America Must Reform Its Food Industry or Go Broke

NaturalNews) Health care reform in the United States is impossible without tackling the country's obesity epidemic, author and food activist Michael Pollan has warned.

"Even the most efficient health care system that the administration could hope to devise would still confront a rising tide of chronic disease linked to diet," Pollan wrote recently in The New York Times.

Agree and the problem is getting worse and worse.  Kids need to be out playing instead of sitting in front of video games developing diabetes for example.

New York City just lowered not only its fat allowances in food but also now salt.  Which is sad cause what is NYC without a salt pretzel and hot dog from the corner vendor. No I don't eat hot dogs Rocker dont have a cow, even that is beyond my acceptance level (most of the time except the hot dog carts ;)

It bothers me that you continually point at the shortcomings in the U.S.  It has gotten to be very irritating.  Rather than pointing at the U.S. why don't you consider the fatties in your own country.

In fact, Rocker, I recall many of your posting discussing your own overweight situation.

This is not a derogaty post.

I am not picking on the USA...its in other countries as well...if you are bothered and irritated by this article you are way too sensitive...we have "fatties"  as you say in Canada as well...LOL...im just stating what ive read....i have no intention of "continually point at the shortcomings in the U.S",as you put it...sorry if i offended you
