The exponential rise in the prevalence of chronic disease in the developed world is staggering, and threatens the financial and political stability of the developed nations around the world. In the US, 46% of our children now carry a chronic disease diagnosis. This is in stark contrast to the chronic disease burden of 4% in the US population (including all ages) in the 1960s. The conditions that are becoming prevalent today reflect damage to every organ system in the body, and include the autism spectrum disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, depression and anxiety, food allergies and sensitivities, environmental allergies, metabolic challenges like precocious puberty, abnormal reproductive development, diabetes, autoimmune conditions, and cancers. Research from around the globe suggest that a combination of genomic, autoimmune, nutritional, and environmental factors are now contributing to the collapse of health in our children and adults. Not surprisingly, the diseases in our domesticated animals – from pets to livestock – have followed a similar trajectory. While this may seem overwhelming, the fact that each of these systems seemed to collapse at the same time in the timeline would suggest that there is a root cause event that has setoff the cascade of systemic complications. This talk explores the role of the microbiome and agriculture system as ground zero of this humanitarian crisis, and a pathway to recovery.

Zach Bush, MD:
Dr. Bush is one of the few triple board-certified physicians in the country – with expertise in Internal Medicine, Endocrinology and Metabolism, and Hospice/Palliative care. The breakthrough science that he and his colleagues have delivered offer profound new insights into human health and longevity as well as how we can re-engage the power of mother earth to reach food and and health independence. His education efforts provide a grassroots foundation from which we can launch change in our legislative decisions, ultimately up-shifting consumer behavior to bring about radical change in the mega industries of big farming, big pharma, and Western Medicine at large.
