We have long been believed the greatness of American Medication. It is a wrong perception that traps everybody to uphold the principles that the fat intake should be 40% in our daily diet. This perception in turns leads us to a chronic coronary heart disease, stroke and various types of cancers. In fact, the daily fat intake should reduce to 10%. The mother’s breast milk is a natural foodstuff with only 4% of fat content.

In 1996, there was a wake in the realm of American medication and food nutrition. A new list of diet was announced and perception employed before 1996 was abolished. Before 1996, the recommended main diet included fish, meat, eggs and milk, but the supplementary diet were vegetables, fruits and grains.

These eating habits caused more American suffered from various types of diseases for nearly 40 years. One out of two persons had a heart attack, one out of three persons had cancer, two out of three females had osteoporosis (bone fracture), and one out of 20 persons suffered from diabetes.

Thus, at that moment, when you were in America, when you met someone by the street, they would not ask “how are you?”, instead they would ask “Do you have heart attack?”

From the points stated, we realize that why we get sick easily. The major cause is due to wrong perception on our daily diet, and unhealthy lifestyle as well. Thus, we should furnish us with appropriate eating habits to secure healthy and longevity life. If not, the wrong perception and ignorance towards the diet can lead any one of us to affliction and agonies.
