@dcdriver -By far the most common major medical condition that will affect all of us is cancer

CVD (Heart disease and stroke) are the leading cause of death for men & women.

*note that type II diabetes is a leading contributor to CVD and kidney disease (nephropathy).

But 95% of type II diabetes, most CVD and most cancers, even alzheimers are chronic diseases that are preventable/delay-able with a primary prevention lifestyle approach - which to be supported, requires a system wide approach.
