KEY SELLING POINTS: According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), 80% of common chronic diseases (heart disease, stroke, diabetes) are lifestyle-driven (nutrition, exercise, stress management). Chronic disease treatments account for 75% of our nation's healthcare costs, which are estimated to account for 20% of our GDP by 2024. That's one in every five dollars for something that doesn't need to happen in the first place.
