Food, Fitness, Finesse & Fun By Jeff Carter, PT At The United For Healthcare Summit 2022
America is in a healthcare crisis. In 2019, the USA spent $3.8 Trillion in healthcare ($11,582 per capita) and Type 2 DM = $327 Billion in 2017 and $380 Billion in 2021! Add in lost production of $90 Billion from Type 2 DM, and the total cost in 2021 = a whopping $470 Billion. Americans are sicker and fatter than ever. It is projected for the first time in history that the youth of today will live shorter and be poorer than their parents. Americans consume an enormous amount of highly processed food and sugar and it is killing us through death by 1000 cuts! The “Disease Management System” and our education system have failed. We live in a world of mega information overload regarding diet, exercise, and fitness. There are so many new diets and fitness programs hitting the web on a regular basis. Though there has been a great rise in fitness studios and the use of personal trainers, the crisis is still growing. Healthcare providers need to step up and be informed, practice healthy lifestyles themselves and teach others how to do it themselves!
