The Silent Pandemics 1. We don't eat real food. 2. We don't exercise. 3. We sit at desks and then come home to sit on couches. 4. We numb our emotions with food, drugs & alcohol, which makes the emotions come back even worse. 5. We decided that the sun is dangerous for our health. 6. We don't allow ourselves to be bored anymore. 7. We created a pill for every ill. 8. We've decided that being entertained is more important than living. 9. We have a constant connection to our devices but no connection to ourselves & our communities. 10. We eat too many calories but not enough nutrition. 11. Testosterone levels are declining and some people think that’s a good thing. 12. Some scientists promote sugary cereals to be more nutritious than eggs and beef. 13. We believe our feelings are facts. 14. We want to cancel others we disagree with and people who hang around others we disagree with. 15. Pharma companies are second to tech companies in marketing spend to consumers. 16. We trade our sleep for more social media time, which messes up our sleep even more. 17. We are mentally unhealthy because we're physically unhealthy. 18. There's a health food section in the grocery store when it should be where the whole foods are. 19. We get exposed to the extremes on social media and think they are the reality we live in. 20. People watch mainstream news to keep us informed when they’re incentivized to keep us angry & scared. 21. We put focus too much on money & status and not enough on health, family & community. I don't have all the answers but I believe that we can live better lives by doing the opposite of this list. Take action. Be proactive.
