The death of family members from common preventable and controllable disease risks changed the way he looked at health care. The event led to a turning point in his life when it became clear to him that the responsibility of your health care is not in the hands of your health-care providers, the pharmaceutical industry or the food industry, but individual responsibility with consultations from your health-care providers. We are responsible for our health care and defining how we want to age “in control or out of control.” Since discovering this reality, he has devoted his life to helping people manage or avoid common preventable disease risks by changing their nutritional and lifestyle choices. He lectures on the need to know your health risks, manage your health-care choices, and encourages families to practice health and nutritional awareness at home before embracing the dangers of unhealthy lifestyle choices. He is vice chairman at the Barton Center for Diabetes Education and the director of Emaya Health Risk Assessment and Wellness Center in Worcester, Massachusetts, where he conducts seminars on health and nutritional awareness and how to take control of your health and be a part of your health-care team.vizualizați mai puține
