I’m sorry, but I disagree with this decision. We seem to operate under the assumption that physicians are responsible for fixing every aspect of society, which is unrealistic.
First, we already have trained professionals in nutrition—dietitians. Yet we consistently underpay them and fail to provide adequate access to their services. While physicians receiving 40 hours of nutrition education isn’t inherently a bad idea, delivering the behavioral interventions required to meaningfully change diet often takes hours of patient engagement. In the current system, many physicians are fortunate if they can spend 5–10 minutes with a patient a few times per year.
The problem is not that people are unaware they should eat more fruits and vegetables. The larger issue is that the food system itself heavily subsidizes and incentivizes highly processed foods. Structural changes to that system would likely have a far greater impact than physicians repeatedly telling patients to eat more fruits and vegetables.
At some point, we need to acknowledge the limits of what can realistically be addressed within a brief clinical encounter. It’s all so exhausting.
Almost everything RFK Jr says here is wrong.
Reyes’s Syndrome is related to aspirin use particularly after a viral illness, but in children, not in pregnant women.
High dose aspirin isn’t recommended during pregnancy because it can cause premature closure of the ductus arteriosis. Low dose aspirin can be used during pregnancy.
Ibuprofen is not used during pregnancy because of concerns about harming the fetal kidneys.
Acetaminophen is considered safe for use during pregnancy.
As always, when you have medical questions, talk to your doctor. The Sec of HHS is not a reliable source of medical information.
Hes being used where the teams needs are. Is there not a value in the ability of the team being able to plug him on either side of the ball, and he still offer depth for the other? Had Newsome turned out to be a stud and Meyers disappointed we’d probably be on the opposite side.
Broke the NFL record. 2nd-longest FG ever. Hit one from 70 yards in preseason.
Only player in NFL history with multiple 65+ yard FGs. And did it twice THIS season.
Not 1st team All Pro. Not 2nd team. Not even a Pro Bowler.
The disrespect continues.
It’s only about us.
Guys...
If it comes down to ND or Miami.
It quite literally has to be Miami, if it's not the committee is flat out wrong.
I hope both teams make it but you have to take head to head into account.
Or else college football is cooked.
Okay so now we have one quality common opponent between ND and Miami in Pitt. Miami was better in worse conditions vs Pitt actually trying to win the game.
But this is stupid. Because instead of that we could just use the actual game when they played each other
Miami > ND
America got the full Trevor Lawrence experience last night. Couple of drops, bad luck INT, a couple of 0 IQ plays, and a handful of absolute piss missiles. It can be quite the ride
