But the second thing is you couldn't be more wrong. If you would go back and read my post, the first words are, "part of the problem may be that doctors are overutilized....." Of course there would still be disease and a need for doctors. Notice I said, "If everyone lived a truly healthy lifestyle, doctor usage could be cut in half and there wouldn't be any doctor shortage." That, by the way, was my educated opinion.

In order to start a good conversation and an exchange of ideas, we need to first practice good reading comprehension. Second, don't characterize me as eating a perfect or holy diet if you don't know that to be the case.
I apologize and have removed those adjectives.

It would be useful for you to not compare today's population to that of the Paleolithic era. People are living much longer now, and Baby boomers turning 65 and retiring at a rate of 10,000 per day are factors contributing largely to the oncoming primary doctor shortage.
