The Medical Worlds Neglect of Nutrition Why Doctors Push Drugs #keto #carnivore #drericwestman
In the field of modern medicine, nutrition often takes a backseat to pharmacological treatments. This trend is not due to a lack of evidence for the power of dietary changes but rather because of how medical professionals are trained and how the healthcare system is structured.
The medical industry is predisposed to emphasize pharmaceuticals, often advocating for the use of a single molecule or drug treatment. The emphasis on medication can overshadow the potential benefits of dietary changes. For instance, a low-carb or keto diet is suggested to <strong>work almost as well</strong> as some drug therapies for certain conditions. These diets can provide viable alternatives, negating the need for medications that require injections or carry other costs.

- Do not involve the cost or procurement of medications.
- Can offer similar health benefits as drug therapies.
