Harry Matossian, M.D. - U.S. Healthcare Crisis: The Problem and the Solution!

Our very special guest this month is Harry Matossian, M.D. His presentation is entitled: “U.S. Healthcare Crisis - How We Got Here and
How to Turn It Around.

Health care expenditures are rising dramatically. Since 2014, life expectancy in the U.S. has dropped every year. 70% of Americans are overweight and 40% are obese. Fatty Liver Disease has risen over 500% in the past 30 years due to food choices. Cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer are crushing the U.S. population & GDP (Gross Domestic Product). The question is WHY? Can anything be done to correct the CRISIS?

Please join us for this provocative lecture that tackles all these points and suggests a simple but radical solution!
