There are rampant cases of autism, dementia, crohn’s, arthritis, diabetes… We have been poisoned, whether it was/is the sugars in highly processed foods, saturated fats, 1000’s of chemical additives to our foods including dyes, preservatives, emulsifiers, pesticides…or radical treatments like radiation and chemotherapy, we are being poisoned. Throw in a dose of asbestos, paint thinner, and myriad toxins and pollutants, and we are left to wonder how all of this presents in our bodies.
Let’s not be fooled, this is not the normal consequence of an aging population. Our systems are being inflamed by poison. And our medical profession is proving grossly incompetent at keeping up with the requirements of caring for a population under siege.
Whatever, folks then didn’t encounter the health issues we are dealing with today. It’s sad.
@johnjp too true. My oncologist's very first question was about asbestos and she was shocked when I regaled her with stories of crawling in it in high school as we explored the tunnels of our 1950s school. We'd just put our shirts over our mouths and dive in, lol.
And there wasn't a hot dog, fast food or frozen food my parents wouldn't feed us in the 80s.
The uptick of people like me, getting aggressive cancers in their 30s and 40s is pretty insane, and definitely not normal - you are right
