What I Wish Someone Had Told Me In Medical School About Nutrition



Although trained to diagnose and treat classic diseases like diphtheria and typhoid fever, Dr. Michael Klaper has spent his long medical career â??cleaning up the wreckage of the Standard American Diet.â? In this entertaining lecture, the specific ways in which food can play a causative role in various diseases - as well as be used to help to cure them - are explored. Dr. Klaper shares this practical information with the health-aware public, medical students, physicians and other health professionals.

Michael A. Klaper, MD, is a 1972 graduate of the University of Illinois College of Medicine in Chicago, with post-graduate training in internal medicine, surgery, anesthesiology, and orthopedics at the University of British Columbia hospitals in Vancouver, and obstetrics at the University of California, San Francisco. 
Dr. Klaper has practiced acute care medicine in Hawaii, Canada, California, Florida and New Zealand. Far more fulfilling to him is his current practice, focusing on health-promoting food and lifestyle choices to help people stay out of hospitals and off operating tables. A long-time radio host and a pilot, Dr. Klaper has served as nutrition advisor to NASAâ??s programs for space colonists on the Moon and Mars.
To minimize suffering of all sentient beings, Dr. Klaper adopted a vegan diet and lifestyle in 1981. He currently practices nutritionally-based medicine at True North Health Center in Santa Rosa, California. Visit his website at: http://doctorklaper.com/

Several people have asked about the vitamin label Dr Klaper shows in the video. Dr Klaper said that he did not want to be seen as promoting any particular brand of vitamin, so didn't mention the brand in the talk. The label he showed was Dr Fuhrman's Women's Daily Formula D3. There is also a corresponding Men's Daily Formula D3. Try a google search for: Dr Fuhrman Vitamin
