I am highly concerned that in our attempt to avoid covid-19 we have traded away the health and wellness of a large portion of the global population. I have witnessed a sharp rise in obesity with its related problems of type 2 Diabetes, High Blood pressure, Atherosclerosis, etc.. Due to the lockdowns, vitamin D levels have fallen precipitously and through lack of sufficient exposure we have immune dysfunction with seasonal allergy severity being at an all time high. We need to get outside, breathe fresh air, and be healed by nature. We need to exercise, to move, to burn calories, to have fun. We need to stop stress eating, being paranoid and suspicious of strangers and relatives alike. We need to hug and kiss each other so that oxytocin will be released so that our hearts will be strengthened, so that our immune systems will be supported and so that the stress hormone cortisol’s release will be inhibited. What do you think?
