It's Difficult Being Healthy Part 3

I’m going to take issue with our do-nothing Congress and radio and TV news that seems to focus over and over on presidential tweets, pardons, immunity, impeachment and the most important upcoming election in history. It’s obvious that most of our risk factors for Alzheimer’s, CTE, and dementia relate to personal choice. Personal choice is complicated by our greedy capitalistic food, beverage, pesticide and drug cartels. Congress by severely limiting regulation [thank you, lobbyists], has allowed these industries to flourish and make money at the expense of the population at large. It’s difficult to name many foods that haven’t been genetically modified with ingredients that we have difficulty pronouncing, let alone have any insight to knowing what they mean for us. These industries, with Congressional assistance, have taken advantage of the biological characteristics of man, in that they create highly emotional addictions for the bad and hazardous ingredients that contribute to our ill health. It’s no wonder that three quarters of Americans are either overweight or obese. These industries and its representatives along with the congressional assistance are committing crimes against humanity. They are exploitive man made creations.

Non-healthy individuals have problems with exercise and being active. We all know that physical exertion is difficult, with labored breathing and muscle soreness. However, movement It so very important for our mental and physical health. Forget about antiaging and focus on improved physical and mental health. Electronics or the various apps have not made us any healthier. Keep moving or atrophy. As in the Nike commercial, “Just Do it.”

It’s clear that we require hands on” alternative” government, public school and meaningful corporation intervention to create, regulate, and educate about healthy, nutritious foods and diets; proper dietary supplements; realistic movement and exercise programs.  Having strong thumbs may be good for electronics, but does improve anyone’s health. It takes education and professional modeling or personal tutoring to assist in making the changes as too many people are failing on their own.  Perhaps, radio and TV could do more like public TV in displaying good taste, education with professional input in programing.  We need the Greek Goddess Hygiela, Athena and God Ares now.
