We cannot sustain a sick care health system and must shift to a true health care system where prevention is the cornerstone of medical practice. In my book, A Return to Healing, I present a 5 point plan that could help encourage a health care paradigm. This program includes: Funding exercise programs both nationally and locally and in every academic institution; taxing junk food and subsidizing sustainable agriculture, healthy foods, and certain supplements such as vitamin D and essential fatty acids; funding comparative research that includes CAM research and making it transparent; supporting certain preventive screens; banning DTC ads and supporting healthy lifestyle ads.
