One of the great perks of doing a residency at a university-affiliated hospital is the ability to do clinical research! I am currently working on a research project on chronic disease and nutrition with my colleagues in the Department of Family Medicine and a physician at the VA Hospital, Dr. Terry Wahls. She has had a remarkable transformation in her own health over the last 2 years due to intensive nutrition. You can read about her story here and find more information on her website at www.terrywahls.com. I highly recommend attending one or more of her lectures in Cedar Rapids and Iowa City this spring , regardless of whether you suffer from any chronic medical condition. They are very informative, and if you attend, you can participate in my research!
On a separate note, some of you have requested that we share some of our own recipes, so I will be posting those in the side column in the near future.
