Fish Oil Therapy - A step in our Healthcare System

(01-13-09)

The Fish Oil Therapy Project (FOTP) objective is to spotlight the unique health and longevity potential of the long chain omega-3 fatty acids supplied by fish, and fish oil supplements. There is urgent need for professional advice on how to achieve optimum benefits, since the average American is seriously deficient in the disease-preventing, health-promoting omega-3 fatty acids from ocean fisheries, as discussed in http://www.wildegeestfoundation.org/

Tom Daschle offered this introductory comment at the January 9 Senate Confirmation Hearing : "I think we need to change the paradigm in this country on health. It starts with that big picture belief. The paradigm needs to be changed from illness to wellness."

American Heritage Dictionary of the American Language, 4th Ed. Defines "Preventative Medicine": "The Prevention, treatment, and management of illness and the preservation of mental and physical well-being through the services offered by the medical and allied health professions."

HARK! Another Senate hearing, Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pension, 12.10.08.
Dr. Don Wright, MD, MPH, presented lengthy report which ended as follows:

"The Department's investment in a comprehensive and growing prevention and communication science base sets the stage for health care reform in which the public should be able to expect seamless, coordinated care and the the best support for making healthy decisions that science has to offer. It is accurate to say that whatever the specifics of future efforts to reform American health care, a consensus exists that the system of the future will be founded upon prevention and recognition of its value.
Put another way, if prevention is the future - and it is - then the future is now."

Suggestion : Tom Daschle should hire Don Wright as POLICY DIRECTOR.
