Guidelines urge Americans to clean up their diets

As i seek to continue the discussion of healthy.... Check out this article that I saw in USA TODAY's iPhone application.

Guidelines urge Americans to clean up their diets

This article goes a long ways to show that all Americans are seeing the need for changes. It doesn't go far enough as "The China Study" would or as Dr McDougal would, but it is certainly a step in the right direction. 

WDYT?

Food, Eating, Diet and Forks over Knives

Yesterday i was finally able to get over to the Forks Over Knives movie at the Fox Theater. We'd been trying to arrange with several friends and family members to see it with each other. None of that worked, but in the end, my brother and sister-in-law were able to go with us on the spur of the moment.

In the end, as a friend of mine recently said, "Looks like my grocery shopping may be limited to the produce section." Whole foods, plant-based diet seems to be the thing of cures.... But it's also the stuff that Seventh-day Adventists have known for over 100 years. Maybe it's time we all started really eating to live, rather than living to eat....

This movie mimicked a number of others we've seen recently (in the last month)

Add to that, Gail and I started re-reading "The China Study" and to say the least, we are thoroughly impressed with the idea of eating more healthfully. As many of you are too....

So, i'm starting this blog to help support and help go forward in the concept of eating healthfully. Anyone can submit a blog post if they email it to me first. And anyone can certainly respond to a blog post in the comments section.

But lets do more research here. Let's ask tough questions here. Let's listen to each others' struggles here. Let's support each other on the quest to move forward here. Wanna join me?
