15: Dr. Donald Miller on Medicine and Diet




The Carbohydrates Can Kill Podcast Feed show

Summary: Donald Miller, M.D. is my featured guest in this enlightening episode of the Carbohydrates Can Kill Podcast with Robert Su, MD. Welcome back! Physicians are supposed to be the people who believe and follow only the truth like scientists do. They should master what they have learned in both the basic and clinical science and know how parts and functions of the body is connected to each other with rationale. Unfortunately, we have witnessed many physicians today simply follow in the footsteps of organized medicine and the nose of pharmaceutical companies. They have lost the ability of judging the rationale of each piece of medical information. They just memorize the information and follow the standard of care, even when that has cost the patients’ health and lives. Dr. Miller, a cardiac surgeon and Professor of Surgery at the University of Washington School of Medicine, found that the postoperative dietary advice for his patients was terribly irrational with the high carbohydrate and low fat diet. To improve his patients’ postoperative outcome, he has adopted a low carbohydrate, high fat diet in his dietary advice. We need more good physicians like Dr. Miller who tells us what the real science is. Do not miss out this great interview with Dr. Donald Miller.
