ZG #8 - Sick, Sad & Sedated, Australia’s Health Crisis: Exposing the Collapse (Part 5/12)
In a world where antidepressants are more common than multivitamins and junk food is cheaper than fresh fruit, being healthy is no longer the default — it's a luxury.
In this hard-hitting episode, Zeke Guenthroth dives deep into the collapse of health in Australia and across the globe. With skyrocketing obesity, declining mental resilience, and a pharmaceutical industry booming off your breakdown, we expose how society is designed to keep you sick, slow, and sedated.
We cover:
- Australia's rising suicide rates and skyrocketing prescriptions for ADHD, anxiety, and depression
- The obesity epidemic — how it became the norm, and what it’s costing us
- Muscle loss, cardiovascular disease, and the collapse of everyday physical strength
- The cost gap between junk food and nutritious options — and how big food giants profit from it
- Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) and their addictive role in breaking our bodies
- Government health spending — why prevention gets less than 2% of the budget
- How diagnosis inflation is reframing childhood behaviour as clinical disorders
- The war on masculinity and physical strength in schools, media, and culture
- Solutions: Gym rebates, taxing UPFs, and reframing physicality as essential
