Obesity is the Government's Business-Intelligence Squared U.S.
With 33% of adults and 17% of children obese, the U.S. is facing an obesity epidemic. A major risk factor for expensive, chronic conditions like heart disease, ...
People tend to personalize this issue. But in the end it is a social issue
because obesity impacts health and those people will drive healcare costs
up. All of us are going to end up paying for this obesity epidemic in
rising diabetes, heart attacks, cholesterol, etc...
Apparently you don't understand the difference between an issue being social or personal from an inherent philosophical perspective, versus what Congress has deemed it. For example, if Congress passes a law declaring wet to be dry, does that make it so? How about declaring that Earth's gravitational constant is 8.13 m/s^2 instead of 9.81 m/s^2? How about if it calls a law that results in deforestation a pro-environmental act?The only reason why healthcare issues like getting "seriously ill" or "obesity" are PERCEIVED (by persons like you) to be social...is because Congress has declared that they are, and hence, built laws around this belief. THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THEY ACTUALLY ARE.Please get your head out of the sand.
Wrong. If you get seriously ill, society is involved in your care....please get your head out of the sand. MOrbily obese people cost society a lot over their lifetimes....
+Will Hart It IS a personal issue. Because deciding to take good physical care of your body (or not) is as much a personal choice as deciding whether or not to smoke, brush your teeth, or drink excessively.The only reason why obesity is perceived to be more of a social issue than it really is is because the government has already become heavily involved in healthcare (even before the passage of Obamacare).
No government equals no research. No research equals no medical advances
(or any advances for that matter). No Institute of Medicine, National
Institute of Health, Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, American College
of Sports Medicine, or any major research body that is funded by the
government.
I had a major issue listening to that weasel lawyer Paul Campos as he says
we are all just supposed to get sick and start dying when we hit our 40's
and 50's, as if it is just "natural" for us to start getting sick when we
hit 40 years old. Jack LaLanne lived to be 96 years old. He remained
physically active and ate nutritious foods his entire life. In his 70's he
did things that the strongest men on earth couldn't even dream of doing
today. Tony Horton is another great example of a fitness guy who doesn't
let age keep him down (he is 56 about to be 57 and is still doing crazy
workouts along with eating whole, nutritious foods). To say exercise and
nutrition doesn't make a difference is what is moronic. BTW, Paul, haven't
you noticed the research that shows that cardiovascular disease can
actually begin to develop in KIDS WHO ARE 5 YEARS OF AGE? What about Type
II Diabetes? Why are kids who aren't even teenagers yet developing
diabetes? In the 80's, it was totally unheard of, and now, it is becoming
widespread.
To say that there is no research showing how eating nutritious food and
exercising on a regular basis improves overall health is irresponsible.
Tell my clients who lose between 30 and 50 lbs this. Tell my clients who
are reducing their insulin and who are COMPLETELY coming off of their blood
pressure medicine that exercising and nutrition isn't the answer. Paul kept
shouting "weight loss weight loss weight loss!!!" and I'm saying "lack of
disease you freaking idiot!" Paul Campos came off as a typical lawyer in
this debate - totally uneducated about anything, and basically swerves
people into thinking like he does, which is incorrect.
Government needs to be involved, but as I have mentioned on other posts -
instead of having people like Paul Campos who know NOTHING about the health
field trying to develop these programs, let's the the guys who went to
school have a say in these programs. Let's hire the dietitians, exercise
physiologists, pediatricians, medical doctors to tell the government what's
working and what's not working. Again, as Dr. Satcher said - working
TOGETHER is what we need to solve this crisis in America.
+Эдуард Хиль This person is insolent to the millions of people who have been let down by government failures. He's an example of a typical academic that has an agenda first-then seeks fact to make his agenda true. He's the weasel. As I said above, he is NOT concerned with the likelihood that the government would simply fail and waste our money trying since he lives in an alternate reality where others would pay for his nativity. Governments made of people ARE NOT better than those people.
The only way government can operate, is by theft. Government doesn't do anything productive. All it does is transfer money from one group to another while keeping big part of it as the paycheck.
The government said stay out of the sun. Resulting vitamin D deficiency
epidemic.
The government said eat margarine not butter. Hydrogenated oil and
transfats are very bad.
