You can watch TV or read a magazine and it wont take you very long to come across a drug advertisement. When you hear about health care reform it is always about treatment. Why do you never hear about prevention? Why? Because there is no money for big corporations with prevention. If I was a CEO I couldn't make money if I told you to eat right and exercise. If I were to do that how could I sell you my treatments? Preventable diseases have now surpassed infectious disease as the top killers on the planet. The big three heart disease, cancer, and diabetes combined kill 2.5 million people every year in America alone. The reason? We are all heavily marketed to believe that modern medicine will give us a pill or treatment instead of taking responsibility for our health. The man in the white coat will make it better. We have been dis-empowered to take control of our health with food and drug company rhetoric. The attitude that "they know whats best for us" has to stop.
Good Nutrition is a giant step towards disease prevention. Most doctors don't get more than a semester of nutrition education. Why is that? The medical industrial complex has a marketing machine in place to sell you their best products, in this case it's surgery and drugs.Our greatest weapon against this rising epidemic is education, and I dont mean public education or government education. I mean you educating yourself about your health.
There are individuals out there with the right information you have to look for it!, it isn't profitable for corporations to provide you with formation that hurts their bottom line!
