What’s your favorite type of food?
The food I cook for myself and friends!
What are your aspirations in life?
To reform the health care system, changing it from a ruinously expensive (and disastrously ineffective) post-hoc pharmaceutical model to a genuinely preventative, nutritionally-based model. In other words, to move Pasteurian medicine to one side, leaving it to sit at the right hand of Bernardian medicine.
What’s one thing you’ve learned since you started your career?
The more I learn, the more I realize how much I do not know.
What’s one piece of advice you can share with others?
Never think that you have reached a peak of understanding. Once at the summit, there always higher peaks further ahead. Don’t be discouraged because the joy is genuinely in the journey.
