Scientific studies have shown that we don't need to eat animals to be healthy. In fact the longest-living people in the world don't eat any animals at all. The population with the longest life expectancy isn't the Okinawa Japanese or the Mediterranean Sardinians, but California Adventist vegetarians. They live 10 years longer than the general population and enjoy lower rates of many of the chronic diseases that plague Americans, such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, obesity, and certain cancers.
In this annual DVD series, Michael Greger, M.D., reviews the latest in cutting-edge research published in peer-reviewed scientific nutrition journals and offers practical advice on how best to feed ourselves and our families to prevent, treat, and even reverse chronic disease. Learn how how a humane diet is also the healthiest!
A founding member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, Michael Greger, M.D., participated in teaching Emeritus Professor Colin Campbell's prestigious nutrition course at Cornell University and now serves as director of public health and animal agriculture at The Humane Society of the United States.
