1135. Pop Culture Prescription: Unveiling Our Pill-Popping Nation
The Doctor Is In Podcast - Un podcast de Dr. A.W. Martin and Dr. A.P. Martin
The United States has only 5% of the world’s population yet they consume 50% of all pharmaceutical drugs. This stat comes from an article Dr. Martin read, Pill Popping Nation. When it comes to health statistics, Dr. Martin usually groups Canada into the number, as we’re often similar to the US. When someone develops a sickness, the first response is always prescribing drugs, and never lifestyle changes. Join Dr. Martin as he explains how North America lives in a society that’s dominated by big food and big pharma.
