If you're interested in an AWESOME book on "politically correct nutrition," check out Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon. It is a cookbook but is packed with scientifically-backed facts about processed foods and how horribly bad they are for us.
I went to a homeopath about four years ago and she recommended I read this book because I thought I ate a good diet, but still had health problems. Turns out, my food intake was making me sick. I've changed my diet dramatically over the past four years and have amazing changes, including weight loss (35 pounds and counting), my psoriasis cleared up after 23 years, and my stomach problems are gone - I used to be on drugs for my stomach. Also I'm fending off diabetes with my diet. It's pretty amazing.
You're so right - the medical industry doesn't make money off of healthy people. Why in the world would they want us to be well?
