Yes, I’m talking about the debacle of a debate regarding the care of our bodies and minds. The US does not have the best health care in the world it has the most expensive health care, and our current system is not taking care of our health it is taking care of our diseases. It’s in the business of disease treatment and management.
True comprehensive health care must integrate prevention of unnecessary chronic diseases specifically related to lifestyle choices. We could make substantial and cost effective gains in health by being physically active and making nutritious smaller portioned food choices alone! The fundamental problem with our system is that is does not help people become or stay healthy.
So how do we change the conversation or at least shift some focus to addressing the attributes and strategies for promoting and implementing healthier lifestyles. This is our challenge in the health care debate.
