Its like 1 in 5 adults are on mental meds. Long term maintenance; not crisis intervention.
And the kids? We can’t put garbage in and not expect garbage out. If GMO foods and sugar in everything is safe; why is 70% of the US obese or overweight? And yes it’s genetic for some- but there’s a reason they feed corn to cattle and pigs and chick…

And yes it’s genetic for some- but there’s a reason they feed corn to cattle and pigs and chickens- it’s quickly and cheaply fattens them up. They feed this stuff to newborns in formula. Americans would be shocked if they read the labels on food and knew what they all meant. Or know that everything is covered in chemicals in the corporate fields. You can’t wash off a season of pesticides and herbicides in the sink.
The digestive system is known as our “2nd brain”…..perhaps the collective WE need to address the gut and not the brain for the learning issues and demand the FDA and CDC actually do their job or get rid of their useless jobs.
You have a good point here. I'm really health conscious in terms of what I eat but not a fanatic (I'll eat a big piece of pie *IF* it's homemade and I recognize the names of all the ingredients and none of them are dye or preservatives). EVERY food commercial on TV is for some godawful "meal" and each company seems to try to outdo the others into how much sugar, fat and salt they can stuff into whatever they're serving. Deep-fried pizza with stuffed crust and quadruple cheese! And this food is cheap because the government subsidizes corn but not, say, broccoli.
And in France for example (bc that I have first hand knowledge AND their lifestyle is often used to promote universal/socialized medicine) they subsidize locally produced food and are highly protective of family farms and “clean” foods.
