Food, Light and A Cancer Diagnosis with Logan Duvall

The China Study is based on the China–Cornell–Oxford Project, a 20-year study that examined the link between the consumption of animal products and chronic illnesses such as coronary heart disease, diabetes, and various types of cancer. The authors conclude that a predominantly whole-food, vegan diet can significantly reduce the risk of these diseases. The book presents findings from dietary surveys and blood work in 65 counties in China, combined with laboratory research, to argue for the health benefits of a plant-based diet and the dangers of a diet high in animal protein.

Dr. Steven Gundry's "The Plant Paradox" explores the impact of lectins, proteins found in plants, on human health.

Gundry provides a detailed list of lectin-rich and lectin-free foods, offering practical advice on meal planning and lifestyle changes. The book has generated significant discussion and controversy within the nutrition community, with some praising its insights and others criticizing its claims. It remains a popular resource for those seeking to improve their health through dietary modifications.
