Re: Full Monty Nutrition

Conceptually missing the target, that is functional therapeutics, is nutrition seen from the outside-in..are they too fat or thin? It's way past time that physicians, patients and the entire healthcare process confront issues of fundamental physiology and biology, consequences of often endless nutritional mismanagement and illiteracy, and surrender the dubious priviledges of commonly mindless denial represented in treatments and therapy which merely drugs or pastes over meaningful symptomolgy. Real healthcare requires a 'full monty' nutritional basis of care and apperception.
