BBC - UK Medical students say they currently learn almost nothing about the way diet and lifestyle affect health - and they should be taught more

We could have told them that. The money they spent to find that out could have been spent on bacon

Not really surprised. They focus on treating the problem and not the cause more often than not.

Filling their heads with a bunch of useless knowledge about how to treat the problems rather than how to prevent the problems?

The only way to prevent anything is to ask ourselves, where is my food coming from? What’s in it? How is it killing from womb to tomb?

Doctors coming to the rescue to treat the result not the cause?

Mild classifications of toxic and dangerous substances or combinations thereof?

I do hope this signals a shift in perspective, away from pills to treat symptoms and towards long-term changes to actually fix the problems.
