Author
In 2016 ophthalmologist and Associate Clinical Professor Emeritus Chris Knobbe MD proffered a revolutionary hypothesis for both the cause and the treatment of age-related macular degeneration; since then his supportive research writings and presentations have received tremendous accolades from colleagues and fellow nutrition researchers alike. Knobbe has presented his hypothesis and supportive research on numerous stages all across the United States and for a number of organizations including the Christian Ophthalmology Society the Ancestral Health Symposium the Weston A. Price Foundation and the Macular Degeneration Association. Knobbe is the worlds only ophthalmologist to have proffered such a hypothesis but which has also been buttressed by supportive research published in the highly esteemed journal Medical Hypotheses in November 2017. Ophthalmologist and retina specialist of the United Kingdom Andrew J. Luff MA FRCS FRCS(Ophtha) FRCOphth writes As the prevalence of AMD escalates the devastating consequences of visual loss take their relentless toll on individuals families and health economies. This epidemic continues to grow oblivious to a plethora of research. A massive financial investment (both University-based and pharmaceutical) has made no impact on the incidence of a disease that has resisted minor nutritional tinkering and seen no significant gain from our exponentially increased knowledge of genetics. In researching our frustrating lack of success in the quest for a unifying cause of AMD Dr. Knobbe concludes that we have been looking in the wrong place.From a meticulous examination of ophthalmic history comparative epidemiology and dietary change across the globe he constructs a cogent and compelling argument for defects in basic nutrition as the fundamental driver of AMD. The data are stark and the potential consequences of dietary deficiency sobering. Dr. Knobbes rational conclusion that a shift from traditional foods can wreak havoc on macular function will come as no surprise to those who have postulated similar cause for the multitude of chronic diseases now endemic in so-called developed nations.His hypothesis is unlikely to be welcomed by those committed to pharmacological intervention. Furthermore a radical change to the diet of billions will not happen quickly. However for newly diagnosed patients seeking hope and clinicians struggling for an answer Dr. Knobbes remarkable book offers the first tangible lifeline. To impact on the visual health of a nation we need a paradigm shift in the attitude of government and a radical rethink of the artificially constructed boundaries between nutrition and medicine. The visual health of many millions of people worldwide over the coming decades may depend on whether Knobbes message is heard by those with both the political power and the financial commitment to take action.-- Andrew J. Luff MA FRCS FRCS(Ophtha FRCOphth Vitreo-Retinal Surgeon United Kingdom Fellow of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists Dr. Knobbes revolutionary hypothesis extraordinary research and scientific rigor is second to none. After having read the book or seen Knobbes presentations many have remarked How can his conclusions be refuted?
