A balanced diet may be the best medicine. I was eating too much good eats. But people consider that part of your job you know? Eat. And I do!

The medical literature tells us that the most effective ways to reduce the risk of heart disease cancer stroke diabetes Alzheimer's and many more problems are through healthy diet and exercise. Our bodies have evolved to move yet we now use the energy in oil instead of muscles to do our work.

I'm trying to knock the medical profession into accepting its responsibilities and those responsibilities include assisting their patients with death.

Death is the liberator of him whom freedom cannot release the physician of him whom medicine cannot cure and the comforter of him whom time cannot console.

Crucial to understanding federalism in modern day America is the concept of mobility or 'the ability to vote with your feet.' If you don't support the death penalty and citizens packing a pistol - don't come to Texas. If you don't like medicinal marijuana and gay marriage don't move to California.

I went to medical school because I wanted to ask the big questions. Do we have a soul? Does God exist? What happens after death?

The Google algorithm was a significant development. I've had thank-you emails from people whose lives have been saved by information on a medical website or who have found the love of their life on a dating website.

My dad was good friends with the Bad Medicine Blues Band - one of the only blues bands in Fargo as you can imagine! He took me out to see them play when I was 12 years old and I was really inspired by their guitar player Ted Larsen.

When I was born in 1970 with a rare genetic disorder called spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita (SED) medical science wasn't what it is today and my mum and dad were treated terribly by the medical profession.

Dad was just an emotional wreck. He was drinking a lot of the time he was smoking a lot of pot. And because he takes certain medications the drinking was making him... you know he wasn't even present really.

My mother's a psychologist my stepfather's a psychologist my stepmother is a therapist and my dad's a lawyer. So it was all prominent in my life. I don't know anyone who doesn't know someone on some form of prescription medicine.

My dad's a doctor and when I was 8 I went to one of his medical conferences where they were demonstrating laser surgery on a chicken. I was so mad that a chicken had to die I never ate meat again.

You have a dramatic portion of your television program and you treat it dramatically and then you have a comedic portion of your program and you treat it differently. Why do you change who are between the two pieces? You're the same person. Just go.

I am a type-2 diabetic and they took me off medication simply because I ate right and exercised. Diabetes is not like a cancer where you go in for chemo and radiation. You can change a lot through a basic changing of habits.

Obviously comedic styles do change.

Folks the most insidious part of this whole health care scheme is that all of these vast medical expenditures will become nothing more than government budget items. We individuals will no longer exist. The relationship between a government and citizen will change forever.

After wrestling with myself for six months I began medical treatment. During that time I started a band with some friends of mine called Jack's Car but that didn't last.

A transfer of money should never be involved in this profound situation. Although illness is profound too but medicine's a business today. It's a business.

Business ethics has always had problems that are distinct from those of other professions such as medicine law engineering dentistry or nursing.

In almost every profession - whether it's law or journalism finance or medicine or academia or running a small business - people rely on confidential communications to do their jobs. We count on the space of trust that confidentiality provides. When someone breaches that trust we are all worse off for it.

The best medicine I know for rheumatism is to thank the Lord that it ain't gout.

A Harvard Medical School study has determined that rectal thermometers are still the best way to tell a baby's temperature. Plus it really teaches the baby who's boss.

I've always believed that there are funny people everywhere but they're just not comedians. In fact some of my best comedic inspirations were not professional entertainers.

Laughter is the best medicine - unless you're diabetic then insulin comes pretty high on the list.
