Take Care of Yourself, So Others Don’t Have To
Most adults in America are overweight or obese. Half take at least one prescription drug. Many take several. This is a big problem—not just for them, but for all of us.
Healthcare costs are out of control. Being overweight and unhealthy leads to more doctor visits, more medications, and higher costs. Insurance prices go up for everyone. Even if you take care of yourself, you’re still paying for those who don’t.
The frustrating part? This is preventable. Staying healthy isn’t complicated. Eat real food. Move your body. Get stronger. Sleep well. These simple habits can keep people off medications and out of the doctor’s office.
But too many people wait until it’s too late. They rely on pills instead of fixing the problem. They expect others to pay for their bad choices. That’s disappointing.
The good news? You can do something about it. No one has to be perfect, but everyone can do better. Make one small change today. Take responsibility for your health. It’s better for you, and it’s better for everyone.
