🤯 As a whole, Americans are chronically unhealthy. It seems the deck is stacked against us! Our food source is wacked and our health system is dysfunctional; the incentives are all wrong. I realize, the last two sentences are probably not a surprise to many of us. 

I would like to introduce a couple of brave souls, Casey and Calley Means, who are taking on the powers that be. Here is an article written about them, a podcast interview, and their book Good Energy.

The good news is they provide an outline on how to quickly turn things around. 

One quick pearl of wisdom was that Alzheimer’s can be prevented with the proper diet/lifestyle. They noted Dr. Dale E. Bredesen and his book The End of Alzheimer’s. 

Casey and Calley also communicate that we can significantly reduce the epidemics of childhood obesity and infertility. 

I hope they can convince the right people that we have to make positive change. We can do better!
