RD's of America please use "The Flexner Report" as your political guide as to how in a U.S based Healthcare system influenced more by MONEY and POLITICS instead of skill/need you can position yourselves politically to save America/Americans from the development or advancement of metabolically preventable disease. Live in America RD's but we need you to work as if you were in Europe, Canada or Asia.

The use of Metformin and Insulin after over 50 years plus of helping control diabetes type 2 have now become cheap but effective medications for patients so the push now by BIG "P", is to publish studies which will get these medications off the market so that Hmmm some people will start prescribing those new, fancy, expensive medications for metabolically preventable Diabetes Type 2, while not considering potential risks of Heart Failure when resurrecting something old, buried and brought back to shareholders as something new and quite expensive.(AVANDIA). New names, same dynamic.
