Quote:The problem in many western countries is that prevention by a healthy life style pattern is not seen as one of the more important things in life.....I would thus go for trying to make your health-care system work.Being health conscious is occasionally fashionable, but most of the time its considered square. When you are young, you believe you are immortal, so you get addicted to soda pop, french fries, and sugary snacks. Then, when you are 30ish you get this wake up call when you suddenly discover your metabolism has slowed down and you can't work it off like you did before. I made this point before. We could save a trillion or so in health care costs, if we just spent some time and money encouraging a preventative lifestyle.
By the way, you do have a lot of cool 'hospital series' on TV....so it is possible.
