If you think you are getting better advice at Kaiser from a doctor following AMA protocol knock yourself out. IMO, diet matters. Supplements matter. Exercise matters. Treatments matter. It's so weird that this is the only place I go where people think it doesn't. IMO diet is king. To each their own though.

Again. You are moving the goalposts
This is classic selection bias. A group of healthy people chose to pay extra money to see a "high end physician" that promotes supplements. You said it yourself, these are healthy individuals (49ers athletes and silicon valley executives) choosing to see this physician. That doesn't mean the physician is making them healthy. If you cannot see the error in your logic, I don't know what to tell you
Of course diet and exercise is important, everyone knows this, including the AMA. This isn't some secret.
The average primary care physician does not have a self-selected healthy group of patients that exercises regularly and follows a healthy diet.
This has nothing to do with an alkaline diet or using Vitamin C to treat viral infections.
