Viva la whole food plant base food and American capitalism

Dr Campbell after his international bestseller, the China Study, published this book as a researcher of cancer. He advocates WFPB – whole food plant base diet for health. In this book, he collects and documents the undue influence of the predators on the consumers, media, non-profit organizations and even government agencies. Citizens are sold on their processed products and follow the government suggestions to maintain good health. They sold you a promise and myth as America is the most expensive healthcare system but with thirty seven in UN rating. Who sold you junk food and charge for health insurance. Colin expose his exploration in the American politics under free capitalism to trap a new form of slavery. This book is a guide and enlightenment for a wake-up call to stay away the fast food and package food for good health. Follow his advice from the China Study is good and may not be popular among the China blind politicians who wage a full scale cold war against our Pacific neighbor. This is a book of truth and will set Americans free from illness and disease.
