Lands B - Careful review of molecular events connecting diets to death identifies two modifiable food imbalances that cause major chronic diseases in Americans. They are 1) imbalance between ingestion and expenditure of food energy, and 2) imbalance between omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acid levels in ingested foods. Health insurers could reduce costs and revolutionize preventive health care by monitoring omega-3 and omega-6 proportions in blood fatty acids and by using personalized interactive food choice software to adjust food intakes to fit individual preferences.

| Treatments that remove signs and symptoms without removing the primary cause of the signs and symptoms unethically create a sense of improved health while the cause continues to harm future generations. It seems unethical and uneconomical to withhold community-wide primary prevention advice. Better public accountability for use of interventions that remove causal mediators could decrease the current transfer of billions of dollars to physicians, hospitals and drug companies from individuals and their employers. |
