"Which" magazine and "Nutritionists".

Post by bindeweede »

Lengthy article from Andy Lewis.
Most therapists over-simplified symptoms and failed to recognise important ‘red flag’ symptoms requiring proper medical attention. Their medical explanations, understanding of how the body works and their knowledge of vitamins and minerals was also poor. One therapist told Mark that weight had nothing to do with type 2 diabetes and another told Helen that alcohol is not a risk-factor for breast cancer.

ETA. Article seems to have gone, temporarily, I presume.
