This AMA/ACGME protection theory is covered by Yascha Mounk at https://www.persuasion.community/p/deaton and elsewhere.
Discussion of physician protectionism is also found in the 2017 book by John Hopkins political science professor Steven Teles and Niskanen Center vice president Brink Lindsey The Captured Economy: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-captured-economy...
The New York Times covered the AMA's lobbying in this 1986 article: https://www.nytimes.com/1986/06/14/us/ama-board-studies-ways...
There's also the 1970 article by University of Chicago economics professor Reuben A. Kessel, The A.M.A. and the Supply of Physicians: https://scholarship.law.duke.edu/lcp/vol35/iss2/4/
There's also things found alongside gluten like arabinoxylan which promotes the growth of certain bacteria like prevotella. At this I should mention that a possibly helpful daily breakfast to address digestion issues (with both prebiotics and probiotics) is greek yogurt + frozen blueberries + chopped walnuts.

Note: other posts here have mentioned some of the medical concerns regarding xylitol so you'll need to do your own research and weigh risks but this suggested combination could be a place to start

To become certified, you can do the AHA HeartCode adaptive class online in about an hour, followed by a 10 minute skills test on a Voice-Assisted Manikin. The manikin simulations guide you with incredible feedback on depth and rate and have come a long way from the old style of dummies. Conveniently, these are in self-serve stations across the country (often in an office space near your local hospital that you let yourself into with a combination code).
Also, some of the more useful learning tools are the animated visualizations showing the physiology involved such as https://youtube.com/watch?v=9QPwrVIBMvY — these help learners conceptualize how the first few compressions are not effectively circulating blood but are instead building up pressure (which helps them understand why continuous compressions are considered by healthcare professionals when there is not yet an advanced airway and used after there is — https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CIR.0000000000001369...).
Though, be prepared: it may not be a sufficiently satisfying answer (but then… you have Isaiah 45:15)
