The medical–industrial complex is a network of interactions between pharmaceutical corporations, government health care bureaucracies, intergovernmental organizations, and medical conglomerates. Its reach also includes paid academics, "philanthropic" foundations, politicians, and corporate media. The term is a product of the military–industrial complex and builds from the basis of that concept, [1] and has significant overlaps, as became more clear after Covid.
Sedentary lifestyle
Physical inactivity is a more important contributor to heart disease than smoking.[2][3]
Poor diet
A global health study based at the Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington, published in 2017 by the Lancet concluded that poor diet was a factor in one in five deaths.[4]
