[hsiaofonglinkane]

I hate to say just follow what i eat, I eat tofu and vege only sometime milk and soymilk, a liitle coffee, a little craker and a lot of soup, because I am buddhist, I wont eat animal meat and animal soup period. chanting buddha mantra daily, I feel great.

They cure lots of illness like diabetes and Lupus and only live on donations, they are Buddhists and one named John Tao is a genius!why are doctors not so good?. They cured two friends of mine!that had no hope...

@mwowner12 Grapes :) have a grape diet.. 3 days only eat grapes.. it will clean up a lot of mucus in your system. Also works with polio virus, stops both in their tracks.

Did Ornish's diet (a very low fat vegetarain diet) include bread, rice and pasta? Doesn't this go against what you propose, which is a diet of the types of foods humans spent most of their existance consuming, .i.e. modest/no grains, no dairy or legumes.

@augie doggie;

Dr. Ornish's Diet was mainly whole foods, before man tampered with it. The problem with wheat, corn & any product made from such is GMOs. If we were to go back to clean unadulterated food, I think we would see these "epidemic" disease's declining. By the way, Fat is a part of the diet, from Nut's, Seed's, Avocados. I had the book, and don't recall carbs as a main part of the diet. Unless of course, they were complex carbs.

[auggiedoggy]

@MelodiesfromHeaven : I didn't know that Ornish allowed nuts, seeds and avocados since his diet keeps fats to 10%.

@auggiedoggy ;

I loaned that book out (Reversing Heart Disease) and never received it back. So I cannot quote it 100%. However, eating fruits and vegetables is mainly the diet. Once the heart has begun to heal itself, *eventually small amounts of protein (fish) is added to the diet, as well as healthy fat. I don't believe Dr. Ornish ever recommends dairy or red meats. If you don't already have the book, I highly advise it! It explains everything in detail.

@MelodiesfromHeaven: Read Caldwell Esselstyn "Preventing and Reversing Heart Disease," Neal Barnard "Program for Preventing and Reversing Diabetes," Richard Johnson "The Sugar Fix," and "Forks Over Knives."

High quality, nutrient rich, mostly veggie diet is what I'm eating in an attempt to lose 20lbs in 30 days. Check out my site; I show you what I'm eating.

Lifestyle change works...better than pills or surgery in my mind. Garbage in...means disease. Quality in...means health.

@mwowner12 - Herpes is very possible to "defeat". I mean the virus will probably always be there but you can prevent it from bursting on your lips with just one natural and very safe supplement:

L-Lysine. 2 x 500mg per day for prevention, 6 x 500mg per day if you are feeling the itch or have an outbreak.

Works like anything else. The closest thing to a cure, but it can't be patented so to big pharmas have no interest...

Research away on the subject.

It is so refreshing to find a natural formulation to help with such a serious and common health problem. "Big pharma" sure does have a monopoly on most treatment options (and on TV ads too) it is more difficult to discover a product like this. But Sterolyn sure has turned my life around, and it kinda feels like I'm just taking a multi-vitamin, nothiing complicated.

GOD bless you Dr. Hyman,a real real wonderful person that care for his fellow man....again,GOD bless you........

We ate meat alone and usually the fattest parts of the animal for at least several hundred thousand years. Saturated fat is the ONLY thing that can elevate HDL (which is good) cholesterol which is the only lipoprotein that is correlated with heart disease at all.

If you want a complete overview of nearly all the information please check out Gary Taubes

[paradigm667]

Gary Taubes is a REALLY bad author. lol. ouch.

[rockcityaudio]

so ok we all eat veggies!so what did our ancestors do before farming?

[erkekler]

you know hundreds of years ago people were lucky to live past 30

[ahda81]

our ancestors were much more of a vegies eaters then we are today. But look into our current life food system today we immediately know that;s animal product dominated. Fruits and vegies are for sissys

[disciplineutube]

Speaking like a brainless caveman.

[beachblonnd]

[ngtubed]

This is excellent , I am a Vegan for compassionate reason. Good to hear its healthier as well.

[chikotube]
