I weighed 193 pounds and had three chins. I couldn't get up before 9 a.m. and never saw patients before 10. I decided to go on a diet.

Nobody had ever told me junk food was bad for me. Four years of medical school, and four years of internship and residency, and I never thought anything was wrong with eating sweet rolls and doughnuts, and potatoes, and bread, and sweets.

I have had cardiomyopathy, which is a non-coronary condition and is in no way related to diet.

Fruit is definitely on the maintenance diet. It's on the lifestyle diet.

You take the healthiest diet in the world, if you gave those people vitamins, they would be twice as healthy. So vitamins are valuable.

A diet should be named after what you do eat, not what you don't eat.

Everyone would be healthier if they didn't eat junk food.