Fat is worse than carbs. Obesity and diabetes sky rockets.
The government said fish has mercury. It also has omega-3.
Pizza is a vegetable?
Subsidizing corn and therefore corn syrup.
Very long history of misinformation. Science eventually catches up, but if
policy is mandated on bad science should we trust our health to it?
Bad neighborhoods is basically resulted in our nation's health crisis is
what I got from this debate. It sounds like select neighborhood
restructuring investments is in order. I doubt the government really wants
to invest in poor people. Why do that when you can just make the government
billions of dollars larger? It sounds like they've purposely misstated the
mission for their own advantage. Seemingly good but always very
questionable intentions.
+Inorganic Vegan I know there's a debate about whether corn syrup is really that bad. I haven't followed it honestly. In the SAD though corn syrup is in all packaged foods and excessive amounts as found in the SAD exhausts the pancreas as I understand. My main point is that the government always advocates against what is healthy. I don't know if that's an accident or not. Recently a vitamin D definiciency epidemic has been brought to light, and Harvard did a study to show that over a period of 4 years regular supplementation of vitamin D resulted in a 75 percent decrease in breast cancer risk. The sun is mainly where we get our vitamin D and there have been constant skin cancer scares that I think weren't founded in reality. There was no epidemic of skin cancer (not from sun, tanning beds maybe) but there is now a cancer epidemic that could have been helped greatly if we would have had more vitamin D.
What's wrong with carbs and corn syrup? Corn syrup is just glucose and fructose without the bond, I.e, table sugar as soon as it touches your saliva.

The Aetiology of Obesity Part 2 of 6: The New Science of Diabesity
Http://intensivedietarymanagement.com What is the role of insulin resistance and meal timing? Also how hormonal obesity theory explains the epidemiology of ...
Watching this, I can't help but wonder is low GI carbs are bad, and if
eating one serving of high GI carb (sugar, honey) might be a good idea to
fight insulin resistance. Since your theory has it ha eating more often
means that insulin stays high, but that is what low GI foods do. So maybe a
once a day perhaps after dinner (desert, or a honey concoction) taken
before bed might actually be better especially if you reduce all but the
lowest carb veggies.
Terrific series , thanks Jason, this is so much more than what a
documentary provides. Interesting that in the U.S. the rise in obesity in
pets , glad you took time to address the farm subsidies and that the food
important for us is getting very little to no subsidies. Insulin/insulin
resistance leads to fat gain makes sense.
If government really cared about the health of its natural citizens instead
of just its corporate ones, it would eliminate all corporate welfare
subsidies. Then it will be cheaper to buy the locally produced fresh foods.
And everyone will be healthier. Including the military forces.
Thanks Eddyabby. I'm glad you are enjoying the series. I agree with you
completely. Interesting how we are always looking for the real culprit
behind obesity, and it turns out to be the farm subsidies and government
sanctioned dietary advice.
Dr. Joel Wallach on Diabetes, Cancer, Arthritis, Obesity, Alzheimer, & more! - Youngevity
//www.colaorganicsolutions.youngevity.com/ Dr. Joel Wallach (Founder of Youngevity) covers how to address Arthritis, High Blood Pressure, Diabetes, ...
Dr. Wallach, with all due respect, the TRUE blue Naturopaths would disagree
with your assessment on conditions caused by "nutrient deficiencies".
Rather, all diseases come from the inability to absorb nutrients due to a
build up of acid wastes due to an acid producing diet the body is not
designed to digest including cooked foods; meat; dairy; poultry; fish;
legumes; grains, eggs. The HEALING alkaline diet should consist of
primarily raw fruit and some leafy greens and a few nuts and seeds -- even
for diabetics who CAN get rid of their diabetes including Type 1 diabetes.
You said on "Coast to Coast AM" it was "impossible" to get rid of Type 1
and it is NOT impossible. People do it every day. There are MANY in the raw
food movement doing it. Look into Dr Gabriel Cousins or Dr. Robert Morse.
Also TRUE naturopaths prefer whole herbs as grown in Nature which the body
can easily recognize and use - NOT isolate supplements.
