It may seem a long way from a lifetime condition such as arthritis but there are, to me, good lessons to learn from those about death that can have a big impact on our most painful disease.
This video exposes the stranglehold the meat and pharmaceutical industry has on our everyday thinking about the causes of death. It might be easy to thus label employees of meat and pharmaceutical industries as the "baddies." However, watch the video carefully and you'll see that society at large is just as guilty.
Society's challenge is compared with how long it has taken to out the tobacco industry, and that taken many decades. Taken to heart by society, hospitals might empty themselves simply by people eating much better diets.
As we all get a bit older we find friends and family getting sick with diseases like cancer. Often we put it down to, "jolly bad luck". This video argue that actually it is as much or more the result of a full life of eating meat, dairy and fish at the expense of greens.
One big surprise to me is the notion that you don't actually even have to eat meat for it to cause you problems. I have often heard the notion that one's toilet seat is cleaner than a kitchen surface, and accepted it as both logical and sensible. But what I had not understood is that just preparing meat and fish in your kitchen week in week out is possibly going to shorten your lifespan, or that of your friends and family.
It is more than worth noting that every statement in this video is supported by good scientific evidence.
