When it comes to improving health care in the United States, one thing is for certain... what we have now is a ‘sick care’ system that is mostly reactive to issues. Currently health care works by waiting until symptoms of disease arise, as opposed to spending more time on the maintenance of health & wellness so that those problems do not occur in the first place. 

However, there is a movement in healthcare known as "lifestyle medicine," which teaches individuals how to reverse and prevent chronic disease through lifestyle modification. These “lifestyle modifications” typically consist of strategies in regard to stress reduction, exercise & nutrition. Most doctors prescribe a lifetime of medications to treat illness & disease, but lifestyle changes can prevent and even reverse them. 

Education programs tailored toward improving health and well-being are lacking in the U.S., especially within impoverished communities.

It is important to understand that if you take good care of the mind and body, there is little need for expensive and sometimes toxic pharmaceuticals or invasive surgeries.
