The Loss of Life Expectancy
For the first time since 1993 the life expectancy in the Untited States has dropped. Why would Americans be losing life span instead of gaining because of technology and further advancements in medicine?
The answer is within these key words: natural, organic, non-GMO, gluten free, vegan, ayurvedic, unprocessed, raw, and other hippy marketing definitions.
People are trusting health care professionals and medicine less and reaching out to eastern and naturopathic remedies for their healthcare.
Most of these diets and health care choices are from historical known practices. Unfortunately this is also when the life expectancy was around 45 years old rather than 78.
The problem is that at one time, and this is a side effect of free market, doctors were endorsing cigarettes. This is the very definition of a. If company using money to lead the public in a dishonest direction.
The other problem is the internet. It now gives the people a false sense of knowledge. Someone posted on my Facebook page as a joke, but the article wasn’t a joke, that ginger is 10,000 times more powerful than chemo, and it only targets cancer cells. The problem is that it is total horse shit, but people believe it.
Fact: I love ginger and eat a lot of ginger in my life. Still had cancer.
So this is why our life span is now shortening. We are now getting too dumb to survive. We are killing ourselves with unsound advice and being treated by unprofessional amateurs. People are treating their selves with a dose of internet and a crazy neighbor lady’s recommendation for turmeric bathsalt bong hits.
So now I only eat McDonald’s sausage and egg McMuffin because I want to live a long time.
