For a Healthier World Lead by Example

Posted on March 25, 2019February 15, 2020 by makg1@netzero.com

Leading by Example Vegan Movement There’s no doubt that the “vegan movement” wants to see veganism go mainstream, and for good reason. A world of whole food plant-based diets would promote better health for all; it prevents, treats and reverses many diseases, it’s better for the environment (also a major health factor), it conserves water, it’s a tremendously more viable way to feed humans worldwide, it eliminates food related animal cruelty, and it’s cheaper (in…

Healthy Food Choices vs Willful Ignorance by “Engineering of Consent”

Posted on March 25, 2019March 26, 2019 by makg1@netzero.com

Poor quality of life where it matters most. Here we are at the peak of human achievements, almost at The Jetsons level of lifestyle, yet chronic diseases, like heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, dementia, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, alcohol related diseases, arthritis, asthma, stroke, kidney disease, etc., continue to worsen; resulting in poor quality of life, disability, financial strain on the individual as well as on the system, and premature death. And the damnedest thing is that these extremes…

Climate Disruption: Less Talk – More Action

Posted on December 15, 2018December 28, 2018 by makg1@netzero.com

Paul Hawken, editor of “Project Drawdown”: The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to Reverse Global Warming“, is one of the top 100 most influential people in the world according to Ralph Nader. Project Drawdown is what Paul Hawken calls a “reality project“, a comprehensive plan to reverse global warming. This is important because overall there is not a tenable plan of action with regard to this probable looming catastrophe! Thus far we’ve seen nothing but…

“I Eat Pretty Healthy”

Diet Nutrition Food Perspectives I hear the statement “I eat pretty healthy” time and time again when I discuss nutrition with people. The problem is, the choices most people make in diet/nutrition is based on limited knowledge and biased information sources. T.S. Eliot once said, “Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?” We are on information overload in our society. We have a plethora of information available to us but it lacks depth. Not that…

Plant Based Diets Set You Free!

“A plant based diet may seem restrictive when you first hear about it, but actually it let’s you do whatever you want to do with the maximum amount of energy for all the years that you are on this planet. It’s not what’s being taken away. It’s what you’re getting.” From Forks Over Knives, The Faces of Forks Over Knives, Pam Popper, ND.

Food – Both the Salvation and Bane of Life

Posted on October 23, 2018October 24, 2018 by makg1@netzero.com

One of the most enjoyable things we think about and look forward to every day is food. If you think about it, food is probably the number one thing we think about. And this makes sense because food is necessary and it gives us pleasure by stimulating the pleasure centers in the brain, thus we seek it out. However, food, while an unequivocal necessity for life can also be “the bane of one’s life” as well. But…

Leading Cause of Death

Posted on October 23, 2018October 24, 2018 by makg1@netzero.com

The number one cause of death in America is heart attack! The number one cause of heart attacks is not lack of exercise, hypertension, cholesterol, stress, or genetics; it’s DIET! As a matter of fact, according to a huge long term study, the 2010 Global Burden of Disease, the leading cause of the top 15 killers and cause of disability in America is diet. If you take an introspective look, what’s even more amazing is that humans, the…
