’t mention anything about high

fructose corn syrup so this is the

disconnect so when someone going through

Medical School has to learn all this

information okay tremendous amount

information

there’s not a lot of time to really

evaluate and figure this stuff out it’s

like let’s pass the test get through it

graduate then practice and try to figure

it out but you’re coming out of school

without the knowledge of the basic foods

the basic information and food the

correct information on what to eat okay

here’s another one

anxiety okay so they go into the risk

factors it says right here risk factors

Caucasian race wow if you’re clonk asian

you’re gonna you’re gonna have more

anxiety

let’s see family history genetics all

right etiology neurotransmitter problems

okay they have this a lot of associated

conditions again this is like they’re

not talking about the vital information

they’re talking about the trivial

information and just like data overload

on steroids okay then we get the

diagnosis okay so there is no blood test

you can do this is all subjective they

go into that asking questions physical

exam there’s you’re not gonna actually

look anything on the some type of

diagnostic test it’s all again just by

asking them questions all right

treatment all right first line is the

type of medication and they give you a

list of drugs second line is some

different medications okay and then

let’s see here additional therapies

cognitive therapy and then they have at

the last thing they have complimentary

alternative health

yoga meditation kava st. John’s wort

okay diet limit caffeine

avoid alcohol under differential

diagnosis they do have something pretty

cool this is nutritional thiamine Bao

thiamine deficiency this right here is

the most important thing you need to

know about anxiety it’s usually a

thiamine deficiency from a high

carbohydrate diet or high-stress diet

because as soon as you give the person

I mean and provide that is part of the

foods you actually can greatly reduce

anxiety and I don’t see anything about

the adrenals as well so you know high

cortisol levels stress things like that

I don’t see anything about sleeping so

you can see that this is the frustration

that you have because basically in

medical school the there’s a big

disconnect between what you put in your

mouth and how it affects all these

different diseases whether it’s cancer

anemia or neurological disorders the

most important thing a doctor should

learn and emphasize is the basic diet

all right guys well tell me what you

think about this and the comment down
