Diet-related diseases are the No. 1 cause of death in the US – yet many doctors receive little to no nutrition education in med school

Summary

Nutrition label

A poor diet may lead to cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity and obesity.

Diet-related diseases are the leading causes of death in the U.S. , and a poor diet is responsible for more deaths than smoking.

In a 2023 survey of more than 1,000 medical students, 58% said they received no formal nutrition education while in medical school.

Good dietary advice is individualized and takes into account one’s age, sex, goals, body weight, goals and preferences.

Most medical students and physicians acknowledge the critical role nutrition plays in health.

We hope nutrition education, after being devalued or ignored for decades , will soon be an integral part of every medical school's curriculum.
