The topic of health care in America is probably one of the most heated debates in many decades. The country seems to be pretty much divided as to which side of this issue they are on. As one who has worked in nutrition and alternative medicine for over 30 years, I see one issue that has been only briefly mentioned. Regardless of which viewpoint you hold or which program ultimately comes from this issue, any program will fail sooner or later due to the gross economic burdens, which will increase with each passing year. If we do not factor in the one concept that has been missing from this discussion, namely prevention, any program will be doomed to fail. The Obama Health Care Plan as it has been called, leans toward a Government run health insurance program for those who cannot afford private insurance, yet with the Obama Health Care Plan, if prevention is not promoted and in fact demanded, the costs could be unaffordable. Any program, no matter what it is called, be it the Obama Health Care Plan, the Bailout Health Care, Health Care Reform, or Universal Health Care, will have to have strong emphasis upon prevention in order for it to be effective. Preventing illness can save trillions of dollars over the next few years alone. Consider that obesity is responsible for dozens and dozens of health problems, most of which could be prevented by proper weight management programs. As an example, the fear of the flu virus or the H1N1 virus. If we teach people to live a healthier lifestyle, they would have the strength of their immune system to ward off such viruses much more often, cutting costs of treatment. In this heated argument where people are putting their emphasis and energies on tea party demonstrations and forming groups like the HAARM or the Healthy Americans Against Reforming Medicine, all of which have their place, we should be placing equal emphasis on demanding more programs that are aimed at preventing health problems instead of solely on how we will treat these disorders. No system can hope to survive financially unless prevention of the thousands of medical incidences are at the core. Consider such factors as obesity, cigarette smoking, lack of exercise, poor diet, and a lack of dietary supplements. Each of these factors could be relatively easily addressed. Instead we are focusing on health care bailouts, Health Care Reform, or Universal Health Care instead of the real health care program of prevention. Town hall health care meetings and health care debates will only go so far. No matter what the outcome, if prevention is not at the core of the program, any program, it surely will fail. Whether you subscribe to saving health care through universal health care, through private insurance programs, or perhaps a combination of both, we are still going to have to face the fact that unless we learn to change our lifestyles to prevention based concept, the costs will continue out of reach. Even government sponsored health care plans may not be able to afford the rising costs of health care in America. Consider that obesity is the cause of so many preventable diseases including type II diabetes, the most epidemic disease in America. Prescription drug costs are out of control with drug companies making billions more in profits each year more than at any time in history. Sadly, the majority of people are taking at least some drugs that they dont need. Our senor citizens are the most at risk as they are often taking 10 or more powerful prescription drugs at any one time, leaving them feeling less than well. Not only is this a disservice to the client, the costs of maintaining this drugging of our citizens is astronomical. By following simple concepts of prevention such as learning to eat better, saving junk foods for treats instead of the staple of the diet, exercising at least 3 days a week, and taking a Full Spectrum supplement providing the 100+ nutrients the body needs on a daily basis, could save any health care system trillions of dollars over the next decade alone. Health care reform must start from the inside. Our system of health care is based upon breakage and repair. In order for the medical system to survive they must have a regular influx of patients with treatable diseases or disorders.
