    Hello S:

    We can begin by producing ONLY healthy food.

    Maybe you can take the analogy of giving a hungry person a fish or teaching that person how to fish. But with all the education out there - the classes on healthy eating, the magazines, the TV shows, the doctor oriented shows, the information on the net - is it too much, not enough, or do people just not listen?

    Did you see the news report about obesity in China? Never used to be a problem there. Now it is, especially with the younger generations. McSizing China!

    Producing your own food is an excellent way to go. Even if you live in an apartment - you can grow some vegetables. You can buy from a Farmer's Market. You can invest in a Community Garden. Changing the diet to ditch the junk food (although I love Doritos).

    I saw Dr. Oz yesterday and he talked about Alzheimer's. He said the country of India has a very low rate of Alzheimer's and he credits that to the diet and use of spices - especially curry.

    One has to be willing to change. How do you accomplish that?
