Reviews
"Dr. Saphier does a fantastic job breaking down the dangers of socialized medicine, the cause of rising medical bills that drive us all crazy, and why your own role in your health journey is so important. Plus, anyone who uses the word 'phytochemicals' properly and gets how important they are to our health is a friend of mine." -- Jedidiah Bila, co-host of Fox & Friends Weekend, author of #DoNotDisturb, and health nut "This important, timely book lucidly diagnoses what ails American health care. Prescriptions are thoughtfully offered. Key for a healthier future: more people taking personal responsibility for their lifestyle choices." -- Steve Forbes, former presidential candidate and chairman and editor in chief of Forbes Media "Make America Healthy Again is a fresh and surprising take on the health care debate. Nicole Saphier overturns conventional wisdom about health care to reveal that it's a problem we have to confront ourselves, not leave up to Washington bureaucrats." -- Sally C. Pipes, president, CEO, and Thomas W. Smith Fellow in Health Care Policy at the Pacific Research Institute "Nicole Saphier has written a clear and persusasive book explaining the crisis we are in and how we've been tackling health care all wrong." -- Lee Carter, president of Maslansky-Partners and author of Persuasion: Convincing Others When Facts Don't Seem to Matter "Dr. Saphier pierces through the smoke of modern medicine and presents practical solutions for everyday Americans." -- Marty Makary, MD, professor at John Hopkins University School of Medicine and author of The Price We Pay "Dr. Nicole Saphier uses her firsthand experience as a physician to encourage people to take ownership of their health and build a happier and healthier America." -- Avik S. A. Roy, president of the Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity "Make America Healthy Again is a must-read for anyone concerned about a nation dying too young as it drowns in debt." -- Charles Payne, host of Making Money with Charles Payne, Fox Business Network, Dr. Saphier does a fantastic job breaking down the dangers of socialized medicine, the cause of rising medical bills that drive us all crazy, and why your own role in your health journey is so important. Plus, anyone who uses the word 'phytochemicals' properly and gets how important they are to our health is a friend of mine.

Synopsis
Memorial Sloan Kettering radiologist, nationally recognized patient advocate, and Fox News contributor Nicole Saphier argues that we can't fix the American healthcare system until we fix ourselves.The American health care system is collapsing, and people are looking for someone to blame. The truth is, this isn't a government problem. It's our own fault. In this thought-provoking book, board certified medical doctor Nicole Saphier calls on all Americans to take responsibility for their individual health. Americans are notoriously unhealthy--we eat too much, drink too much, and sit too much. When roughly 80% of cardiovascular disease and 40% of all cancer cases could be prevented by simple lifestyle changes, it is time to take a deeper look at the problem and ask who truly is responsible. Saphier contends that by getting healthier, we can reduce the astronomical cost of treatment and improve overall care. We don't need socialized medicine--we need to take better care of ourselves. In Make America Healthy Again , Saphier combines historical events, economic trends, essential lifestyle advice, and her own perspective to offer concrete solutions to address this massive problem. As she examines a wide range of topics, including the leading causes of death, mental health stigma, social media, physician burnout, and the opioid crisis, Saphier offers a much-needed alternative perspective on the healthcare debate. The only way to lower health care costs for everyone is to stop incentivizing bad health decisions. Plans like "Medicare for all" would allow Americans to continue to eat poorly and lead sedentary lives. We can't keep expecting doctors to fix behaviors that we have in our power to prevent, she argues. It's only going to get worse unless we take action. It's up to the American people to make America healthy again., NATIONAL BESTSELLER If Americans want to know why their health care is so costly and getting costlier, they need only look in the mirror. Americans are notoriously unhealthy--we eat too much, drink too much, and sit too much. When roughly 80 percent of cardiovascular disease and 40 percent of all cancer cases could be prevented by simple lifestyle changes, it is time to take a deeper look at the problem and ask who is truly responsible. Consider that: - After seventy years of innovation, heart disease and cancer remain the top two causes of death in the United States. - In 1960, health care spending was 5 percent of America's GDP; today, it is 17.5 percent. - The government spends over $1 trillion annually on health care. - Nearly one in five American deaths is associated with poor diets. - Simply reducing sodium intake by 1,200 mg per day could save up to $20 billion a year in medical costs. In Make America Healthy Again , Nicole Saphier, a Memorial Sloan Kettering physician, nationally recognized patient advocate, and media personality, reveals how individual negligence and big government incompetence have destroyed America's health care system. Combining historical events, economic trends, and essential lifestyle advice, with her unique perspective, she offers concrete solutions to address this epic problem. We don't need socialized medicine--we need to take better care of ourselves. By getting healthier and adopting preventative measures, Saphier believes, we can reduce the astronomical costs of treatment and improve overall care. The only way to lower medical costs for everyone is to stop incentivizing bad health decisions. Policies such as the Affordable Care Act and single-payer plans ignore something crucial to lowering the overall financial burden: personal responsibility. We can no longer expect doctors and the government to fix illnesses we have the power to prevent. Regardless of which health policy is adopted, our nation will flounder unless we take action.

- a***v (137)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI am a serious book collector and I don’t care if I’m spending $2.00 or $200.00 on a book the fact that this soft cover book arrived in a thin soft mailer pissed me right off. First, it ended up bending the top to corners slightly, literally just enough to be annoying as hell. Second, I want this book, if it came damaged then it’s ruined and that’s such a waste! Also! Soft mailers don’t protect from water damage!! For this much money, you use a clear bubble mailer with a strong box.
