093 - How We Can ACTUALLY Make America Healthy Again

093 - How We Can ACTUALLY Make America Healthy Again

In conjunction with this week's Growth Equation newsletter, we're diving deep into the deteriorating state of public health in America. As the wellness industry continues to boom, our country's collective health continues to decline. Something is wrong. Today, we try to diagnose how we got here and where we might go next. Topics discussed include how to combat misinformation; why health grifting has gotten so bad; the increasingly problematic ways in which "studies" and "research" are used; what's wrong with cold tubs, supplement stacks, and demonizing single ingredients; what personal and societal level behaviors might help to improve the situation individually and collectively; lessons we can learn from Europe; common myths and mistakes about health and fitness; how to deepen physical literacy and overall health in our education system; and more.
