0:00.0	Beth a pleasure to have you here. Thanks for joining on the podcast. You know today we're here to talk about a super important topic that's been getting a lot of attention in our community and nationally and with elections and it's the epidemic of childhood chronic disease.
0:18.0	But the thing is if you listen to the legacy media out there. They'll tell you that things are fine, kids are not
0:27.3	sicker than they were before, everything is okay, and anybody who's sounding the
0:32.4	alarm on this is part of the quote-unquote
0:34.8	WU-WU caucus. But let's start off with the fact that I don't think people actually realize how bad things are.
0:45.0	Give us a state of childhood chronic disease and why it truly is an epidemic here in America.

1:16.5	broad brush look at what is going on with children's health. So that was
1:21.2	almost 15 years ago. So we can only imagine that the rates are just
1:25.1	increasing exponentially if you look back at the trends over the last few decades.
1:28.8	So what does it look like over the last few decades? If you go back to 1960, you had 2% of American children
1:34.1	with a diagnosed chronic health condition.
1:36.0	So we've gone from 2% in the 1960s to more than half and likely way higher than that.
1:41.3	And the other thing that's not taken to account in that
