In a way, this shouldn’t have to inspire – really, we should already be here. Still, I love this quote from British Columbia’s Provincial Health Officer, Dr. Perry Kendall:
“Investing in prevention and the promotion of health should be
undertaken for the same reasons that we treat disease and
injury: not just because of the economic gains that will be
realized, but because it is the hallmark of a civilized, humane, and caring society.”
If you’re hungry for more health prevention and promotion food for thought, chew on this.
