Unhealthy Betrayal: How the Manipulation of Science and Politics by Corporate Interests Destroys Health and Threatens the Future of Humanity

Why, as a population, are we so unhealthy? When one in two men and one in three women are predicted to get cancer, surely something is radically wrong. Diabetes is remorselessly increasing as is obesity. What can you do to protect yourself and not end up as just another victim to one of the modern illnesses plaguing us all? The author suggests it is important to be better informed to avoid becoming another casualty to a broken and flawed health-care system.Unhealthy Betrayal explores the reasons for the collapse of health, the prevalence of chronic health conditions in society, and the failure of modern medicine-with its reliance on the use of drugs, chemotherapy and surgery to deal with the consequences of the toxic environment, and the problems created by the industrialisation of our food supply. He asks why it is the organisations seemingly set up to protect us from harm consistently fail to do this and shows how the corporate pathological pursuit of profits, corrupts democracy, damages our health and engulfs society with both financial debt and a toxic burden for generations to come. Solutions to the current health crisis, and suggestions for ways we can all protect ourselves and our children, and give hope to future generations, are the focus of this book.It is a wake-up call to those who believe that doing nothing will protect them from suffering the ravages of modern chronic health problems plaguing our society.
