The most comprehensive study of nutrition ever conducted with startling implications for diet, weight loss and long-term health. The science is clear and the results are unmistakable. Change your diet and dramatically reduce your risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes and obesity.

The China Study was the culmination of a twenty-year partnership of Cornell University, Oxford University and the Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine.

"The China Study is the account of a ground-breaking research study that provides the answers long sought by physicians, scientists and health-conscious readers. Based on painstaking investigations over many years, it unearths surprising answers to the most important nutritional questions of our time: What really causes cancer? How can we extend our lives? What will turn around the obesity epidemic? The China Study quickly and easily dispenses with fad diets, relying on solid and convincing evidence. Clearly and beautifully written by one of the world¹s most respected nutrition authorities, The China Study represents a major turning point in our understanding of health." - Neal Barnard, M.D., President, Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine

Here is just a taste of the eye opening results:

• Tumor growth can be turned on and off, repeatedly and reproducibly, by increasing and decreasing animal protein in the diet.
• Chemical carcinogens do NOT cause cancer, REGARDLESS of dose, unless you eat animal protein.
• The failure of reductionism (studying isolated chemicals, nutrients, and food components instead of whole foods).
• The misleading results produced by the emphasis on decreasing fat instead of animal products in the diet.
• The director of the USDA's nutrition laboratory admitted that if the National Academy of Sciences recommended fat intake below 30% of calories, consumers would have to eat fewer animal foods, which would be the death of their 1982 report, "Diet, Nutrition, and Cancer."
• How the 2002 RDAs were rigged.
• How the chairman of the subcommittee that derived the recommendations admits "I really don't know anything about nutrition."
• Dr. Esselstyn of the Cleveland Clinic produces the most dramatic reversal of heart disease in the history of medicine through a low-fat, plant-based, whole-foods diet.
• Senior staff physicians at the Cleveland Clinic go to Esselstyn when they have heart disease, but will not make his program available to the public.
• Nutrition instruction in Western medical schools is almost nonexistent, and what little material IS taught is funded and designed by the animal foods industry and the medicopharmaceutical cartel.
• Research on nutrition, the CAUSES of disease, and nondrug interventions simply does not occur in medical education settings.
• Dr. John McDougall reverses degenerative disease with low-fat, plant-based diet at St. Helena hospital and now in his private "lifestyle medicine" program.
• McDougall and Esselstyn have both been banned from the medical establishment.
