The most nightmarish practice concerning illness and dying is the fact that when it comes down to it, people with families who need help are essentially left to die or suffer because they don’t make a high enough income.
I believe that preventive health care is the most beneficial to America’s health system. Due to the fact that the atrocity of putting a price tag on a person’s well being won’t go away anytime soon the next best thing Americans could do it take measures such as having a healthy diet, exercise and sleep routine to keep preventable illnesses at bay.
I honestly don’t think this unit has changed me that much; I am healthy according to my doctor. Any family members who aren’t healthy haven’t listened to me in the past. I may try to approach them again and try and inform them about their health aliment but otherwise I think I’ll keep my mouth shut. As for looking out for the rest of the world, it’s not that I don’t think it is my responsibility but I don’t think I would be respected well enough to have anyone take my advice. I do, although plan to go to the gym this spring.
Dominant social practices around illness and dying connect to dominant social practices around food in our culture especially because food maintains to have magnitude of importance in our daily lives. I guess one could say that about any culture, so rather, the focal point should be put on what kinds of food Americans eat and the effect it is having on our bodies.
