The "Bankrupting Them" Is A Lie

A small surprise, for some health economists at public health agencies,

The researchers, on the study in front of me, found that the health costs of thin and healthy people in adulthood are more expensive than those of either fat people or smokers.

The researchers found that from age 20 to 56, obese people racked up the most expensive health costs. But because both the smokers and the obese people died sooner than the healthy group, it cost less to treat them in the long run.

On one study, healthy people lived 84 years. Smokers lived about 77 years, and obese people lived about 80 years.

Ultimately, the thin and healthy group cost the most, from age 20 on.

The obese people who died an average of four years earlier in this study then the thin healthy people, saved the health systems about $50,000 over the cost of caring for those thin people due to their earlier exit.

The results counter the common perception that preventing obesity will save health systems worldwide millions of dollars.

"But if you get Alzheimer's you survive longer, (some of the time as a vegetable) and as a result cost health systems, much, much, more.

Therefore expanding their figures from this study, to diabetes, you as a diabetic, would save health systems about $100,000 or more by your checking out early, obliging with your diabetes diagnosis.

This advancing your obesity to diabetes takes another ten years off,

We are trying to show you how to stick around full term, but you wont bankrupt the system, cause we are going to help you discover how to "fix it yourself."

So if you are happy with those figures...just stick with the "everybody's doing it conventional.....accepted...consensus treatments.
