The national bestseller! "This important, timely book lucidly diagnoses what ails American health care. Prescriptions are thoughtfully offered." -Steve Forbes, former presidential candidate and chairman and editor in chief of Forbes Media Americans are notoriously unhealthy-we eat too much, drink too much, and sit too much. When roughly 80 percent of cardiovascular disease and 40 percent of all cancer cases could be prevented by simple lifestyle changes, it is time to take a deeper look at the problem and ask who is truly responsible. Consider that:
- After seventy years of innovation, heart disease and cancer remain the top two causes of death in the United States.
- In 1960, health care spending was 5 percent of America's GDP; today, it is 17.5 percent.
- The government spends over $1 trillion annually onhealth care.
- Nearly one in five American deaths is associated with poor diets.
- Simply reducing sodium intake by 1,200 mg per day could save up to $20 billion a year in medical costs.
