I was musing about all the articles on health in the newspapers today.We are probably more healthy than our ancestors.There is more diabetes because THEY CHANGED THE DEFINITION.
Diabetes is not clearly demarcated.. we go from normal blood sugar to high to diabetic.The cut off points are sometimes changed when doctors believe it’s better to treat people who in the past were not regarded as diabetic.
The other aspect is that being anxious about our personal health might be a way of avoiding anxiety about bigger issues in politics and our social world.And the fact that life now may seem meaningless to many people.Religion has its downside but it did give a meaning to life and structure in which to live.But now I am told people who go to church often don’t believe but want to meet people not God.
How my heart sings 
Well I disagree in one way – I think candidiasis is a modern problem because of HFCS – refined sugars and so we are a fed nation but undernourished from malabsorption – with clogged livers and so many people are paying hundreds of dollars on prescriptions – so in my humble opinion (and I have been around many who have healed from the inside out) well the misplaced focus is on treating symptoms instead of root causes to immune suppression and metabolic problems. Over fed but malnourished and adrenal issues and depression are related –
But I know what you mean about some who avoid other issues and maybe have misplaced focus – hmmmmm
It’s hard to know what is right
Well u are right – juts many sides to a complex topic! But life expectancies were lower back in some days so I do see the other sides – 😳🌞
