Americans spend far more, per capita, on health care than any other society in the world and yet two-thirds of Americans are overweight. As trendy diets and weight-loss frenzy sweep the nation, more than 15 million Americans have diabetes and our children are increasingly falling prey to a form of diabetes that used to be seen only in adults. If we’re obsessed with being thin more so than ever before, why are Americans stricken with chronic illnesses, such as heart disease, as much as we were 30 years ago?
The China Study is regarded as the largest nutritional study ever conducted, and the results are absolutely astounding. This book changed my entire outlook on what I thought was healthy. Through marketing and lobbying of government officials, we are led to believe that a diet high in meat and dairy is healthy. The China Study exposes the truth, through science and long term studies. It proves the link between almost all out diseases and our diets. It even shows diets high in animal protein can "turn on" cancer growth. No person should live their life without the knowledge in this book. I've read and studied health books and articles for years, and nothing has even come close to The China Study! A must read for any person who does not wish to deal with cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and so much more.
