Drowning in Dementia

The more scientists attempt to understand dementia, the less we seem to know. Creating a new category adds to disease complexity rather clarify anything. #dementia #dementiaprevention #diseasenews

Disease Distractions

Focusing on health disparities or inequities distracts from the deeper problem that current disease beliefs are inadequate for everyone. "Risk factors" are not a theory of disease, but a gooey belief that formed in the absence of a theory. #riskfactors #cancerriskfactors #cancerdisparities #determinantsofhealth #surfingtheparadigm #healthcarefailure #breakingparadigms

Top Disabilities (Kind Of)

When chronic disease is the topic of discussion, the real leading causes of disability (arthritis and mental health disorders) get lost in the shuffle. Whatever the reason, this shell game fails to hide our ignorance about why people get sick.

Misleading Causes of Death

According to the CDC, diabetes is in the "Top 3" causes of death, yet it is #8. Why? Good question.
