SlimPilotMD.com Announces War on Middle Class Malnutrition

By some estimates, as many as 89 percent of Americans suffer from one or more forms of nutrient deficiency (Source: http://jn.nutrition.org/cgi/content/abstract/140/10/1832). New health and wellness program SlimPilotMD aims to help its members avoid this dilemma.

Austin, TX, October 06, 2010 --(PR.com)-- To the casual eye, the average American family roaming the typical mall appears to be quite well-nourished. However, a well-fed appearance can mask a number of nutritional deficiencies, according to the alternative health and wellness website www.SlimPilotMD.com.

While the latest Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index shows that 63.1% of adults in the U.S. were either overweight or obese in 2009 (source: http://www.gallup.com/poll/125741/six-overweight-obese.aspx), poor diet and nutrient deficiencies have been linked to a wide variety of chronic disease conditions, including heart disease and cancer, the nation's two most prevalent killers.

Conversely, healthy eating habits have been shown to prevent or help reverse most diseases of a chronic nature. 60 percent of all cancers, for instance, can be prevented by good diet, proper nutrition, and healthy lifestyle choices (source: http://www.preventcancer.org/education3c.aspx?id=1944).

“Proper nutrition is a cornerstone of good health,” says the CEO of SlimPilotMD. “But the importance of proper diet and overall nutrition is often overlooked by conventional physicians, however, who receive very little education about nutrition during their medical training.”

To combat this lack, SlimPilotMD provides regularly updated nutritional news and guidance for its members and the general public at members. SlimPilotMD.com/nutrition. Frequently updated features are offered on other neglected topics as well, all with a non-traditional focus intended to complement mainstream beliefs and practices.

For example, “Health Conditions A-Z” (members.slimpilotmd.com/conditions) contains self-care methods for preventing and relieving symptoms of many of the most common health conditions. Of course, this information is not a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment for specific medical conditions.

After years of experience in the alternative health industry, SlimPilotMD’s founders realized that consumers want more than a quick, temporary fix from a pill or crash diet. SlimPilotMD has quickly become the fastest-growing members-only self-care website, where consumers can receive support for their healthy lifestyle goals while learning about health and wellness in an online environment uninfluenced by pharmaceutical advertising.
