Discussing Diet with a Chef and Osteopath Colin Zhu
Source: A Doctor’s Perspective with Dr. Justin Trosclair, DC
Combining a plant based nutrition education on top of a primary care osteopath degree is what Dr. Colin Zhu has done and created a book and podcast to explore these important nutrition concepts to help treat disease.
Growing up with a Chinese mother who has been doing Traditional Chinese Medicine for nearly 40 years and helping out in the office from time to time had a big impact on Dr. Zhu’s life. Originally thinking he would be a chiropractor but then switching over to Osteopath and bridging the East Meets West healing approach.
Dr. Colin graduated off cycle so he had some free time on his hands before residency. Upon graduating he quickly realized that the day to day diseases we treat (diabetes, high cholesterol) can be benefited by what we eat. Since school was a bit of a let down on those topics he enrolled in the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and the National Gourmet Institute.
