Despite numerous medical breakthroughs in the battle against the most common diseases, as a population we are developing chronic illnesses earlier in life and we die much sooner than necessary. We are victims of a lack of knowledge about how the human body actually functions and the willingness of a lot of large companies to conceal this information to protect record profits.
In 1900, the average life expectancy was 47 years.
By 1950 it had risen to 68 and in 2019 rose to 79.
By 2021 it had fallen to 76.
Now, 75.
Research indicates that maximum life expectancy is about 120, and a small number of people have exceeded that. Forty-four years of robust life is a pretty big gap between what is possible and what is being done.
In his book, Outlive, Dr. Peter Attia wrote that autopsies on young people who died from accidents, homicides, or other non-cardiovascular related causes have revealed that as many as a third of sixteen- to twenty-one-year-olds already had plaque in their coronary arteries when they died. As teenagers!
According to a newly released study by the American Association for Cancer Research in San Diego, younger generations seem to be aging faster at the cellular level than their predecessors and this is leading to an increased risk of early-onset cancer.
If a foreign nation was doing this to our children, we would be at war.
But wait, we can’t.
According to the Heritage Foundation, twenty-seven percent of young people ages 17-24 aren’t eligible for military service because of obesity, with another 37% ineligible due to other health problems such as asthma or joint problems.
We cannot solve a problem if we won’t admit to it. We must take stock of where we are. Powerful forces are working together to make us sick, miserable and die way too young. But the propaganda machine says we cannot talk about it because it could be triggering.
The truth is that we don’t want to talk about it because it is embarrassing. We were each given one thing to look after, one thing through which to experience all that life has to offer and most of us have failed.
We are fat. America has a huge health problem that is taboo. Is that because treating symptoms is so profitable? Why would we deliberately do this to ourselves?
According to the National Institute of Health:
42% of American adults are obese,
30% are overweight and:
10% are severely obese.
That means that 82% of the population is chronically unhealthy.
Statista Consumer Insights reports that 41% of American’s are unhappy with their health.
That number should be double.
Only 18 percent of us could fight our way out of a wet paper bag.
A sedentary lifestyle and improper nutrition choices have left most Americans handicapped. Bad choices, not bad luck are at the root of most of America’s expensive health care.
Nor does it take a lifetime of bad choices to destroy a human body, now even our youth have succumbed.
No one is coming to save us. No one wants to save us. We have to regain control of our lives.
Get active. Carpe Diem!
It used to be, “First, do no harm.”
Now it’s “make lots of money”.
How sold out is a system that exists to misinform to protect its profits?
Medical schools are dependent on endowments from big pharma, big agra, and a rogue’s
gallery of foreign elites.
Never mind the fact that 82% of us are unhealthy for the same reason. According to a comprehensive study published in the BMC Medical Education Journal, “U.S. medical schools are not adequately preparing their students to manage patients with obesity. Despite the obesity epidemic and high-cost burden, medical schools are not prioritizing obesity in their curricula.”
And to the extent that they teach anything, it’s BS.
At the University of California, Los Angeles, and other leading medical schools, fat is viewed as an incurable disease. It may not be curable in their world, but it can be defeated.
So, more diseases to treat and medicate? Oh, oh, oh, Ozempic.
Is your mind not blown? They aren’t even trying to solve the problem, so it is a fair question to ask why?
The late psychiatrist and author Wayne Dyer said, “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”
What if this was crack? Would we call it crack-shaming? Would I let you die rather than hurt your feelings?
The definition of insanity, we are told, is doing the same things over and over and expecting a different result. Maybe we have been looking at this all wrong. Maybe we need to acknowledge that it isn’t us. We are the victims of an undeclared war. Big-agra and big pharma have been poisoning us for several decades.
What if big medicine actually owned the pharmacies? Would you be even more suspicious of the onslaught of wonder drugs being touted in the media?
I found this on the internet.
“Health system-owned retail pharmacies are redefining the landscape of patient care, bridging the gaps in healthcare delivery, and harnessing the power of technology for better health outcomes. Their unwavering commitment to integration, collaboration, and innovation positions them as invaluable partners in the ongoing pursuit of better health for all.”
Oh, really? By what measure are we getting healthier?
Take note that for all the talk about banning guns to prevent needless deaths, 48,000 people die annually from gun-shot wounds while In the United States, but more than half of these deaths were suicides.
