U.S. Ranks Last Among 16 Developed Nations in Lifespan and Illness, Report Finds

TurboCharged co-authors say optimal body composition and health is not rocket science.

According to a recent report titled U.S. Health in International Perspective: Shorter Lives, Poorer Health, the U.S. ranks last in lifespan, injuries and illnesses when compared with 16 developed nations even though it spends twice the amount per capita on health care.

When compared to Australia, Austria, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the Netherlands and the U.K., looking at data over the last several decades, the report uncovered a consistent and pervasive pattern of higher mortality and inferior health in the U.S., beginning at birth. For example, for many years, Americans have had a shorter life expectancy than people in almost all the peer countries; as of 2007, U.S. males lived almost 3.7 fewer years than Swiss males, and U.S. females lived 5.2 fewer years than Japanese females.

"Optimal health and longevity is determined by your overall diet and lifestyle," say boomer generation health experts Dian Griesel, Ph.D., and Tom Griesel, authors of the books TurboCharged: Accelerate Your Fat Burning Metabolism, Get Lean Fast and Leave Diet and Exercise Rules in the Dust (April 2011, BSH) and The TurboCharged Mind (January 2012, BSH).

"No government intervention is likely to change the situation," adds Tom. "Every individual needs to take responsibility for their own individual health and the health of their families. Optimal body composition and health is not rocket science: Eat the same kinds of real, natural, whole foods that we have survived and thrived on for hundreds of thousands of years and avoid artificial, processed, manufactured, fake foods; drink clean water; stay active; avoid toxins; get a good night's sleep and practice stress reduction."
