Modern Diseases Could Disrupt Global Economy

In an article from Natural News it is reported that  “Between now and 2030, the aggregate global cost of treating the five most common, non-infectious diseases — cancer, diabetes, heart disease, lung disease, and mental health disorders — will top $47 trillion, according to a new report released by the World Economic Forum (WEF). And experts warn that if nothing is done to curb this escalating healthcare crisis, the global economy will most certainly collapse due to insurmountable financial insolvency.”

The World Economic Forum says these five diseases are responsible for 63% of all global deaths.

“In other words, no economy will be able to survive this approaching doomsday scenario, which is why the world’s current course must change as soon as possible. WEF spokesmen and others commenting on the report highlight increasing taxes on alcohol and cigarettes, and encouraging less consumption of “salt and trans fats,” as a helpful solution for reducing such costs. But such approaches are largely simplistic and do not fully address the root causes of non-communicable disease.

Truth be told, modern society in many industrialized nations is riddled with toxic chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, and pollutants that are wreaking havoc on both environmental and human health. The nature of genetically-modified organisms (GMO) in the food supply, reliance on processed foods as part of the Standard American Diet (SAD), and an overall complacency among many towards exercise, are also some of the primary factors contributing to this modern health crisis.”

These dire warnings support my less catastrophic posts on how to feel better through nutrition and fitness. I might add that my daily intake of digestible clay in liquid form is supposed to cleanse the intestinal tracts of metals, pesticides, and radiation. In other words, digestible clay is one solution to fight the environmental affects you can’t see.

These warnings also reinforce the fact that our modern diet and complacency about exercise have taken us too far away from our connection to nature. Man is an animal and for millions of years, his system through evolution had grown accustomed to natural food and daily labor.

The last few years in geologic time have taken us far afield. Just as we try to raise animals on unnatural foods and in unnatural conditions, we ingest the unhealthy product of these efforts at efficiency and cost reduction.

We don’t consider the cost of getting a new IPhone  or big screen TV because we know we can save money on a corn based diet and factory raised meat. The FDA and monopolized food industry are quickly taking us down the same path as the security industry did in 2008.

Just because you are not paranoid, does not mean that someone is not out to get you.
