Once upon a time, I worked for a company that offered its employees 3 levels of health insurance to choose from:

The first level, an HMO, offered total and complete 100% health care cost coverage, for even small things. It covered up to a million (or 2) bucks a year (or something like that) for major catastrophic illness. In other words, no co-pay for office visits – ever. But you had to do EVERYTHING within the HMO facility – there were no choices about how things were done or treatment options available.

The second health care payment plan offered almost the same benefit amount for catastrophic care costs, with only a small co-pay for office visits. There was a little more freedom to choose certain health care options, should the need arise, but basically the number of providers and choices were pretty limited. The office of a doctor who participated in this plan was in my home town though.

The 3rd option was very flexible with regards to choice of doctors, where I could get things done such as blood work and x-rays and MRIs (should any ever be needed). The co-pay was highest per office visit (and even more when it came to office visits for specialists).

That first year I chose the HMO. Why not? It’s all inclusive … all paid for … right?

Bad choice.

That first year both my wife and I had to visit a doctor several time for the flu and such. I waited on average for 2-3 hours in a very crowded lobby just to see a doctor. I also had to drive about 40 minutes away just to reach this facility.

When I finally got to see a primary care physician (NEVER the same one), he or she never spent more than 5 minutes with me. They always instructed the ever present assistant to write out what drug prescription they were prescribing, and then have me take it to the in-house pharmacy, and then I was sent out the door so the cattle line could continue.

The next year I switched to the second option.

That experience turned out to be largely the same, although the waiting time was a bit less. The doctor’s office was ALWAYS very crowded though. The biggest differences this time around were that I noticed while I did have to reach into my wallet to pay a few bucks for the co-pay, most of the other folks in the herd didn’t.

They got to use cards issued by the good ole’ state of NJ to cover their co-pay (which I assumed NJ taxpayers such as myself were paying for). (Ahhhh … ain’t democracy grand)?

The other difference was that I had to drive to either of the 2 pharmacies in town to have a prescription filled out if I had one made out for me. (Author’s note: Please keep in mind that, at this time, I knew NOTHING about a natural approach to health).

The 3rd year I switched to the highest “out-of-pocket” cost option. If me, my wife or one of our kids had to go to the doctor’s, I had to fork over a higher co-payment. But I only had to wait a little while in an office.

I also had a wide number of physicians to choose from. We had many more options. We had much more FREEDOM and flexibility.

Guess which kind of plan we’ve been with now for years? Do I need to say it was option #3?

So what does this have to do with “living foods?” Simple.

Imagine being stuck in a socialist health care system. Imagine being locked inside a government created and controlled cattle line – where bureaucrats get to make even more critical choices on your behalf.

Imagine … Obamacare!

(Just to be fair here, you could insert the name of any Democrat or Republican politician who might be President someday and prescribe such nonsense).

Okay. Get the picture? Would you want to be forced to be stuck inside such a system (should one be enacted)?

Of course not! So what is the BEST thing you can do for yourself?

Stay healthy. Eat right. Live right. Do right. Help keep your body out of that madness by feeding it raw and living foods. Work for your health by eating living foods and reap the rewards of good health.

It’s your best line of personal protection (self-defense) when it comes to the government’s schemes of socialized medicine.

Yes, if passed, they’ll still TAX the yin-yang out of you and forcibly confiscate your hard-earned wealth .. so health care will be FREE for everyone. But at least you won’t have to contend with the madness of the cattle line … hopefully, not very much anyhow.