Maybe we should make other options available to accommodate suicides.
Approximately one million people die annually from diet-related chronic diseases in the United States, and these numbers are rising.
Poor diet is the leading cause of U.S. mortality which is directly related to malnutrition and chronic diseases including type 2 diabetes (T2D), cardiovascular disease (CVD), obesity, and some cancers.
Almost half of U.S. adults have pre-diabetes (38%) or diabetes (11.3%).
In 2022, 126.9 million Americans 20 years and older have some form of CVD, comprising approximately 37% of the U.S. population.
CVD is the leading cause of death for men and women in the U.S., accounting for 695,000 total deaths in 2021.
In 2021, diabetes was the eighth leading cause of mortality in the U.S., resulting in 103,294 deaths.
First, they make us sick, then they make us sicker, what’s left? The Mayo Clinic reports nearly seventy percent of Americans take at least one prescription medicine per day. At least one. That we know of.
A study conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey found measurable amounts of one or more medications in 80% of the water samples drawn from a network of 139 streams in 30 states.
The drugs identified included a witches’ brew of antibiotics, antidepressants, blood thinners, heart medications (ACE inhibitors, calcium-channel blockers, and more recently, Fentanyl has started to appear in water systems.
Never mind the toxic chemicals, microplastics and dangerous pathogens swimming around in there with them.
Here is a list of the most common side effects of our most often prescribed drugs.

Sudden Death!
We cannot trust our food. There was a time when food wasn’t the by-product of some laboratory experiment mixing chemicals and biogens just to see what might happen. Now we know and it isn’t good.
Out of the 766 food chemicals introduced into the American food supply since 2000, 756 lack FDA approval.
Ultra processed options tend to contain:
They’re also defined by what they lack. These ready-to-eat products are often so processed that vegetables, grains and other unprocessed foods are either barely present or absent.
However, they are full of chemicals that make you want more.
When combined, the two most dreaded words in the English language may very well be Diet and Exercise. That wouldn’t be true if people got positive results.
The problem is getting worse, not better. Why? There are dozens of sources for advice about diet and exercise.
It is a $71 billion industry and each year 45 million people in the United States go on weight loss programs— from tailored meal plans like Slim Fast and Nutrisystem, Paleo, Keto, gluten-free to high fat, no carb, all-fat, no-fat, no carb, no food, and cleansing.
Yet according to studies— 95% of diets fail.
Why? Because they are designed to fail. Eighty-two percent of the nation is fat.
If diets succeeded, their purveyors would soon be out of business. Their very survival depends on fat, ill-informed Americans.
“I once believed that diet and nutrition could cure almost all ills, but I no longer feel that strongly about it. Nutritional biochemistry is an important component of our tactics, but it is not the only path to longevity or even the most powerful one. I see it more as a rescue tactic.”
Diets do not work because they go against our physical and mental programming.
We are wired to go forth and conquer, not count calories. Diets fail because you cannot do a don’t. We cannot abstain our way to progress.
We create positive changes in our lives from actions we take, not by avoiding things.
There are words like diet and exercise, which cannot overcome their negative connotations. The implication is that we will be forced to go without something we really want. Since they ask us to deprive ourselves of pleasure, they go against our very basic human nature.
We DO things well, but we can’t do a don’t. Tell us not to do something and we can’t stop thinking about it. We are programmed to act, not sit on our hands.
Diets replicate the body’s response to periods of inadequate nutrition by storing more fat. Fat is a survival mechanism. It is intended to insulate us against cold and to sustain us through times of limited food. When we withhold food, we send a message that triggers the storage of fat. The more often we try deprivation, the more often we trigger the fat response.
There is no diet plan, no pill, no electronic device, and no magic elixir that will make you healthier. Drugs often come with negative side effects that may not surface until years later.
You don’t need to be a conspiracy theorist when you know that 82% of Americans are handicapped and die too young and wonder why medical schools have no curriculum focused on preventing obesity.
It’s even worse than that since their media partners receive Drug ads made up 24.4 percent of all advertising minutes on evening news broadcasts across major networks — including ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, and NBC — through May of this year, according to iSpot.
On CBS Evening News, pharmaceutical companies appeared in more than 70 percent of commercial breaks, per Kantar Media.
