I know Ms L spoke about ULs for vitamins. Also in the syllabus there was a mention of using food and nutrition for alleviating illnesses and chronic disorders. Here is one opinion on the subject Dr Abram Hoffer explored as early as the mid-fifties as a psychiatrist in Canada. He had good outcomes using nutrition to treat schizophrenia and in some cases curing it. What will we do for a population that is disenfranchised from the medical system due to cost or "pre-existing" conditions? Food and nutrition(FN) may be the panacea for the poor. Industrial agriculture brings us industrial levels of pesticide and herbicide residues and indenture the ability to grow food to the petrochemical/seed conglomerates who decide what strains are available for our staples. I don't like this and it bodes poorly for the possible reaching the goals for Healthy People 2010.
