No.

βœ… Restore common sense.

Good is the enemy of great.

Chronic diseases account for approximately 90% of U.S. healthcare spending. In the 1950s, healthcare spending was around 5% of GDP. Today, it’s 18%, the highest among developed nations.

Why 18% of GDP?

❌ Incremental compromise.

Effective immediately, restore the definitions of FOOD and HEALTHCARE to their original form.

Currently, due to incremental compromise, we have mostly junk (food) and sick care (health).

πŸ‘† Food = Whole Foods

*Junk = Everything Else

πŸ‘† Healthcare = Health + Care

*In my book, Gravity: A Voice for Human Health, I propose a new social contract, dividing healthcare into two domains: health and care.

- Health emphasizes all upstream, personalized preventive health and wellness as the proactive driver of prevention.

- Care focuses on downstream, professional treatment, responding reactively to illness.

The FDA knows exactly what to do.

Will they do it?
