This is the way. Many doctors don't bother to question what they are taught, they're bombarded with so much information, exams and making presentations that they leave them not wanting to dig deeper or think critically. Also, you can rarely question the doctor giving the class, undermine his authority and you run the risk of a hard/terrible time. There's this strange ego thing among many of the educators and they seem to pass it onto the students.
You need a doctor/patient relationship, it cannot be a one-sided relationship, a lot of patients even known more about their diseases than a lot of docs, because they have a vested interest.

quoting nevent1q…qkj5I'm not a doctor, but I know how to analyze data, so here is my response to the cardiologist who wanted me to go on Statin
I printed out each study, and he didn't bother to look at them.
I do a complete blood panel plus with nine vials of blood drawn and over 36 different tests. Everything was perfect except for LDL.
My oxidatedLDLL was six from 1-20
His only response was, “Then why do Statins work?”
High cholesterol is bad advice based on faulty science from the 1950s; Ancel Keys cherry-picked data with his seven-country study.
Every cell membrane in your body requires cholesterol.
Animal fat is one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet.
Vitamin D is produced when cholesterol in the skin is exposed to UVB radiation from the sun.
Testosterone, DHEA-S, Estradiol, Progesterone, and Prolactin are all steroid hormones synthesized from cholesterol in various tissues in the body. Cholesterol is converted into pregnenolone, which is then used to make these hormones through a series of enzymatic reactions.
