The only thing the Pharmcutical industry needs to keep raking in their billions of dollars in profits is an endless supply of symptoms. If your were to regain your optimal health, that would drive you out of their business model. An optimally healthy American does NOT fit in their business model.

The U.S. spends more money on health care and yet are ranked below 35 other countries who spend less. In 2007 we spent 16% of our gross national product, that’s over $2.3 trillion on health care, yet we were ranked by the World Health Organization (WHO) as 37^th in the world in health care.
