The evidence is clear. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), people with chronic illnesses like diabetes and heart disease account for more than 75% of the nation’s $1.4 trillion in medical care costs each year. That figure could jump 42 percent by 2023, according to an Oct. 2007 report by the Milken Institute, a think tank in Santa Monica, Calif.
As the American Medical Student Association (AMSA), the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM), and practitioners in emerging and ancient disciplines report positive results in fighting these illnesses, the path to reducing health care costs seems clear. Equal access to disease prevention services and effective natural treatments could reduce costs for all.

How many doctors have dismissed your concerns? How many have prescribed medication for symptoms without finding the underlying cause?
And how will you pay for help if you find it? You may not be able to afford medical insurance because of the high premiums. If you do have medical insurance, the deductible or co-pays may be doing you in.
