Dr. Anchors was a scientist first (Hearvard PhD biochemistry), a physician second (NIH and practice in Rockville, Maryland), and a weight-loss doctor from 1995 on. He has the patent on the phen-pro combination of medicines, the only safe effective combination of medicines for the long-term treatment of excessive hunger (each word carefully chosen); but on his blog (www.phenpro.com) he explains that the Eight Lessons are the most important component of a successful weight-loss program. Recently he has become alive to the fact that cholesterol has nothing to do with heart disease, statin drugs hurt people, American doctors overtreat blood pressure & diabetes, salt is okay and many other facts proven but not generally known. American doctors don't know since they don't read evidence; they know only what drug companies tell them. Dr. Anchors joins others in a campaign to spread the truth.
