What doctors don't learn in medical school

Recently, I presented a talk titled “What they don’t teach cardiologists in medical school.” Here's a video recording of that talk:

As it turns out, there’s a lot of important information that’s not taught.

The reason I founded Step One Foods is that the longer I took care of patients, the more obvious it became to me that I was treating the wrong thing! But I also realized it wasn’t just me – the entire system is broken.

There are perverse incentives that steer physicians to prescribe drugs instead of food. There are check-marks on food labels that are bought and paid for. And well-meaning FDA guidelines around health claims for food products are routinely abused for the purposes of marketing hype.

Here's a fact: Food can be just as powerful as medicine in treating many health problems. At Step One Foods, we've gone as far as clinically validating our approach! 

The problem is that we live in a world where it’s almost impossible to support health through food. And isn’t that a tragedy?

This is exactly what Step One Foods is trying to solve because we truly believe food is the answer. 

If you're ready to put food at the center of your own health treatment plan, take step one today.

Food, but with a
medical degree.

I built Step One Foods for my patients. Two servings a day replace the breakfast and snack you already eat.

Tested in a double-blind, randomized crossover trial conducted at Mayo Clinic and the University of Manitoba, 80% of participants lowered their LDL in 30 days.
