Reaven’s problem was like that faced by Dawin & Galileo, who’s findings estranged them from religious orthodoxy. Reaven’s unifying hypothesis of chronic disease not only offends his colleagues in cardiology; it strikes at the very heart of “pharmacological model” practiced in modern medicine. If obesity, diabetes, heart disease, NAFLD (Non alcoholic fatty liver disease), high blood pressure, & perhaps even cancer & dementia are, in fact, all symptoms of the same underlying condition – Insulin Resistance – then our current model of medical management must be wrong, requiring as it does, specific but different pharmacological treatments for each separate condition overseen by different hierarchies of medical specialists. And what if the cornerstone for treatment of all these conditions is a low carbohydrate diet, the very diet that has been vilified by Tim’s profession for the past 50 years?
One disease, one cause, many symptoms.
