The US life expectancy at birth is at its lowest since 1996, but meanwhile, we spend the highest amount on healthcare per capita than any other nation in the world relative to our wealth. On today’s episode, I’m pulling back the curtain of what's been going on within the US healthcare system and what the statistics really show.
Two of the leading causes of death in the US, heart disease and liver issues, are conditions that are both preventable and figure-out-able. Decreasing inflammation is easily done through diet and lifestyle changes, and I’m living proof that it’s possible to reverse chronic conditions. But, these modalities don’t provide any financial gain for corporations and Big Pharma. To date, the largest drug companies make higher profits than the largest companies of any other sector. Our healthcare budgets are increasing while health outcomes are decreasing.
So, where do we go from here? Luckily, lifestyle medicine, functional medicine, and holistic practitioners are showing some positive health outcomes for people with chronic disease and pain. I’m urging you to take your health into your own hands and get curious about how you can truly heal.
Listen in to hear my thoughts about the current state of healthcare in the US and where I see possible solutions.
