That @bmj_latest comic column. Quinoa and kale salad - deficient in sooo many nutrients Psychologists - aren't qualified to assess nutritional health. Ditto stent-placing cardiologists Reduced kcal bought from hospital shops? ≠ reduced personal calorie intake #JustSaying

@MattHancock The debate about statins in primary prevention is alive and kicking.

Cleared of all charges! @AHPRA notified me yesterday of their overturning of determination that #sugar & #LCHF advice to my patients was dangerous. Formal apology included. Opens door for all HCP's to offer this as 'safe' options. 🙏 all for your support. isupportgary.com/articles/ah…
