Did you know that for the first time in U.S. history, our children are not expected to live as long as we do? Did you know that the American life expectancy has declined for the past two out of three years? The reason - our American medical system is based on the prevention of death from disease rather than the prevention of disease itself. The American sickness-management system waits for you to get sick then scrambles to try to save your life leaving you with chronic symptoms, feeling fractured and unwhole. With over 20 years of experience, Dr. Riobé will guide you through the true reasons we're getting sicker and dying sooner. Her journey was borne out of frustration with our American sick-care model, which she studied in medical school and residency. Although this system is critical for acute life-threatening diseases such as heart attacks and appendicitis, it becomes dangerous when we rely on it to prevent diseases or treat chronic conditions, when that's not what it's designed to do. A sick society is doomed to fail no matter how much technology they develop to try to prevent the inevitable.
