NATIVE AMERICAN MADE

 Alaskan Natives, American Indians, and Native Hawaiians total only an estimated 10.4 Million, which is Less than five percent (<5%) of the total US population in 2020. All suffer from extraordinary chronic pre-mature mortality. 

American Indians, as a subgroup, have suffered the most with an estimated current population of only 2.71 Million in 2020.

Today, we as the First People may have close to eighty percent (+/-80%) of our population living off-reservation, now within urban environments.

   It is evident Native Americans suffer from extraordinary chronic pre-mature mortality because we as a first people have lost our self-sustaining ways. 

Native People lived in the America's for centuries and numbered in the ten's of millions prior to the arrivals of the western settlers. 

The Native People had mastered their environment through shared knowledge, traditions, and trade. It is estimated that the North American Native Population exceeded 30 million. 

Complex market economies were created and sustained via trade routes that spanned from the Canadian Rockies to the Inca Trails, and from the Pacific to the Atlantic, including the deserts and mountains between. 

Health issues have been exacerbated by numerous years of government subsidized foods. 

Our subsequent dependency has resulted in a chronically worsening diet affecting us physically, emotionally and mentally. 

Native American People suffer from the highest per capita population percentages in multiple chronic illnesses. 

Chronic Illnesses led by hypertension has resulted in our early mortality through coronary disease, diabetes, sepsis, and heart failure. 

These Chronic Illnesses have and continue to threaten our population.
