    What stood out as surprising or disturbing for me in the film clips were: they say living in American should be a ticket to good health, and it is not, America spent a trillion dollars a year in medical care and that is nearly half of all the health dollars spent in the world. It shows because we are not living longer, we are sicker than most in the industrialized nation and as far as life expectancy is concern we rank 30th and still 47 million do not have health care. They claim we are getting sick more often could it be the American diet or individual behaviors. I was not surprise in the “Arriving Healthy” video about the good health some immigrants are in when they come to this country because I was one of those immigrants, and before we came to this country we were doing everything right and if most of us could remember we should have spread the health benefits to the American society.…
