       …the facts

..America spends more on healthcare than any country on earth-2x what they pay in Europe.

..America has the worst healthcare outcome of any nation-ranking 79th behind Mongolia.

..The CDC says ⅔’s of Americans have chronic health issues-60 years ago it was 1%.

..74% of Americans and 50% of children are overweight or obese-Japan’s rate is 3%.

..½ of Americans are pre-diabetic or have type 2 diabetes-Alzheimer’s is now labeled Type 3.

..Diabetes now costs this country more than our military budget.

..According to the CDC, the rate of Autism in 2000 was 1 in 1500-today it’s 1 in 36.

..77% of our children are too disabled to qualify to serve in the military.

..18% of American teens have fatty liver disease-50 years ago it only affected elderly alcoholics.

..1 in 4 women is on antidepressant medication-

40% of teens have a mental health diagnosis.

..70% of a child’s diet is industrially manufactured-processed sugars, grains, seed oils.

..Tobacco industry in the 70’s/80’s bought the food companies-they created addictive chemicals.

..These chemicals are banned in Europe-not the USA.

..Pesticides, food additives, and toxic waste is in every cell of our body.

..Because young children now ingest estrogen puberty is age 10/13-in 1900 it was 6 years later.

..77% of school lunches are processed foods-there are no vegetables.

..75% of FDA funding comes from Big-Pharma-conflict of interest????

..Americans comprise 5% of the world’s population-they consume 50% of all drugs produced.

(this stat used to be 80% but it's now only 50% because we've exported our fast food lifestyle to the rest of the world and now they are getting sicker too)

..America’s pharma run, medicalized healthcare system is the 3rd leading cause of death...

…it’s time to change our approach to healthcare!
