Four ways to achieve our birthright

It is every human being's birthright to be healthy, afford their health care, and feel great. These three things help to give them the energy to pursue their best life. How do we create this?

1. Pass health care reform so people can afford to begin their journey to health. 2. Work with all insurance companies to have them provide total preventive health care; covering everything from nutrition education to alternative medicine. What we have is crisis health care, not preventive medicine. Yes, having coverage for office visits to doctors, yearly checkups, hospital stays, and surgeries are important. Now let's move to true preventive medicine. We need to learn how to eat well, exercise, meditate, etc. The knowledge needs to become available in the main stream. Then people can make their own choices.

3. We need to return to organic growing of non GMO fruits and vegetables. 4. We need to return to treating the animals we eat humanely, by having them free range and eating the foods they were meant to eat. Cows eat grass and chickens eat bugs and worms. So I am putting out an invitation to the people of this country to believe that all of these things are possible. It is our birthright.