Is your wife eating an all raw primarily water rich fruit diet? Lots of people have gotten rid of a lot of what the medical profession calls "disease" faster that way. Tell her to watch "There is no such thing as diseases. It is acid damage" on YouTube. Dr. Robert Morse who has doctorates in biochemistry and naturopathic medicine and has practiced for 40 years helping people get rid of their "diseases". The whole thing is pretty simple. We need to get rid of the toxic wastes from all the years of eating mucus causing animal products and dead cooked foods and legumes and grains which clog us up before we really can restore our health. Adding in man made isolate supplements on top of years of toxic sludge build up won't make it magically go away forever. It is a short term band-aid at best.
I'll take my chances with dr wallachs healthy start pack for a view months so your body can heal then you can just cruse with his regular 90 and plant derived minerals. My wife actually got of here lupus pills after 3 weeks of taking them.
Also as I did my research on my wife's lupus condition I figured out that she was nutritionally deficient in Vitamins and minerals even before I found dr wallach. The info is out there just got to look. We went to arthritis dr and all they do is reduce your pain. The last thing he did after almost a year going is give her what..........vitamin D.....hmmmmmm I wonder why that is. Dr really don't give a shit about you all they want is for you to keep coming to the office so they can jack your insurance. Why heal you within a couple of natural vitamins and minerals that actually can cure you for a couple of hundred bucks. when they can keep you coming for years to make hundreds of thousands of dollars of you. Who's the real crook here wallach or actual Drs.
So where do you expect to get your vitamins and minerals from because scientific research shows that your body does not produce them. The only thing that your body produces is vitamin D and that's only when you expose yourself to some sunlight. Vitamin K can also be produced by your gut but very little. So I don't think most people are going to get there daily does of dr wallachs 90 vitamins, minerals and amino acid from food alone because you just can't. You it makes sense to supplement and find the best aborning as well. Long story short I did a lot of research myself for the past 5 years because of my wife lupus condition and I do need to say it all comes down to eating right and supplementing. The foods that you yourself eat is probly ok but not enough for the body to heal itself of any ailments you might get. Do your homework a little and you'll figure out why. Wallachs was actually sued by the FDA 8 times and wallach won all 8 times. That might say a lot. This is Just my opinion.
Dr. Wallach is pure EVIL. YOUR PYRAMID SCHEME VITAMIN EMPIRE IS OVERPRICED
AND PEOPLE ARE DYING RIGHT NOW. KIDS HAVE AUTISM AND YOU CLAIM TO HAVE A
CURE, YET IT'S UNAFFORDABLE.
My dad is currently dying in the most horrific way from diabetes. THIS
JACK A$$ CLAIMS HE KNOWS THE RIGHT CURE BUT HE WON'T JUST TELL PEOPLE AND
PUBLICIZE WHAT THAT IS. MILLIONS HAVE DIED OR ARE LIVING IN HELL INCLUDING
MY DAD WHICH HAS DESTROYED MY MOM'S LIFE AND THIS GUY JUST PEDDLES HIS
HUGELY EXPENSIVE, UNAFFORDABLE "PYRAMID SCHEME" VITAMIN EMPIRE INSTEAD OF
JUST HELPING PEOPLE.
+Brigitta A Shandoz and what does lazy man have on dr Wallach that's done over 20,000 autopsys who's 76 and hasn't seen a doctor in 68 yrs hes has over 40 yr experience in nutrition a veteran and a physician all you need to know is that these same minerals are used to cure diseases in animals ok. so take your deceiving ass outa here
Yes, I had taken TT , no it was published in FDA web site sometime ago..it was big in journal as well...I promised..you..it won't do me anything for telling rubbish..it was public knowledge....
+Brigitta A Shandoz HAAHAHAHAAHAH~!!!! I know Dr. Wallach personally and you're telling me he lost? You're a true idiot because he sued the FDA 8 times and won 7.5. I think it's 9 times now and won that one. Where are you getting this information from? I know everything there is to know about Dr. Wallach because he is my true inspiration. And for an 18 year old, I do more research in Youngevity everyday because my goal is to end pain and suffering.Whoever actually believes you can be my guests because I am here defending Dr. Wallach's teaching because they are TRUE. Brigitta, have you taken the product? Thought so, so I would shut up, closed minded conformist.
