Rochester, Minn. (CBS ATLANTA) –Researchers find that nearly 70 percent of Americans are on at least one prescription drug, and more than half receive at least two prescriptions.
Mayo Clinic researchers report that antibiotics, antidepressants and painkiller opioids are the most common prescriptions given to Americans. Twenty percent of U.S. patients were also found to be on five or more prescription medications.
The study is uncovering valuable information to the researchers about U.S. prescription practices.
“Often when people talk about health conditions they’re talking about chronic conditions such as heart disease or diabetes,” Dr. St. Sauver stated in a Mayo Clinic press release. “However, the second most common prescription was for antidepressants — that suggests mental health is a huge issue and is something we should focus on. And the third most common drugs were opioids, which is a bit concerning considering their addicting nature.”
Nearly one in four women ages 50-64 were found to be on an antidepressant, with 13 percent of the overall population also on antidepressants. Seventeen percent of people in the study were being prescribed antibiotics, and 13 percent were on painkilling opioids.
As a whole, women and older adults received the most prescription drugs. Antidepressants and opioids were most common among young and middle-aged adults.
The percentage of people who took at least one prescription drug in the past month increased from 44 percent in 1999-2000 to 48 percent in 2007-08, the Mayo Clinic reports. Expenditures on prescription drugs reached $250 billion in 2009, and accounted for 12 percent of total personal health care expenditures.
According to the CDC, the percent of persons using at least one prescription drug in the past month increased nearly 50 percent between 2007 and 2010.
And the researchers said prescription drug spending will only increase in the future.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a reserach scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center states, "When an alkaline lifestyle and diet is not present prescription drugs are of NO value,  When an alkaline lifestyle and diet is present prescription drugs are of NO need.  Education NOT Medication1

The American Medical Association Declares Obesity A Disease!

Posted by luputtenan1 on Thursday, June 20, 2013


Yesterday, June 18th, 2012, the American Medical Association (AMA) decided to recognize obesity as a disease which could boost sales and continued development of prescription diet drugs, according to Forbes.
Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center states, "Doctors prescribe drugs of which they know little, for the human body for which they know less, for diseses for which they know nothing at all!  The American Medical Association (AMA) declaration that obesity is a disease is just another indication that Big Medicine and Big Pharma is out-of-touch with the cause and effect relationship between obesity, diabetes, diabesity and heart disease which are ALL modern-day symptomologies of what we eat, what we drink, what we think and how we live.  
The bottom-line is obestity, diabetes, diabesity, and heart disease are NOT diseases at all.  They are symptoms of an over-acidic body due to an inverted way of living, eating and thinking.  Obesity is not a fat problem it is an acid problem from eating acidic meat, cheese, milk, grains, sugar and the lack of daily exercise. Obesity is the body protecting itself from an over-acidic lifestyle and diet.  If the body doesn't pack on the pounds to buffer excess acids from diet and metabolism, which are NOT being eliminated properly through the four channels of elimination - defecation, urination, perspiration, or respiration, the body will immediately go into systemic acidosis and the result is death.  
People become fat, sick and tired with their teeth and their lack of exercise. Diabetes is simply caused by the destruction of the intestintinal villi from eating animal protein which leads to increased blood sugar as the body converts body cells into blood cells. Coronary heart dis-ease happens when the heart is being marinated in a soup of dietary and/or metabolic acid.  
The cure for obesity, diabetes, diabesity, and heart disease is simple - stop eating and drinking acidic foods and start eating and drinking alkaline foods with daily exercise.  There is no need for more useless Big Pharma drugs targeted at a disease symptom and NOT the primary cause!  
Over 70 percent of the US population are drug addicts and are NOW poping and pooping pills and the health of Americans is getting worse NOT better.  If the AMA and Big Pharma had the answers to good health in America than the health of Americans would be getting better NOT worse.  But the AMA and Big Pharma have only one answer - sell more worthless drugs for which they know little, for so-called diseases, including obesity, diabetes, diabesity, heart disease and cancer for which they know NOTHING at ALL!"
The move effectively defines 78 million American adults and 12 million children as having a medical condition that requires treatment, the Los Angeles Times reports.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center states, "The 78 million American adults and the 12 million children who have been wrongly diagnosed do NOT have a medical condition, they have an acidic lifestyle and dietary condition for which can be reversed with an alkaline lifestyle and diet - with NO drugs and NO medical intervention.  Just simply stop eating and drinking acidic foods."
Treatment of obesity-related illnesses drives up the nation's medical bill by more than $150 billion a year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a Research Scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center states, "The Nation's medical bill  of $150 million for the treatment of so-called obesity-related illnesses can be totally eliminated through education and NOT medication or medical intervention.  What these over-weight people need is an alkaline lifestyle and diet!"
“Recognizing obesity as a disease will help change the way the medical community tackles this complex issue that affects approximately one in three Americans,” AMA board member Patrice Harris, M.D., said in a statement. “The AMA is committed to improving health outcomes and is working to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, which are often linked to obesity.”
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a reserach scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center states, "Recognizing obesty or diabesty as a disease will only lead to more obesty and more diabesity.  Why?  Because obesity and diabesity are NOT diseases!  They are acidic symptoms of an over-acidic lifestyle and diet.  They are consequences of lifestyle and dietary choice and need NO drugs or medical intervention.  The dis-ease or symptoms are the result of what people are thinking, eating and drinking.  Change the diet and lifestyle to an alkaline lifestyle and diet and the symptoms of obesity, diabesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer go away.  The old adages 'you are what you eat', 'you are what you think', 'you are how you live', are true.  You want a healthier America? than stop all the drugging and medical intervention.  I believe the citizens of the world need more Education NOT Medication!"

Obesity is officially a disease, the American Medical Association declares

The American Medical Association’s decision to recognize obesity as a disease could boost sales and continued development of prescription diet drugs, according to Forbes.
The move effectively defines 78 million American adults and 12 million children as having a medical condition that requires treatment, the Los Angeles Times reports.
“Recognizing obesity as a disease will help change the way the medical community tackles this complex issue that affects approximately one in three Americans,” AMA board member Patrice Harris, M.D., said in a statement. “The AMA is committed to improving health outcomes and is working to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, which are often linked to obesity.”
While the AMA’s decision has no legal authority, it is expected to change how insurance companies cover obesity drugs, surgery and counseling.  It could also open up a wider range of treatment options for obese patients who may also have related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and certain types of cancers and disabilities, the New York Times reports.
The new ruling goes against a study released  just last year by the AMA’s Council on Science and Public Health. The council said obesity should not be considered a disease mainly because the measure usually used to define obesity, the body mass index, is simplistic and flawed.
The resolution released Tuesday argued that obesity was a “multimetabolic and hormonal disease state” that leads to unfavorable outcomes like cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes and certain cancers, the New York Times reported.
Treatment of obesity-related illnesses drives up the nation's medical bill by more than $150 billion a year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Projected increases in the obesity rate could boost that figure by an additional $550 billion over the next 20 years, according to a recent Duke University study cited by the Los Angeles Times.
Currently, 2.3 million Americans are estimated to be overweight or obese, and half of Americans could be obese by 2040 according to some projections, Dr. Jeffrey I. Mechanick, president of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologist, told the New York Daily News.
