What Do They Have In Common?

Where would such a bold statement come from?

The number one risk for chronic disease in the United States is Dietary Risk according to Risk Burden Study Funded by Bill and Melissa Gates.  nutritionfacts.org

The three chronic diseases  do not just go away. With dietary risk as the foundation, eating habits must be changed.

Ayurveda teaches you must eat according to your Ayurveda body type. If the changes are not made these illnesses get worse over time.

Chronic disease in Ayurveda is described an avarana, it means an imbalance starts another imbalance and then becomes even a third and fourth problem leading to advanced chronic disease.
