For doctors who promote a vegan or plant based diet he is the most relaxed with eating animal products as animal products are encouraged but not for all protein sources. He wants the biggest health improvement to eat 1 lb or more of vegetables per day. He has 12 "stations" or food/health rules but if you follow his firs
Overall a pretty good book to help improve health. I found some of the points a bit extreme and would have liked to see documentation as to why and not just take his written word.For doctors who promote a vegan or plant based diet he is the most relaxed with eating animal products as animal products are encouraged but not for all protein sources. He wants the biggest health improvement to eat 1 lb or more of vegetables per day. He has 12 "stations" or food/health rules but if you follow his first you will have improved health.