+Brigitta A Shandoz Please read at the bottom of the page on that website, it says that certain companies endorse him. He doesn't know a thing about nutrition and his wife is a pharmacist. Most importantly he never tried the products himself. Anybody who posts comments on that page, he can select which ones he replies to/posts, so pretty much makes it seem like he can't lose an argument with Youngevity.Trust me, TRY THE PRODUCT. 30 days risk free won't hurt you. If not, have fun managing your diseases for the rest of your life and let the MD's bankrupt you.
+April Robertson If you would like to get started I can personally help you get started or you can contact Youngevity directly, which I cannot find the number at the time. Let me know!
+Kilisitina Bloomfield when I first discovered the products I was SD on them. I was so excited I wanted to be a seller. I even convinced a store owner to take them for her condition but I could not sell them to her because I searched and searched and have been unsucesful in finding someone to help me get started. She sence then has started taking them she four d a seller through talking g with customers and she is doing much better. He husband also had a large cancer on his face and it has now shrunk to about the size of a penny when it covered his nose and half of side of face in the beginning. He says that customers notice a difference in his demeanor and looks. How do I first d someone to help me get started?
+vauxhaull coupe we need to be clear that you are speaking if type 2 diabetes. I have looked through so many of his video and only heard a reference to type 1 once but he never concluded it would cure it. Only type 2 is cited with the help of his products. If you need help with type 1 look at Dr. Morse on you tube you can also cure, reverse, even get people out of wheelchairs after years by following his advice. He is a biochemist and a naturopath and a couple other titles. He truly has the answers for health and regeneration of the body
+canthemum please stop, everything in the world cost money. If you did not have medical insurance you would be bitching about the doctor bill and meds which is extremely higher than his products that work. See that's the trap they force you to pay for Insurance as if that is the only way to go so your money is tied up there and not able to spend it where you need it for true healings. The problem is not his product it is that your money is sucked out to pay for things that don't work and it is mandated to go there. Hey we as the people have to keep the powerhouses wealthy right? Yes that is right until we the People realize what the hell is really going on and do something about it. Peace
+canthemum diabetes is cured with 2 -14 days and once you loose weight you only need one pack if that just simply take the 90 essential nutrients like tangy tangerine and obviously chromium and vanadium after diabetes ect is gone. or just staying away from the bad foods alone will bring longevity.you should really do the research and study's on vitamins and minerals and how animals neeed them.
+Brigitta A Shandoz oh Jesus...if God forbid someone in my family had cancer, definitely, I WOULD NOT TAKE THEM TO GET CHEMO. are you crazy. As much info you think you have about nutrition, which seems to be the basic amount everyone has, you should look at the studies that show the percent of people successfully live through CHEMO. Please don't say that chemo is the answer. If so we must agree to disagree. If God forbid that would happen I would hope to have the means to afford one of the many proven cures that are not allowed to be publically advertised due to " their" fear if losing money if people find out they can be cured with some damn seeds or some cannabis oil. Please look into this just in case this happens to someone in your family.
How about we don't sell drugs that don't work better than diet changes. Pharmaceutical drugs are the very definition of quackery. Trillions of dollars for drugs that cause more harm than good.
+Joe Monroe - Hence the the the pharma and the drugs rep or the MD/doctor always advice the patients to first choose to change their life style,,but somehow it is very difficult for us human to do so, we like to drink, smoke, enjoy life even though we know it could kill us earlier..the drugs can help to suppress the pain or to reduce high blood pressure or reduce cholesterol while they change their life style temporary use of drugs or temporary using supplements are ok, but once you have to keep taking it..that when there will be side effect to it..just remember..God create our body to heal it self..the pharma companies have to be very unbiased and disclose every thing the side effect etc..etc, they spent millions to do clinical trial..they have to get the money back from somewhere..however lots people who suffer from cancer being treated by hospital through the pharmaceutical technology as well as heart diseases , we have to be open minded about health and science,, my husband got cancer..we tried with natural products it was go anywhere..thank GOD for the hospital and technology he got save by the chemo..he changed his life style now so touch wood everything would be fine..I would not rely on supplements for the love one..that is why..it would be better to use it only to jump start..then stop it..once your life can go back to normal again, if people said that youngevity can cure cancer well come to it..I personally would not risk my love one just to rely on youngevity alike without taking them to hospital or specialist would you???
