  • 95% of Americans have some kind of metabolic disorder eg; insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes.
  • 6 in 10 Americans have a chronic disease and 4 in 10 people have more than 1 chronic disease.
  • Type 2 diabetes, cardio vascular disease and other chronic conditions continue to rise.
  • Over 1 billion people worldwide are classified as obese & over 2 billion are classified as overweight.
