Poor diet and exercise the worst killer of all – Thousand Oaks Acorn

Thanks for the letter from Terry Brown (May 21) about the difference in COVID-19 deaths in Japan versus in America, attributed to wearing masks. The situation is much larger than that. Japan has the second-highest life expectancy of any country on earth at 84.43 years. The U.S. is 47th, with a life expectancy of 78.8 years.

One of the largest differences between the U.S. and Japan is our poor food quality and a diet that causes some of the largest numbers of deathsin particular, diabetes. Also, Americans, due to a diet high in sugar, processed foods containing toxins, etc., the Standard American Diet or SAD, are more likely to be obese, which has enormous adverse health consequences on any other condition.

People who are basically healthy either dont get the coronavirus at all or get over it if they do.

Your health is your responsibility. The government is not going to fix it for you, nor is the pharmaceutical industry. American physicians are not trained in nutrition; they are trained to diagnose and prescribe or do surgery.

In fact, a very high number of people die yearly from medical errors and overdoses on drugs they were taking as prescribed.

Start with your own medications make a list and look them up and read the uses and possible adverse reactions. Make sure to look up any word used that you dont know, so that you really understand what is written.

Have a look at the labels of things youre eating: Sugar? Weird words you dont know? Look them up.

Likely to contribute to diabetes? (Check the glycemic index how fast the sugars get into your system and cause an insulin reaction). These are places to start.
