“You can shear a sheep many times
…but you can only skin him once.”
—Mike McDermott, Rounders
You don’t have to be a statistic.
Metabolic-syndrome is affecting our generation like the plague…
One gander out at our society of peers, and in one-word here’s what you’ll notice:
Continuity.
It’s INSANE: In the last two-decades, the number of prescriptions filled for American adults and children rose 85 percent; from 2.4 billion to 4.5 billion a year! *According to the health research firm Quintile IMS.
And according to the Mayo Clinic; “Nearly 70 percent of Americans are on at least one prescription drug, and more than half take at least two or more.”
Is that not astounding?
7-out-of-10 People You Know!
A system producing new heart-attacks every 30-seconds, 35,000 new Cancer diagnosis DAILY according to the American Institute for Cancer Research), and over 400 million people living with Diabetes - according to The International Diabetes Federation.
(*Does not include many other common chronic conditions over 70% of the population are affected with, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.)
And it’s clearly getting worse…
The Washington Post recently published a report by National Center for Health Statistics titled:
"U.S. Life Expectancy Declines For First‑Time Since 1993!”
What’s also important to realize is these fallen-folks aren’t making it out of life, without first paying an obscene “death-tax” to the system.
Most of these patients are actually profited off of for DECADES!
Their health-problems are “the gift that keeps on giving…”
That’s why we call it chronic-disease. Because it’s usually long and SLOW.
Sure, everyone has different genetic breakdown-points and susceptibilities.
But here’s the thing; It doesn’t matter “which particular condition” someone has…
Because these diseases are all children of — a breakdown in metabolic function.
…That’s How They Cook-Your-Goose!
Imagine the world’s most widespread airborne-virus…
Like an outbreak, it circulates up-the-nose of every single person you know.
Except there’s a few problems:
Most symptoms come on slow… and each person experiences different symptoms.
Medicals tests commonly reveal there is clearly something wrong, but none of these tests are “linking” any of these sick folks - together, as a unit.
Because this outbreak, this obvioius unquestionable epidemic, wears many different masks.
It’s name? Metabolic-disease.
This is How they Get You.
Metabolic-stressors, just like the plague or super-viruses, infiltrate our biology in mass.
They can be found everywhere in our environment at this point… our water. Our food. Our dentistry. Our prescriptions. Our househould items… Our wireless-technology. Furniture we lay on or items we sleep on. Even in the air we breathe.
Metabolic-stress can even be inflicted by our own emotions!
That’s right. A byproduct of our own prideful existance.
And as a result to all this… We’re all fighting a viral-outbreak that can’t be killed.
Because it’s not a virus.
