A health treatment has been discovered that literally cures most forms of heart disease. But not just that. This treatment has a dramatic impact on most of the diseases Westerners face, including cancer, obesity, autoimmune diseases, diabetes, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's, and many many others. And this treatment is so inexpensive to administer that two-thirds of the medical establishment can be shut down as no longer serving any useful function.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's really too much to believe, isn't it? But there's more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis treatment has miraculous implications for the environment. By applying this treatment, we can eliminate the largest source of global warming, and dramatically reduce the waste that is polluting our water supply. We'll also dramatically improve the health and animal population of our oceans and seas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd there's more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy applying this treatment, we'll dramatically increase the supply of arable land, lowering the cost food and allowing us to feed everyone on this planet. Starvation can become a thing of the past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd one last thing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis treatment also has enormous moral implications, allowing us to eliminate almost all of the pain and suffering we are inflicting on the animals, most of which is hidden away from view, but is morally repulsive to anyone exposed to this suffering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow what if I told you that we don't have to wait for tomorrow's \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e, that this treatment has been found, and that the amount of scientific data supporting the claims I just made is overwhelming. The \"miracle\" treatment is simple. It's eating a whole grain, plant-based diet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSkeptical?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI'm not surprised. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut by the end of this book you'll be exposed to the overwhelming amount of evidence that supports every claim made above. You'll also get to hear the counterarguments made by skeptics and you'll get to decide for yourself whether these claims are true.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's my hope that by the end of this book you'll be convinced and join our movement. You may just save your life and the planet in the bargain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis revolutionary book is \u003ci\u003eHealthy Eating -- Healthy World: Unleashing the Power of Plant-based Nutrition\u003c\/i\u003e by J. Morris Hicks, and it is the book that finally tackles all compelling reasons for adopting a plant-based diet -- from the environment to solving the world's hunger crisis. Additionally, T. Colin Campbell, acclaimed author of the bestselling book \u003ci\u003eThe China Study\u003c\/i\u003e, provides a riveting foreword to \u003ci\u003eHealthy Eating -- Healthy World\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter reading this book, it'll be nearly impossible to ignore the truth: people were not meant to eat animals or animal products, and the time has come to stop.\"J. Morris Hicks has done us all a tremendous service. He has put together a simple, clear, and profoundly helpful guide to the extraordinarily powerful benefits of plant-strong nutrition.
