So sad to think that way, but I don't think the specialists focus on what nutrition does for the body. The focus is on how to fix once it's broken. But without optimal nutrition, there is no health.Karlene Petitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17910702587514001827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-352377410388410195.post-83727980231837168892012-04-17T13:57:14.070-07:002012-04-17T13:57:14.070-07:00Thank you so much Denise!

Yes... they should let him know. It's really sad. The lack of believe in nutrition in the hospital is scary.
