WHOLE Rethinking the Science of Nutrition

An authority on nutrition says that Western disease-based medical paradigms don’t improve health as well as a diet based on plant-based whole foods. Recommending a diet of 10% protein, 10% fat, and 80% carbohydrates, he shows how this kind of eating promotes health and prevents common diseases, especially cancer. Campbell is very articulate in explaining the philosophical and cultural reasons that medical science is so resistant to the overwhelming research he references. Yet his arguments are worded in practical language that shows no hint of petulance. Don Hagen is an excellent narrator to deliver this persuasive health audio, which was written in the first person by the 79-year-old principal author. With his intelligent phrasing, clear enunciation, and mature-sounding sonority, Hagen’s performance promotes engagement and thoughtful reflection. T.W.
