Dr. Minkoff is an alternative
healthcare expert, guest lecturer, writer, tv and radio show guest.
He also authors two weekly newsletters,
the BodyHealth Fitness Newsletter and the
Optimum Health Report.
Dr. David
Minkoff graduated from the University of Wisconsin Medical School
in 1974 and was elected to the “Phi Beta Kappa” of medical schools,
the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honors Medical Fraternity for
very high academic achievement.
He is board
certified in pediatrics and has completed a fellowship in
Infectious Diseases at the University of California in San Diego,
which included research in developing new medicines to fight viral
disease. As a clinical faculty member at the University, he also
served as co-director of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at
Palomar Medical Center.
In this episode our very own Holistic Health Practitioner Tonya Fines sits down with the very fit and energetic Dr Minkoff to discuss his latest book, The Search for the Perfect Protein.
"While regular medical practice if
you have an emergency... these things are wonderful and they really
help people but virtually for all the chronic diseases that people
have, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, rheumatoid arthritis,
auto-immune disease, Alzheimer's, MS, it's virtually worthless
because none of the treatments actually target what's wrong.."
and
"I think that the people who aren't eating are organic are just
virtually taking their life in their hands."
-Dr David Minkoff
