Recently, he started a China Study Advocacy Group, to help spread the message in The China Study written by Dr. Colin Campbell -- that the most likely solution to the current plague of the 5 Diseases of Western Affluence:  cancer, obesity, heart disease, MS & diabetes, is as close as the end of your fork!  Three words:  breakfast, lunch & dinner!

The main message of the book (& the results of all the studies mentioned) is that animal protein is a disease thermostat.  To the degree that we reduce our meat & dairy we can reduce the risk of contracting the “Big 5”:  Cancer, diabetes, heart disease, obesity & MS! 

The original China Study project was the largest & most comprehensive study ever undertaken of the relationship between diet & the risk of developing disease.
