If we agree, at least on some level, that maybe medical schools aren't keeping up with some of these emphases on looking at root causes and trying to figure out what's behind things rather than just diagnosing and prescribing. What do you think is driving the curriculum, and how should it change?
Well, the curriculum is unfortunately driven by a lot of vested interests that generate revenue from the sale of pharmaceuticals, like insulin or metformin, drugs used to treat diabetes. There are also vested interests in companies that benefit from the sale of certain food products, like junk food, and carbohydrate-rich foods, and unhealthy seed oils. These influence the educational program through various quasi-scientific organizations that contribute to the curriculum.
