VPL You have brought up a very good point, however I expect that you are singing to the choir. It is a difficult idea to teach, when people have been raised to think of symptoms as "sickness" and lack of symptoms to mean "health". In fact a lot of people are treating symptoms which are related to the body "healing" and stopping the healing process (German New Medicine). That is called a "hanging healing" which continues until the initial cause of the disease is resolved. Many people live their lives with "hanging healings" that never resolve and consider themselves "healthy".
Also, most people will not change their habits consistently until they have a healing crisis and often the changes that they make will not necessarily address the primary cause. For most people, the information is overwhelming and the status quo works as long as the symptoms stay under the radar. The standard outlook is "don't fix something that ain't broke" and the problem with that is that you can't always find what is broke or even know that it is broke.
So to paraphrase Barefoot joyfully living your life has has its merits, at least that way, you will leave with a smile!
