Adding the study one year update here too:http://blog.virtahealth.com/virtas-...sarah-hallberg/

82% continued enrollment at one year...so much for the common criticism of LC that it is unsustainable.


Dr. Westman sees patients from a spectrum of socio-economic backgrounds in his clinic. It appeared to me from others in the waiting room that some may not have had access to healthcare previously. Considered an obesity specialist, he gets referrals from GPs or social services, patients are not in his care until crisis mode. The economic disparities around North Carolina are severe, and in West Virginia, possibly worse with fewer medical treatment centers. You may not see crazy BG highs thanks to Canadian universal healthcare.

Dr Westman has good presentations on DietDoctor, describing his clinic practice and showing patient results. He mentions in the role-playing video why he makes the "rules" so simple...a short list of foods. https://www.dietdoctor.com/?s=Dr+westman
