The Top 10 Prescribed Pharmaceuticals of 2016
Are a Sign That Food is Killing Us

Our food supply is being compromised and bastardized by corporations
who profit handsomely by feeding the American public ever-more
processed, modified, and chemical-laden foods. As if this were some kind
of revolving door conspiracy, when food makes us sick, we spend more
money on healthcare, and a look at the most prescribed medications of
2016 make it clear there is a direct link between poor food and poor
health in America.
The 2016 list of the 50 most prescribed medications in America, as reported by Lowest Med,
includes among the top ten, nine medications used to address health
problems that can be primarily associated with an unhealthy diet.
The list includes the following:
Medications for hypertension, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and heart problems:
- Atorvastatin Calcium
- Lisinopril
- Amlodipine
- Simvastatin
- Metoprolol ER
- Losartan
Medications for acid reflux and digestion issues:
- Omeprazole
Medications for diabetes:
- Metformin
Medications for hyper-thyroid/autoimmune disease:
- Levothyroxine
This is quite telling, as the health problems represented in this
list are largely linked to diet and lifestyle issues. hypertension, high
blood pressure, and high cholesterol are linked to diets which result
in obesity due to the intake of fatty, salty foods along with poor
exercise habits.
Acid reflux is preventable with a proper, non-acidic diet, however,
the type of foods that contribute to reflux are quite common in the
American diet.
Diabetes has quickly become a major national health issue, and while
few institutions will venture to say that diet is the cause, it is
widely suspected that diets high in sugar, processed sugar substitutes,
and starchy foods will most certainly lead to diabetes, food is driving
the rise in this health condition.
What may be considered remarkable in this list is that while one may
suspect mental health medications and pain pills to be represented, the
top 10 is all about general health issues caused by dietary issues.
There are natural alternatives to many of the leading pharmaceuticals,
however, in order to see the benefits of using food and natural
supplements as medicine total lifestyle changes, including major changes
in how we view and think about overall health are necessary.
Unfortunately, many doctors today recommend the pharmaceutical,
palliative model of healthcare hoping to give patients instant results
by managing symptoms, and too infrequently help people to change their
habits and outlook in order to achieve optimal health.
Now that we are able to see a direct connection between food and
pharmaceutical remedies, we have all the evidence we need to make the
necessary lifestyle changes to experience true health and wellness
without such expensive dependence on the pharmaceutical establishment.
