Nathan Pritikin Speech 1978 -- part one of six

[BLUERAY1]

Pritikin was a true pioneer in these brilliant diet concepts. There has been a bit of a movement in the direction of this type of eating with The China Study and the documentary called "forks over knives". People like Dr Esselstyn especially Mcdougall are getting much of the credit for this type of diet. The ONLY difference is that they are embracing veganism ,otherwise, its all the same concepts that Pritikin came up with FIRST but, for some reason, Pritikin gets almost no credit

@BLUERAY1 Absolutely, it happens in cycles, there is always money to be made recycling information and making it look new and innovative. The insights throughout the original Pritikin recordings are a joy to hear. Thanks for your comment, we're not alone!

Thanks for posting this. Yeah, Nathan Pritikin was the man! Its great to see someone thats ahead of their time. This diet is pretty much the most proven diet to successfully drop weight without starving yourself and to really keep you healthy and full of energy. His sons work, Robert, really took it to even another level. I highly recommend Roberts books to see the most current lingo on nutrition with some tastier recipe's.

Please note: When Pritikin died, his body was autopsied per his request. The results were published and he had the cardiovascular system of a teenager.

When Adkins died, his medical records were suppressed. We were told he slipped on ice. Later, with medical records revealed, he died of a heart attack. He was 40-50 lbs over weight and was taking high doses of statin drugs.

You make the choice!

Great post!
