The modern diet is responsible for dramatic increases in obesity, diabetes, stroke, some cancers and heart disease. The World Health Organization estimates that between 60 and 75% of the above diseases are caused by Diet, Smoking and Lack of Exercise.

The rise in disease rates, particularly in the young, is creating increased health costs that threaten to cripple Western economies. America now spends 13% of its GNP on health costs, France 9.5% and Germany 10.6%. These costs are projected to rise dramatically in the next ten years with an aging population and more demand for services.

The modern Western diet makes a direct and massive impact on world food resources. You would save more water by not eating a pound of beef than you would by not showering for a year. It takes over four pounds of grain and beans to create one pound of meat. The waste of this food denies millions of people in poor countries adequate nutrition and is a main cause of world hunger not to mention the ethical dilemma of killing over 45 Billion animals every year.

The vice president of pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline casually stated publicly last year that 90% of the drugs they sell only work on 30 – 50% of the people.The American Medical Association agrees that 100,000 patients die each year from “properly prescribed drugs”; this is ten times the number of those who die from illegal drugs.
