I had conventional medical training, attending Arizona College of Osteopathic Medicine, doing my traditional osteopathic internship in Cleveland, Ohio, and an internal medicine residency at UT Knoxville. At the end of residency, I entered the United States Air Force as an internist and then a flight surgeon. During that time, I had the audacity to tell my diabetic patients not to eat “too much” fruit out of fear their blood sugars would increase. Thankfully none ever asked how much “too much” was, as I had no idea but was simply parroting what I'd been taught! A very apt portrayal of modern medicine is that physicians only learn about the paper towels Big Pharma is willing to sell, while everyone ignores the fact that the faucet remains on. We physicians realize that the root cause of disease is not a paucity of medications, however very few of us are trained on how to address medical issues with anything other than prescription medications or surgery.
