CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME…

Who are the AMA (American Medical Association) allies and opponents (if any) and also whether this group is involved in any lobbying or not and why and how this affects the health care reform?

This group only cares that they get paid….no matter how that is accomplished.

Robert asks…

Why does the american medical association and the college of surgeons support obamas health reform?

All the doctors want it, consumers want it.

The only people who don’t want it have something to lose like votes or profits.

I can hear it now. “Those DAMNED AMA liberals!”

Michael asks…

What is the American Medical Association? Are they made up of Doctors?

I am wondering becuase they seem to have a lot of influence in what is called a disease.
Why do they call alcoholism a disease? No other disease can be controlled or cured by abstinance. Lung Cancer cannot be cured by quitting smoking. Aids canot be cured by not having sex or any other STD. Skin cancer cannot be cured by staying out of the sun . Other diseases once we get it must be trreated to be cured or controlled.

Wize Guy answers:

American MEDICAL Association. Yes their members
are DOCTORS.

Mandy asks…

What is the carb intake according to the American Medical Association?

My Dr. put me on adipex diet pills today. Two pills twice a day. He advised me to go low carb according the AMA website. I can not find anything telling me how many carbs to limit myself to on the AMA website.
Any suggestions?

Wize Guy answers:

You shouldn’t need diet pills with a low carb diet since high calories are encouraged to keep the metabolism from slowing down. You will lose more body fat eating protein and fat (don’t eat protein alone) than not eating AT ALL. To lose weight fast eat all you want but nothing but meat, eggs, healthy oils, mayo, butter and half an avocado a day (you’ll need added potassium). Keep the calories high and the fat percentage high, at least 65% of calories. Adding in green vegetables & some cheese will continue weight loss but at a slower pace.

If you starve yourself by lowering calories lower than are needed for the body to function, your body will freak out and will want to store every ounce in case it doesn’t get nourished again. You need to give it adequate nourishment so it doesn’t slow your metabolism down to adjust for lower calories.

Simple carbohydrates (sugar, flour, bread, cereal, pasta, potatoes, rice) triggers insulin which can store the calories you eat into fat. The more protein you eat the more the fat burning hormone glucagon is released. The more carbohydrate you eat the more the fat storage hormone insulin is released.

Carbs are addictive and can be disastrous to our health. The best way to break the addiction is NO carbs for 3 days. Make a huge batch of deviled eggs and eat one every time you want “something” have huge omelets for breakfast, with bacon, a lil onion, peppers, mushrooms & cheese. Pork chops for lunch. Get pork rinds and eat them with tuna salad. Steak for dinner. Make a huge sugar free cheese cake for dessert. Eat so much you won’t feel deprived of anything. By the fourth day, your addiction will be gone and you can start making healthy choices.

High insulin levels unbalance other hormones. Controlling your insulin level will balance out other hormones & allow human growth hormone (HGH) to be produced naturally so you will gain lean muscle even without exercise. Any exercise will greatly increase your muscle mass with high HGH levels.

Dr.Atkins was a cardiologist, low carb was a health plan easier sold as a “diet” Read any of his books for easily understandable science. Lutz “Life without Bread” & Taubes “Good calorie, bad calorie” are excellent books that dispel all the nutrition myths.

Reducing body fat and increasing muscle mass will have you in awesome shape in no time. Good luck!

George asks…

What are the demographics of the American Medical Association?

demographics are like the type of people they are appealing too. So like old, young, a certain race. Male or female. Democrat or republican. If anyone knows these that would be awesome!
