Dietary advice that’s killing us
1)Red meat is bad
2)Eggs are bad
3)Low salt for all
4)Sugar is fine
5)Vegetable oils are healthy
6)Whole grains are healthy
7)High carb diets are good for us

[Michael Eades, M.D.🏹 @DrEades]

In my 35+ years of taking care of patients and preaching the virtues of a low-carb diet, I've come to the conclusion that the single best thing you can do for your health is to spend more time in your own kitchen.

What as a community are we doing in our clinical #mskus practice...🤔

Do you use a probe cover to perform your ultrasound guided injections?

Yesterday I visited him in prison. He is in a dark place. Under circumstances inconsistent with a liberal state's treatment of human beings. But I also met a man who confirms daily Kant's, Ghandi's, Mandela's point: they can chain a man, break his body but never imprison his mind

Get real. @bigfatsurprise proves in book that there's no decent scientific evidence (other than heavily-mined nutritional epidemiological studies which we now know are "nonsense" according to Prof John Ioannidis MD) to support exclusive prescription of lo fat diets. You disagree?

A patient to me today:
"I wanted to let you know that your diagnosis was wrong.
You seem like the kind of doctor who would want to know."

well done to @DrJohnOrchard for leading this comprehensive narrative review on US-guided injections in tendinopathies. It's well worth a read if you manage tendon patients and I'm sure it will stimulate much debate.

These are my take home messages:

Amazing two days on our #mskus cadaveric guided injection course - great to teach such a skilled group - delegates from all over the world - 90% practical on the cadavers - practice makes perfect (with expert tutors to help!)

The debate used to be whether low-carb diets were deadly. Now it's whether low-fat diets are as good as low carb (at least, when both are restricted in sugar and high GI grains). That's progress. https://t.co/LZfpQjbn1s
