And please do continue to play the “I’m a doctor so I’m smarter than you” card. That sort of arrogance does well for your credibility. Just because I’m a nurse, I can still read. Besides, there are lots of physicians and nurses who agree with me.

I'm old enough to remember when back in the 60's it was standard medical practice to prescribe amphetamines for weight loss. There was certainly a lot of bad side-effects from that practice including drug addition.

This was also the very same time where the same professionals considered sugar to be just as good as any other food. "A calorie is a calorie". Turns out a sugar company lobby funded a Harvard study which pitched the idea of sugar is good and fat is bad. The study was little more than a combination of a bribe and PR wrapped up in an illusion of scientific study, but it became medical gospel for decades.

The value paid for service rendered is one of the absolute worst.
