SURGE in THIS Deadly Disease SLAMS America
Despite all the modern medical advances, the United States STILL has abysmal health statistics.
We don’t just miss out on making the top 10 list of healthiest countries in the world…
Incredibly, we don’t even make the top 25.
According to the Bloomberg Global Health Index, the U.S. is number 34.
The ranking is based on measures like average life expectancy, causes of death, and health risks like obesity, hypertension, and tobacco use.
I suspect one BIG reason America places so low is because of an alarming increase in a particular type of disease…
Digestive diseases are surging worldwide, including right here in the United States.
In the past 20 years, there’s been what researchers called a “worrying increase” in digestive conditions like chronic liver disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease, pancreatitis, and gastritis.
Even worse, the number of folks dying from these conditions is rising too.
Worldwide gastrointestinal cancers alone are responsible for 1 in 4 cancer cases and 1 in 3 cancer deaths.
The worst part is that we’re doing this to ourselves.
Modern lifestyle factors like excessive alcohol use and obesity are the prime contributors to the increase in liver, pancreatic, and colorectal cancers.
Chronic stress and the standard Western diet that’s high in added sugars, vegetable oils, and processed foods aren’t doing us any favors, either. And the herbicides and pesticides sprayed on imported out-of-season crops likely play a role too.
The US healthcare system isn’t designed to handle the burden. It tries to put Humpty Dumpty back together. Sometimes it succeeds, but most of the time, it does shoddy patchwork that…
1) Doesn’t fix the underlying problem, and
2) Creates MORE problems in the process.
The reality is YOU are the only one who can keep yourself healthy, my friend. The best way to do that is to steer clear of the “healthcare” system as much as possible by staying healthy.
Our advanced healthcare system clearly isn’t making the US as a whole any healthier.
There are countless factors involved in a healthy lifestyle. But if you want to avoid the digestive diseases that are “worrying” researchers start by not overindulging in alcohol, staying active, reducing stress levels, eating produce when it’s in season, and getting your weight under control.
P.S. Scientists say chronic anxiety likely contributes to the rise in gastrointestinal diseases. But this trick can help MELT Your Stress AWAY in just 10 minutes flat.
