Practicing wellness is hard work. Most people would much prefer to ignore good lifestyle choices and then push the responsibility for their well being off onto someone else. True, but look how things have changed. Schools are underfunded so physical fitness (PhysEd) is seldom in the curriculum. A sad part of higher technoloafy are the video and computer games that hold people in their seats for hours. People are WATCHING sports on big screen TVs instead of participating in sports. Everyone drives everywhere, even down the street to an event or location easily within walking distance. The media presents happy people getting stoned or drunk in movies and on TV... Personally, I've been taking vitamins, protein shakes, pumping Iron for several decades; don't drink alcohol (bad for the body - much worse than many believe), don't use tobacco, don't do things known to lead to disease... I'd rather spend my money to staying well, too! It certainly beats becoming sick and having to deal with health care as a response to infirmary. BUT... prevention cost money, as well, and many people who are NOT ignorant of prevention, haven't the money to pay for it.
