HOW TO “CURE†METABOLIC SYNDROME (METS)
Metabolic Syndrome (MetS), which is a major predictor of
cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, is becoming increasingly more
prevalent among women. The only known “cure†for MetS is permanent
weight loss. However, despite a plethora of commercial diets being
sold to the public as ways of achieving weight loss, the national
trend of increasing adiposity is accelerating. In examining why this
is happening, we are compelled to figure out how to stop it. The 2PD
Approach incorporates these concepts into a method that allows a
mutually satisfying patient-physician collaboration to achieve the
permanent weight loss that has eluded millions in the U.S.

phony-baloney Dr. Andrew B. Chung MD/PhD credential double dip. <LOL>
"Foundation advisor" sounds like he consults about underwear.I couldn't locate a list of advisors on the web page or through a
directory search. I do wonder what a cardiologist would advise about
for a facility that specializes in cancer patients and doesn't provide
medical services.
He likely advises them about his profound love for all humanity and
how the bible is absolutely accurate in all translations and every
particular and how 2 pounds of food per day is enough for everybody
and how he's Christ's voice in usenet. See how useful his position on
that board could be for oncology patients?
Me neither.
