Dr. Casey Means: "Stanford got a $3 million grant from Pfizer while I was there to revamp the curriculum and the fact that the American Diabetes Association that makes clinical guidelines is getting millions of dollars from Coke and Cadbury and the American Diabetes Association is getting millions of dollars from Mead Johnson that makes formula and Abbott Nutrition that makes formula and vaccine companies that make flu vaccines.

8,000 major conflicts of interest were just reported at the NIH with food and pharma. So at every level, the medical guidelines that if you step out of, you are at risk for litigation as a doctor, and the NIH, you know, oh, like, you know, this thing that we all respect, tons of conflicts of interest, and the medical schools accepting money, the tribe that then you become a part of as a trainee is a tribe that only hears one thing.

And so I have a lot of compassion for doctors because I was, I did go through medical school and not learn any of the things that I had to learn after to actually figure out how to help myself and others truly generate foundational cellular health to be healthy. Like I just look back at what I've had to learn since medical school. You know, I learned about basically organ-specific physiology, pharmacology and then in residency I learned how to do surgery and then of course throughout the whole thing I learned how to bill

But that that is ultimately those are not the tools that actually generate foundational cellular health, you know 80% of medical schools in the United States don't require a single nutrition course Not one minute of nutrition and yet 90% of our health care costs are Tied to diseases the things that are torturing American lives are tied to food and doctors. It's not a hammer in our toolbox."
