The worst crisis in the history of our nation |

From Dr. Hyman:
This is the worst crisis in the history of our nation...
We are facing an epidemic of obesity and related diseases
that if not solved, will bankrupt our society.
For the first time in the history of our species, our life
expectancy is going DOWN -- that means our children will
live sicker and die younger than their parents.
Unfortunately I am not being alarmist -- the facts speak for
themselves:
- 65% of Americans are overweight, up 18% since 1994...
- 30% of us are obese, up from 36% since 1994...
- Over 40% of us have high cholesterol...
- 50% of Americans over 65 have high blood pressure, and
28.7% overall, a 3.7% increase from 1991.
- Nearly 70% of people are unaware they have high blood
pressure...
- 5.1% of us have type-2 diabetes, up 104% from 1980 to
2004...
- Over 100,000,000 Americans have metabolic syndrome, which
is one step away from having type-2 diabetes...
- 92% of Americans are deficient in one or more essential
vitamins and minerals...
As startling as these statistics are, they are easy to
ignore, because they don't effect our everyday lives in any
meaningul way ... or do they?
Did you know that:
- Americans spend $117 billion annually treating obesity-
linked diseases including heart disease, diabetes, dementia,
cancer, arthritis and more...
- Over $50 billion is spent annually on weight loss
alone...
- Of the $1.9 trillion spent on health care (16% of our
GNP), ONLY 2% is spent on prevention...
- Medicare and Medicaid costs are expected to skyrocket
with medicaid expenditures ballooning an estimated 8.9% a
year from 2002 to 2012 with Medicare jumping 6.7% a year
as well...
- And not surprisingly, health care costs have exploded by
250% from $717 billion in 1990 to $1.9 trillion in 2004...
- Despite the U.S. leading the world in terms of the amount
spent per person on health care (about $5,000) we are
nearly dead last (12 out of 13) when it comes to leading
health indicators...
- Health insurance costs have skyrocketed by over 10% a
year for the last 4 years. Since 2000 cost of health
insurance has increased 59% while wages have increased only
12%.
Let me sum that up for you: we are paying through the nose
for our health care and getting no return on our investment.
But the worst part about this entire crisis is that the
solution is available to us RIGHT NOW...
...Unfortunately, those stakeholders in the health care industry
that I mentioned earlier -- the government and food and drug
industries -- are doing everything in their power to PREVENT
this information from getting to you.
If this information were to get out and people suddenly had
better health and lost weight, entire industries would
collapse, companies would go bankrupt, shareholders would be
upset and lawsuits would be filed.
Money is a very powerful motivating factor as I am sure you
already know.
But at least this is clear: What we are currently doing is
NOT working to fix this crisis.
A new approach is necessary.
We need to capitalize on recent advances in science that
tell us precisely how our bodies operate and to use that to
form a blueprint that shows us EXACTLY how to work with our
bodies naturally, instead of against them as we do now.
Remember the excitement when we deciphered the human genome
a few years ago? There was a big flurry of activity and
then ... silence.
Well, the fruits of that labor are finally coming to us, out
of the research labs and into medical practice.
That new approach is finally here: it is the cutting-edge
science of nutrigenomics -- The science of how food talks
to our genes.
Revitalized health, permanent weight loss and reinvigorated
energy are finally at the fingertips of those who never have
been able to find a simple solution that works -- and is
healthy.
The concept is simple: by learning to work WITH the natural
forces that control health and weight, and removing the
factors that work AGAINST those forces and that promote
disease and obesity, we can program our bodies to
automatically lose weight and become healthy.
Rome wasn't built in a day and this national obesity and
health crisis we are facing won't be solved overnight.
But history has taught us that regardless of how powerless
we might feel in the face of a challenge, it IS possible to
make a permanent change if we work together, and there is no
better time than RIGHT NOW for this to start.
If we keep sweeping this problem under the carpet, turning
our heads the other way, and telling ourselves that this
problem will go magically disappear, it will be too late to
make a change and our society will buckle under the immense
economic, financial and political pressure that will ensue.
But we CAN do something right now and there is no better
place to start than with ourselves and our loved ones.
All of us here at Alternative Medicine, believe America faces a national obesity crisis that affects the health and well being of millions, both nationally and internationally. Our medical editor, Mark Hyman, MD, has just written a book that sheds new light on how this epidemic has evolved and what people can to do to take back control of their health and their bodies. We're pleased to share the following message and special offer from Dr. Hyman, which we feel will help you as well as your family, and your friends, in your quest for optimum health.