+Brigitta A Shandoz I agree that we don't need overpriced youngevity products. I have seen many people die from chemo/surgery/drugs. And I have seen those who went the natural route for heart failure, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc. The natural route works if you get the right diet. Everyone who went with mainstream medicine got worse or died. Drugs cause more problems than they supposedly help. That's a fact on those drug inserts.
+April Robertson Sorry, in any medication that prescribed by the MD, in the SMPC (Leaflets) it stated what the medicine for...because it had been tested on clinical trial by 2000 up to 40 to 50.000 human being and the result of it..hence they are able to stated and also writen..on the other hand I tried youngevity drug because my best friend bought it for me..but it does nothing...think about it April..Jacky Collin just died of Cancer..she is very wealthy..so does lots of american and people in your country who are very very wealthy..they do not want to die young..they would like to be healthy..why would they still go to the MD..I am not saying youngevity products are rubbish..they put so much (too pricey) for what it is..due to the MLM expenses..on the other hand..vitamins unable to cure cancer..otherwise all over the world people will take it and there will be cancer no more , as far as diabetes, hypertension, Cardio vascular disease, every one in this planet know you do not need youngevity or supplements to do that..as long as they change their life style, by eating a proper food, such as: anything fresh..(not process, less fried food, junk food, fast food) drink plenty of fluid, exercise, stop consuming alcohol, smoking , stop drinking anything with soda, reducing the intake of food with nitrate and MSG..they will be find..the problem is people just don't that..hence they have lots of trouble.look at the people in Japan and in a part of Indonesia...they live such a long life...without youngevity..do you know why?..it is their life style.. I study nutrition and I have science background..so be broad minded...we are so lucky that we live in an advance technology ..we have a great hospital..just behonest with your self..if you or your family have been diagnosed seriously ill, you are not going to take them to the MD or hospital.....say (GOD forbid) you have got cancer..you are not going to have chemo...you believe that youngevity will cure it............?????????????????????????????????
I agree with you Joe.if people are eating the right thing, drinking plenty of fluid, reducing the intake of alcohol and smoking as well as doing at least 15 -20 minutes exercises each day..they won't be needing spending MLM supplements they can just buy from centrum (if they have difficiency in any vitamin)
+Brigitta A Shandoz I thought that everyone knew this already but I guess not, the reason that anyone that finds any kind of cure or relief from a disease that the medical establishment is just dragging people on and on with is because they will more than likely be murdered. It is illegal to print that you can cure something even if you can. Yes eating a diet full of nutrients sounds like the same as taking the product. It is just easier to take a small dose of products each day rather than the amount of food you would have to buy to get the same nutrients. In the end it will probably cost about the same for what it seems to me. I get it though people get mad when they need something and cant afford it. One thing to remember is that if you want it bad enough you will figure out a way to get it. Rearrange your finances or something. get a part time job? your health is everything.
+canthemum listen, you sound very stupid. I am sorry if I can not refrain myself. If you have read these books and have all this info on his product then you would know that the cure is the product and the ingredients in the product are spoken out load several times on every lecture he does. Good GOD. If you truely want to help someone in your family you will find a way to get the product. sacrifice something if you have to. maybe let your car payment go and nurse your family back to health. whatever it takes right. or just stand by knowing there is a way and just watch the doctors that you use keep giving more meds that arent going to do a damn thing except reduce symptoms. NEVER CURE ANYTHING. you have alot to learn about this system for you to not know about the medical system that is in place at this time. Please figure a way to get the product and help your father.
