America’s Broken Approach to Healthcare & Nutrition | Dr. Will Cole
Dr. Will Cole sits down with David on today’s episode of The David Nurse Show to unpack one of the most pressing issues facing America: our broken approach to healthcare and nutrition. Despite spending more on healthcare than any other industrialized nation, the U.S. faces skyrocketing chronic disease and declining life expectancy. Will doesn’t just point out the problems—he presents solutions through his work with the “Maha” movement (Make America Healthy Again), which is aiming to democratize access to functional medicine and break the grip of the pharmaceutical and processed food industries.
Together Will and David expose the deep-rooted issues: food subsidies that promote disease, misinformation in media, and political agendas that distort the truth. They also tackle the cultural contradictions—how toxic diet culture has swung to glorify obesity under the guise of body positivity, and why self-respect should be the foundation of nutritional choices. The conversation balances big-picture activism with personal responsibility, offering both inspiration and actionable guidance.
