מהו התחום הרפואי הנחקר אותו לא מלמדים בפקולטה לרפואה? ד״ר גיל יוסף שחר (M.D) CategoryEducationPriv

In this Hebrew‑language monologue Dr. Gil Joseph Shachar (M.D.) argues that nutritional medicine is a rigorously scientific discipline that is virtually absent from standard medical curricula. He recounts having read tens of thousands of research studies that demonstrate clear links between specific foods, dietary patterns, and a wide range of illnesses—including diabetes, hypertension, obesity, gastro‑esophageal reflux, inflammatory diseases, and lupus. Despite this extensive evidence, he explains that even after seven years of medical school at the Technion, he received virtually no education on how diet can be used therapeutically. Dr. Shachar emphasizes that most physicians today lack practical nutrition knowledge, not because of personal neglect but because the system does not teach it. He calls for greater integration of nutrition science into medical training and clinical practice, positioning dietary intervention as a powerful, under‑utilized tool for disease prevention and treatment.