+canthemum BIG L.O.L at the end of the day he is only interested in his own empire..common..if his products really can cure there is no need to put in the small bit at the bottom of this leaflet...that this that guarantee to treat...to cure..ya ..di..ya..and ..only for education only...there are lots of rich people around the world..is their products is really can cure and treat people than would you not think people like Leonard Nimroy, Michael J Fox..., all of important people will buy it and save them from cancer or diseases that killed them... the bottom line is : every one should change their lifestyle by eating healthy diet..reduction in gluten , fried food, junk food, processed food, MSG, if possible have organic Fruit and Vegs, drinks plenty of waters (min 2 litres a day) try to do 20 - 30 min exercise each day..then stop smoking/alcohol then people can be healthier... but if they already ill..helping to detoxing would be good...Dr Wallach product is good..but you can buy in other company as well... do not forget they have to pay to have pyramid system..of course its become expensive.but Dr Wallach's product can't guarantee curing...I was given a present..and I will not buy it for my self...as i don't see any different...but every one is different, so don't be blinded by other people experiences...the best thing to do is keep following your gut..and animal and human also have different anatomy. I have different condition and I have email and asked this organisation so many times if they can advised me what products should I buy, but they have realized that my condition can't be helped by their products so they never bother even to notify me, well in this case..at least they are honest enough...not to bother to answer or lying about it......so Canthemum, dont be annoyed ..you should be thanked that you can't afford to buy hiss products because you are not being targeted to be scummed.
How can anybody afford 500 dollars worth of vitamins a month for a few people!You don't know me if you're calling me unedcuated and I've got tons of material and books by Dr. Wallach. If Dr. Wallach is a world class authority recognized by Mutual of Omaha and the Smithsonian why isn't there a single Wikipedia entry on him or anyone in this organization?If there's a cure for autism and diabetes, tens of millions of babies, kids and older sick people do need it now including most of my family. His vitamins are totally unaffordable! Why do that when there's so much suffering and his own supposed research shows the POOREST countries can be the most long-lived!! Why make cures beyond the reach of the majority of suffering people?If you could use simple wood ash to alleviate a lot of disease, he could sell wood ash to at least help some people get the basic minerals. There IS a way to sell vitamins in the appropriate dosages on websites including Amazon IF he wanted to in a way that would be affordable.We don't need to actually change the entire medical industry to have basic vitamins if the poorest people on Earth can do it. For some reason, he doesn't want poor or middle income people to have access to health. I think that is diabolical and I'll soon have a dead father and still will have a child who cannot speak to show for it. He's devillish if he has the means to help them but won't for a buck.
+canthemum Oh no! Another uneducated person putting their closed minded opinions out there. You obviously sound like a person who has not done research on Youngevity or Dr Wallach alone. There is too much information to spew out in this reply to your ridiculous comment.Instead of embarrassing yourself and informing people that what Dr. Wallach says is untrue, please give us some background information on why?I see that your dad does have Diabetes and is suffering terribly, which I am sorry for, but Youngevity has reversed Diabetes more times that I can count. I am only 17 and know this works because I have seen it with my own eyes. I recommend if you want to save your dad, take the product. If not, continue to take advise from a medical doctor and buy a casket soon.IF you think about it, we DO NOT have a free medical market. There is no way that pharmacists and the FDA will allow us to publish his information. If you didn't know, he discovered the first case of Cystic Fibrosis in a Rhesus Monkey and was fired from it. He proved there is no such thing as genetic disease and has much more discoveries!Please please please educate yourself. Like Dr. Glidden says, "Lack of knowledge is killing our people." and is true by the means of this comment.Like I said before, there is too much information on how I can refute against what you are saying and there are probably questions I have not covered... PLEASE, again, EDUCATE YOURSELF!!! I'm not trying to be rude because I also wish the best upon you and your family and pray for them, but it is tiring seeing people like you say what you have to say when I KNOW Youngevity is true and have been taking his product since I was 2 years old, lucky me who never has been sick. My mom has been with the business for 18 years now. All in all, if this product doesn't work, I would be replying to this comment and many others that are similar.Also, with the pyramid scheme... This is not a pyramid scheme! I would inform you more about it, but at this point there is no point to inform you. Let me say that I make more than a lot of people with degrees and in their profession by being a distributor and I have also built a lot of people's business with Youngevity a long with mine because everyone benefits from Youngevity as a whole, financially and health wise.The secret is that this product works. :)We all need to gain a little commom sense.
+canthemum type 1 or type 2 diabetes ? no cure for type 1. type 2 chromium and vanadium supplements asap. 90 essentials drink cost 42.00 per month, not that much $$. don't become a distributor just buy the products, start with healthy start pak at 120.00 well worth it... Dr. wallach is not evil, you're just misinformed or just plain dumb...good luck
