About This Issue (April 1980):

• Better and Better Every Day in Every Way: This article critiques the media and industry for misleading the public into believing that health is improving, while studies reveal a different reality. It references a study from Louisiana State University, which states that children are being "poisoned" by excess sugar and salt more than ever before. The piece condemns industries like alcohol, tobacco, and junk food, which are supported by universities and other institutions that receive financial benefits. The article discusses the widespread health problems linked to sugar and salt consumption, such as obesity, heart disease, and diabetes, and criticizes the lack of media coverage on these issues due to corporate influence.
• Our Sincere Thanks!: The magazine expresses gratitude to readers who contributed to the growth of Life Science and supported its educational mission.
• Scoreboard: The scoreboard announces the launch of the first truly health-focused college in America, Life Science College, which aims to educate 100 students per year about natural health practices. The article emphasizes the importance of this educational effort and invites readers to support the program by renewing their subscriptions to The Health Crusader, with part of the funds going toward the new college.

This issue continues to advocate for natural health practices and challenges mainstream industries that promote unhealthy living.
