My family doctor is a highly educated and intelligent woman. She isn't a licensed dietitian.
However she has lots of good information to offer about the newest facts regarding healthy eating.
Perhaps your own personal doctor can't offer you good information. But that doesn't mean the medical profession is devoid of proper information.
I consider having a low BMI and leading a drug-free life to be a gift from God.
I would never criticize anyone who takes drugs. I totally support people who take drugs to improve their life or rectify medical problems.
