  • BUY IT! Life changing if you read and follow it's recommendations

    This book will change your life if you follow it. What ever you thought in the past about the food we eat, you owe it to yourself, your children your grandchildren and every one you know to share this. If you wonder why we have some many health issues as a society here in the US, this book (based on Scientific fact and over 24 years of research) will tell you why. Dr Campbell will also explain how to reverse this through eliminating foods and eating properly. I wasn't interested until breast cancer occurred in our family. This book has become a fundamental tool we are using in our non-chemo non radiation (poison and burn) integrated treatment to remain cancer free. The knowledge in this book will also help you prevent and reverse the damage with so many other diseases.

  • China Study reveals nutrition to be the determining factor in major diseases

    I was sitting next to a grandfather at my daughter's soccer game who had a major heart attack despite being perfectly healthy! He told me about this book and how reading it changed his life and taught him the impact of nutrition on the human body. We talked throughout the duration of the game because we were both steeped in the "TRUTHS" about disease. All those years ago, Hippocrates knew best when he said: let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food! This information is being blatantly held from the public because of $$$. People need to come to the awareness that the final step in discerning fact from fiction is to follow the money trail. You must ALWAYS look at the studies, who paid for those studies and any conflicts of interest with doctors and scientists who are affiliated with those studies. There are a lot of wealthy elitists in this world who would love nothing more than to make money off of other people's misery and suffering!

  • Logical and Compelling

    I found this book to be the most clear and direct explanation of many factors causing and governing our confusion about food, fats, sugars and supplements. With clear and concise facts, research data it lays out the information for anyone to read and double-check if needed. If one is not interested in details, conclusions are clear and concise. Specific chapters address particular areas that you could read separately if you are interested only in or just want to return and re-read a particular portion.

  • A must read

    The book came in very good condition and very quickly. This book's information is vital for health and healing. Read it for prevention of chronic disease and for help when diagnosed with it. The information showed us that there can be healing for cancer which my husband had and now doesn't. Thank you Dr. Collin and Thomas Campbell for this fabulous book. Every one needs to read it!
