This guy is is obviously an idiot but I think that's a little disingenuous. Medical professionals who are not nutritionists receive less training than they should on many things, but to say zero like all doctors have no idea what carbohydrates and proteins are is just wrong.

This is incredibly disingenuous. Nutrition is incorporated into most of the medical curriculum. Biochemistry is an entire course. I am involved in discussions with dieticians every day, frequently having to correct their misconceptions, not as the one getting corrected.

Furthermore it is quite simply not that complicated once you drill down past the bullshit and stick to what we actually know. Eleven hours is more than enough dedicated classroom time, once you account for the 4-5 outside hours spent reading in preparation per hour of discussion.

This is a hit piece written by people with an agenda, with all the subtlety of a nurse claiming she saves the lives of her patients every day by protecting them from the evil, cruel physicians. And this agenda is similarly complete bullshit.
