I am posting this in haste, and I haven't had time to read it yet, but I know it comes from a good source.

It is from Prof Hooper's talk at the Academy of Nuitrition Medicine on November 19th 2017.

I look forward to reading what you all say about it when I return later.

“acronyms of ignorance”, including MUS

I like this phrase.

I notice this two-way use of the 'MUS' acronym. I'm regularly told off for interpreting it as 'Multiple' Unexplained Symptoms rather than 'Medically' Unexplained Symptoms. Seems I'm not the only one who uses the former term at times. I have seen both used on formal documents... That there doesn't *seem* to be an official line (???) on which is correct makes the use of these acronyms even more of a muddle than of course their very existence underscores.
