Unprepared means unhealthy, expensive and wanting in nutrition. And when you consider that 70 percent of all disease is lifestyle-induced (by making poor choices in food, drink, not exercising, smoking and being stressed out), it's astounding that we are surprised when handed a less than healthy diagnosis from our doctors.
