    As part of social security retirement I am for this however, knowing Medicare accompanies social security disability and that covers a wide variety of disabilities I can not see how this would work. Obesity is covered by disability, many disabled due to irreversible injury will be on medications that cause side effects further harming their health. If we reward those who try to live healthier whats to prevent punishing those with genetic diseases, illnesses from medication side effects, those who must live cheaply knowing cheaper foods are not healthy?

    Focusing more on lifestyle issues and their relationships with functional health, data from the Alameda County Study suggested that people can improve their health via exercise, enough sleep, maintaining a healthy body weight, limiting alcohol use, and avoiding smoking. Thanks.

    In addition, according to industry and market classifications, such as the Global Industry Classification Standard and the Industry Classification Benchmark, health care includes many categories of medical equipment, instruments and services as well as biotechnology, diagnostic laboratories and substances, and drug manufacturing and delivery. Thanks.
