Chronic illness is the new first-world problem.
Why anyone would be surprised that Americans are sick is a wonder to me. Our food is filth. Live stock pumped full of growth hormone, antibiotics and forced to eat junk they were never meant to eat living out their lives in squalor knee deep in excrement.
Our produce is loaded with insecticide which we then ingest. GMOs fill our supermarkets along with packaged foods loaded with foreign ingredients that cause health problems
All this drives people to Dr. that pump you full of pharmaceuticals that mask symptoms but never cure you. Americans have become cash cows. WAKE UP AMERICA . Buy your food from farmer mkts. Learn to cook, Don't buy pkg food it's loaded with unhealthy ingredients
