how to use nutrition and nutritional supplements effectively – (05-05-03)
Nutrition proficiency positively correlated w/ perceived quality of nutrition training of family physicians.
Learning how to use nutrition and nutritional supplements effectively is something that really does require constant education. The nutritional background I had after leaving chiropractic school was merely a springboard for what I’ve learned since graduating. If physicians are not even getting the basics to start with, it does not give these physicians the tools they need to work effectively with natural medicine. This is one of the strongest reasons why supplements should not become prescription items–the only physicians who would be able to prescribe them would be the ones with the least training in their use.
