Is Obesity Focus What's Needed for Health? 1 Year, 11 Months ago Karma: 0
so much emphasis now on eliminating obesity. Yeah but then why obesity? Is that what's up? Watching a TED Prize winner Jamie Oliver talk about issues of children learning about food, reminded me that many kids have no idea even where milk comes from (a carton?) There is no "experience" with nature, with life? There is such a disconnect because the focus has been on anything but health. Money making, money saving, advertizing, consumerism appealing to our basic needs for meaning, for nourishment and quick fixes of fast food or purchase of some thing to fix a missing need. This all seems far afield of health considerations, but upon visiting a skilled nursing facility, I learned that they spend $6 a day on food for patients. It would seem they will keep patients longer with this expenditure and what an effective act for them to make more money from medicare and insurance...more fragmentation with acts of we versus them. Can't we see the connection here that there is no connection being made to the whole relatedness of what brings health?

Hope for life to be connected in our awareness of the processes that form us and that we influence by our choices
