The average amount of THC reached 9.6 percent in 2007. That level represents more than a doubling of marijuana potency since 1983, when it averaged just under 4 percent.

"In 2000, according to the World Health Organization, at least 171 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes, or 2.8% of the population. Its incidence is increasing rapidly, and it is estimated that by the year 2030, this number will almost double. Diabetes mellitus occurs throughout the world, but is more common (especially type 2) in the more developed countries. The greatest increase in prevalence is, however, expected to occur in Asia and Africa, where most patients will likely be found by 2030. The increase in incidence of diabetes in developing countries follows the trend of urbanization and lifestyle changes, perhaps most importantly a "Western-style" diet. This has suggested an environmental (i.e., dietary) effect, but there is little understanding of the mechanism(s) at present, though there is much speculation, some of it most compellingly presented."

Elders: The tens of millions of elders in our country "are especially at risk for addiction problems." Often home alone, they are increasingly susceptible to addiction problems including the "misuse of alcohol, medications and illicit substances." They often fall prey to compulsive gambling, shopping and food addictions.

CapturedDiscipline® is highly effective in defeating all eight of these addictive problems, and many more. Two perceptive articles by Ann Gowans of the Columbia (Missouri) Daily Tribune (links below) remind us that the "elders" (55-plus) in our country, as in any country, are a valuable resource. Many remain active in business and in their communities. Highly innovative ideas frequently come from the minds of our elders. "Brilliant innovations are not limited to the genius of youth." In every way we can, we need to take care of our elders.
