Public Health Has Become A Bitter Pill That Is Hard To Swallow

One of the big issues facing the Western World is public health.  Now the issues aren’t quite the same public health issues that are facing developing nations.

Here in Australia, like the UK, America and other developed, wealthy nations we have clean water on tap, we have out of sight processed sewer systems to take away the sewer that might otherwise spread diseases.

And yet we have many preventable diseases.

Last night on the Network TEN News, as a result of recent reports about how much medicines people were taking they asked Sydneysiders and doctors if they thought Australians were using too many medications.

What was interesting was the AMA lumped food supplements, you know things like fish oil in with prescription and Over The Counter medications and called them all pills.

Now that is part of the problem and the lies.

We, as the end consumer, need to understand the difference between food that is good for us either in supplement or raw form and food that is so processed that it is a toxin to us.
For those who were wondering.  

Do we get sick because we don’t take enough of the medications that the pharmaceutical companies sell to make themselves profitable?

Junk food controls need junking


If it is implemented at all the traffic light system of labeling foods under red, amber or green dots - for different categories of which foods are supposed to be healthier for us - is intended only as a guide for those who basically don't know what to choose to eat.


It should never become something for politicians to dictate to the community what we can and cannot eat, certainly not in our children's lunches.

Many health and nutrition experts warn that the traffic light food labelling system is seriously flawed, as was the old food pyramid.

The best way for people to choose what to eat is to understand the choices they make and the impact those choices have on their health.

Of course we also need accurate, detailed, informative labelling to be able to make those choices.

On another topic, Listening to the news last night I'm still left wondering.....

Did the Prime Minister really say that they don't comment on matters of intelligence? …
