Right on. Similarly, I don't like the idea that doctors should get training in nutrition and advise on that. They have their hands full with what they already must do, and that's where their interests lie. I shudder to think what the nutrition training would be like and how they'd be advising us to eat.

Right on. Similarly, I don't like the idea that doctors should get training in nutrition and advise on that. They have their hands full with what they already must do, and that's where their interests lie. I shudder to think what the nutrition training would be like and how they'd be advising us to eat. It would be agenda and money-driven, like their pharma shilling. What advice they currently give out now isn't good, and formal "training" would make it even worse.
You are mistaken if you think the current training they get about nutrition and most other things is not influenced by Big Ag and other corporate interests.
I believe wholeheartedly that if the AHA started getting “endorsement fees” from CPAP companies, they would change their current policy recommending against routine sleep studies for folks with cardiac disease. Sleep apnea is commonly present in people with cardiac disease, yet the AHA refuses to recommend that folks with, even, say, bypass surgery, be screened for it. Despite a study showing 50% of men post-bypass have moderate to severe sleep apnea - a HUGE risk factor for ongoing heart disease, graft failure, and heart failure. It’s disgusting.
I have read they get some training in nutrition, but it's a minimal amount. Of course it would be total BS like all the rest of their education, designed with only profit in mind. With the caveat of course that they must learn enough to do SOME useful tasks, just enough the clueless public continues to believe in their profession. Thankfully, they've lost a lot of that trust lately. The medical profession is populated by the very worst criminals in society, naturally, since it's the most fertile ground for taking advantage of the system and desperate people for personal gain. There are plenty of exceptions like AMWD, but most of them are unable to be effective within such a broken system.
