101 Diet, Health, & Lifestyle Tips

3. We do not have a health care crisis.


Much media attention has been given to our “health care crisis”. We must change our frame of reference. We have a food crisis. If we eat better, we will feel better. It’s that simple. While most of the focus has been on the obesity epidemic, we need to address the food issue.

Begin with the food, pass over obesity and go straight to disease. Obesity, like many other topics are distractions – Horrific food = Disease.

Most health experts would agree with Dr. Dean Ornish’s observation: “Our bodies have a remarkable ability to begin healing themselves if we simply stop doing what’s causing the problem.”

We have a food crisis. 75% of our health care costs are spent on chronic 
disease linked to the diet…and that is bankrupting us. - Michael Pollan
