Here it is: the official announcement from the Journal of the American
Medical Association: poor diet and lack of physical exercise is going to
overtake tobacco as our #1 killer. That's right: our food supply is
killing us. Why? Because, of course, it's loaded with metabolic
disruptors, milled grains, processed carbohydrates, high fructose corn
syrup, hydrogenated oils and other disease-causing ingredients.
It's
not helping much, either, that most people simply won't engage in
regular physical exercise. Now, according to even the AMA, all this adds
up to major chronic disease. Unfortunately, organized medicine will
continue to focus on using prescription drugs to combat this issue
rather than focusing on prevention and patient education. Because, after
all, every modern chronic disease -- cancer, diabetes, heart disease,
osteoporosis, and even clinical depression -- can be largely prevented
through good nutrition, regular physical exercise, supplementation with
health-enhancing superfoods and frequent exposure to natural sunlight.
