Welcome to the chronic disease epidemic vicious circle: US ranks first on doctors explaining healthy diet, exercise, and lifestyle, but then US ranks LAST on Healthy Lives (mortality amenable to medical care, infant mortality and healthy life expectancy at age 60) which likely explains the epidemic of chronic illness shown on the below slide. You should know: 1. The preventative healthy diet, exercise, and lifestyle advice your doctor is giving you IS NOT working for most of us (see Biomes Chronic Disease Epidemic slide). 2. Your doctor relies on top scientific journals that 2013s Nobel Prize winner, physiology or medicine, Randy Schekman - a US biologist, says his lab will boycott and no longer send papers to (Nature, Cell and Science) as they distort the scientific process which encourages researchers to cut corners and pursue trendy fields of science. theguardian/science/2013/dec/09/nobel-winner-boycott-science-journals And that, according to the 2014 Update, Mirror Mirror on the Wall, How the Performance of the US Healthcare System Compares Internationally, June 2014, commonwealthfund.org/~/media/files/publications/fund-report/2014/jun/1755_davis_mirror_mirror_2014.pdf : 3. Your primary care doctor (most people dont have such) rarely receives the labs/reports from the specialists they send you to (Exhibit 4C). 4. Lab and diagnostic results are often incorrect, and patients often receive the wrong meds or dose at the pharmacy or hospital (Exhibit 4B, ranking is 8 and 9 where 11 is the worst). 5. Your doctor spends most of their time trying to get insurance coverage for RXXs and treatment (Exhibit 6), 6. US historical rank trending is: 2005-5th, 2006 and 2007-6th, 2010-7th, 2014-11th (aka LAST). What to do?
