Added to yesterdays blog....

I was hoping to get someone at least thinking about yesterdays topic. It worked! But not the way some would think. There was a response to the video from some guy titled "Whoop". No, this was not a response to me, but I felt the need to comment. This type of opinion is also more common than you would think. Now rather than paraphrase his thoughts, I decided to post them. Here you go:

I really don't care for this stupid "surgeon general" position in the federal gov't. Sure, having an NIH, CDC, and other public health organizations is one thing, but, my god, don't have some physician or surgeon telling me or my family how to live our lives OUTSIDE the doctor's office! That's insane. It's just as insane as the ONDCP and the "drug czar" telling us not to do drugs. The state serves the people, not the other way around. I don't want gov't babying me like a child.

Now this just blows me away. Someone gives factual information for our massive health decline and this guy takes it personally. I can guarantee when we have stood over friends and loved ones caskets we have all asked the question "Why?". Now we receive some answers and we want people butting out of our lives. I will remember this next time I watch someone drinking gasoline. I will assume they want me staying out of it.

This gentleman may seem excessive in his thoughts but in all my years of nutritional counsel I found one phrase that descibes a large majority of my client base, Non-compliant!!

Let's not let good information go to waste. It is good to "Fight the Good Fight" just make sure it's the right one.
