Rochester Area
Vegetarian Society upcoming meeting 11/ 20/11: T. COLIN
CAMPBELL, PH.D.
speaks on “A Whole-Food,
Plant-Based Diet: What The China Study Has Taught Us”
Dr. T. Colin
Campbell is
Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell. His China study, the
results of which were published in 1991, followed thousands of people in 65
provinces over twenty years, and was the
largest epidemiological study ever conducted of the connection between diet and
disease. The study showed a direct
correlation between the
consumption of animal protein, including
dairy protein, and chronic disease. Dr. Campbell’s book, The China Study,
presents his own research and that of other scientists showing “the connection
between nutrition and heart
disease, diabetes, and cancer, and also its ability to reduce or reverse the
risk or effects of these deadly illnesses.” He also “examines the source of
nutritional confusion produced by powerful lobbies, government entities, and irresponsible
scientists” (thehinastudy.com).Recently, Dr. Campbell has received media
attention as one of the major
figures whose life and research is profiled in the feature length film “Forks
Over Knives.” This film has been called “the movie that could save your life,”
and the more than 300 people who
filled the Rochester Academy of
Medicine to view it in September can testify to that. Dr. Campbell’s scientific
and personal integrity led him to part ways with mainstream nutritional
authorities and to recommend a completely plant-based diet. Now there is a
groundswell of evidence and a growing cultural consensus in favor of this
way of eating. Come to our
November meeting to hear Dr. Campbell speak, Dr. Campbell is a member of the
North American Vegetarian Society’s

Whew! Another Busy Week!
What do you think of this font?
Is it easier to read than previous posts?
Let me know!
I THINK I might have room for a poem this week! I'm not sure, but I'll try! Here goes:
Music
By "Laughing" Larry Berger
It all started with a Rock!
Then a yell.
Next came the lyre and the flute
followed closely by
Minstrels and Fools
who in turn were replaced by the likes of Mozart, Choppan, Beethoven, Baudelaire, Shakespeare and the like.
Today
it's Billy Collins, Tupac Shikur, Areatha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, Madonna Cher and me.
The more things change the more they stay the same.
the values are still:
a Bard's tale is worth a portion from the table
and a Poet's song is worth a cup of wine.
We still "sing for our supper."
Food has just simply gotten more expensive!
Neat huh? If you like that then check out my books:
Check it out! See you next week!
