I became acquainted with Dr. Code when he did a phone interview on "Living for the health of it" a show on CHLY 101.7 FM that I co-host with Pam Edgar who is a Master Trainer for the Chronic Disease Self management program maintained by the University of Victoria on Vancouver Island In British Columbia. After a few discussions with Dr. Code it became very apparent he and I had very similar views on the role of nutrition in controlling chronic diseases. Dr. Code recently became my personal physician.
