Synopsis
This exhaustive presentation of the findings from the China Study conclusively demonstrates the link between nutrition and heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Referred to as the 'Grand Prix of epidemiology' by 'The New York Times', this study examines more than 350 variables of health and nutrition with surveys from 6500 adults in more than 2500 counties across China and Taiwan. While revealing that proper nutrition can have a dramatic effect on reducing and reversing these ailments as well as obesity, this text calls into question the practices of many of the current dietary programs, such as the Atkins diet, that enjoy widespread popularity in the West. The impact of the politics of nutrition and the efforts of special interest groups on the creation and dissemination of public information on nutrition are also discussed.

Customer Reviews

Life changing book
This book ought to be mandatory reading for every adult in the world. It is fantastic and life changing! Thank you Dr Campbell.

Mind Blowing
I bought this book as I was sick of going from one diet to another trying to be consistant with my weight loss.
I read a previous review which stated the reader had changed the way she ate but had never enjoyed food since.
I read the whole book over three days, reading the chapters that interested me the most first. There were a few chapters I thought I would never get around to.
However the book enthralled me. I read it all. The studies are incredible and although the author tries to explain why his results haven't been broadcast from the top of every building I am still unsure why I haven't heard this before
Anyway like the previous review writer I don't think I will touch animal products again. I may not lose weight but I will be a darn sight healthier

LIFE CHANGING
This book changed my perception on everything.
i have studied nutrition and it seems everything I have been taught is actually not the most beneficial way to eat.
I have been around bodybuilders and was always told PROTEIN PROTEIN PROTEIN.
I enjoyed eating meat and was eating up2 10 meals aday getting in loads of meat and carbs and veggies all cooked.
now i am changing my way of eating to raw and all plant based, its a gradule change but its worth every second.

you have opened my eyes and shown me a new light and way to live.
im still training hard and the diet actually makes me push harder and feel better then meat ever did.

this isnt just a nutrtion book either, you will learn alot about degenerative diseases that effect us all.

BUY THIS BOOK AND GET THE MESSAGE ACROSS TO EVERYONE.
you might just save a life.
