This is an absolutely brilliant book, it reminds me of Michael Greger,whose book 'how not to die' was similarly brilliant, and I ended up getting all of his books. Indeed Michael is quoted in this book, along with people such as Albert Einstein. I cannot recommend it too highly for anyone who is concerned about their health. As it is written by a doctor who genuinely wants the best outcome for his patients. The plant based diet is the right way to go, although I have not fully adopted it, what the doctor said about including more whole grains fruit and vegetables makes sense.
