(Background for question of the week):

America’s Health Care Expenditures Will Double In Next Ten Years!

The cost of taking care of America’s health is set to double over the next ten years to an annual bill of over 4 trillion dollars (that’s $4,000,000,000,000) according to a new report by federal economics experts. This means that by the year 2016, nearly 20 cents of every dollar earned in the US economy will be spent on health care.

The report puts the current spending on America’s health at 2.1 trillion dollars per year (based on 2006 estimates). This represents 16 cents in every dollar earned in the US economy.

(Question of the week):

Why do you think the amount of money spent on prescription drugs, doctor’s office visits, and surgeries are going to double over the next ten year?

1. The average American is getting sicker, more often, because of lack of exercise and poor nutritional choices.

2. The pharmaceutical industry is taking advantage of us.

3. The government is to busy worrying about giving themselves pay raises and losing their PAC money to address this situation.

4. The FDA, pharmaceutical industry, and the US government are spending billions of dollars to suppress low cost, effective, natural, alternative treatments so only the most expensive treatments will be available.

5. All of the above.

I have only used your Noni and am completely in love with it. I have been taking it for close to a year now. I usually suffer terribly with cedar fever every year about this time. One of my girlfriends was just commenting how miserable she was with her cedar fever and it all of a sudden dawned on me that I have not had ONE symptom this year. I believe it has also been a contributing factor in helping me lose a few pounds. I am not a dieter. I usually walk to help keep my weight in check but it started creeping up over the past couple of years and all of a sudden I was about 20 pounds heavier than I like to be. I am very happy to report that I have shed 13.5 of those pounds over the past few months and the Noni is the only thing I have added to my regimen.

I am thinking about using your liquid vitamins since it is probably the only way I will ever get my husband to take any (he won’t take pills). Incidentally, he takes the Noni diligently so it must be giving him benefits or I’m positive he would have given it up long ago.

Thanks for a great product!

Q: Greetings! Is it safe for my 13 year old daughter to take Acai?

A: Dear Robin,

Yes it is. Acai juice, like Mangosteen juice, or goji juice, or noni juice, is just a really healthy and nutritious fruit juice.

Sincerely,

Marcus Ettinger DC, BSc.
