Synopsis

Book by Irving David Gerow

A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

David Irving has written a masterpiece of investigation into the mysteries of why people continue to eat a diet that damages their long-term health. This is a must-read for all health-care and public policy professionals, and especially for all students in those fields. Better yet, it is a must-read for anyone who eats. --(George Eisman, MA, MSC, RD, Author of the popular The Most Noble Diet and Don't Let Your Diet Add to your Cancer Risk)

An incisive analysis of current key public health concerns, deserving a must-read recommendation. --(Dr. Samuel S. Epstein, Author of The Politics of Cancer, Professor Emeritus at the University of Illinois School of Public Health.)

The Protein Myth is a powerful indictment of the healthcare establishment for ignoring the evidence that could save the lives of millions of people. At the same time, it's a vivid portrayal of how our treatment of animals is ruining the health of the nation and stealing the public s wealth. The Protein Myth shows that compassion toward other species is not merely an act of kindness. It is what is required to restore our health and move us toward a world without slavery, genocide or war. --John Robbins, author of The New Good Life: Living Better in an Age of Less, The Food Revolution, and Diet for a New America.

David Irving reveals the science which can eliminate our common chronic killing diseases. His blistering exposé of the politics, institutions, corporations, and governments which are geared to thwart this life-saving message is a powerful read. --Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., MD, Author of Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The Protein Myth illustrates how we can avoid the major killer diseases by eliminating animal products from the diet. It challenges our healthcare organizations to stop ignoring the scientific evidence that a diet based on animal protein costs millions of lives. For example, why do they ignore telling the public that avoiding animal protein could prevent breast cancer for many women by lowering estrogen levels? The book also links the Western diet to many of the problems facing the world such as 1) the pollution of our atmosphere, rivers and streams, 2) the mass production of meat and dairy products on factory farms which is extremely cruel to animals, 3) the needless vivisection of animals at university laboratories for the sole purpose of getting billions of tax dollars from the public, 4) the manufacture of drugs to treat counterfeit diseases, 5) obesity in children, and 6) the creation of poverty in the developing world. The Protein Myth makes a compelling case that the way to a healthier life and a better world is to end our exploitation of animals.
