Our own beloved Sonoma County doctor, John McDougall, M.D.,  authored bill SB 380 in the California legislation. This bill would require all medical doctors in the state of California to include a course on nutrition as part of their continuing medical education.

This video shows opening statements from Dr. McDougall and Dr. Forrester, on the Senate floor.
