Along the way we meet Ren Miller, whose home is regularly pounded by fertilizer cannons from the next door factory farm; slaughterhouse vet Dr. Lester Friedlander who blew the whistle on Mad Cow Disease; political prisoner Jake Conroy; and world-class competitors such as retired NFL defensive lineman David Carter and ultra-endurance athlete Rich Roll, who completed 5 Ironman triathlons in less than a month, a week-long triathlon. Most people know that the modern food, healthcare, and pharmacy processes have been horribly wrong, but they don’t really know the details and implications. Many believe cardiovascular disease, obesity, and diabetes are hereditary, refusing to understand that the eating patterns of their parents and ancestors are what they have really acquired. It is possible to avoid and even cure illnesses that kill millions. What The Health is taking you on an adventure, uncovering with our own government the deadly entwining of the meat, healthcare, and drug industry, and the industrial, regulatory internet built to mislead the public and hold Americans critically sick.
