    Keep the crap (toxins) out of u such as… fast food, processed foods, SUGAR, aspartame (artificial sweetners), fried foods (trans fats), flour, table salt, enriched anything, over the counter drugs (like tylenol), prescription drugs, alcohol, etc.

    think NATURE – eat WHOLE foods, not 2 much, mostly plants. Fruits, veggies, Nuts & seeds. Meat if eaten, moderation & should be clean. Grass feed beef, wild fish (not farmed), etc. Marijuana-Cannabis-Pot for MEDICINE.

    Hilarious — at the end of the video she says she doesn’t mention trans fat because food labels say “0 grams”…. but that’s only if it’s less than a half a gram per serving (and then of course the serving size can be manipulated small enough to be below this labeling requirement….)

    Just wow

    fruit is the plant kingdom’s gift to the animal kingdom. The expend a lot of their resources transforming sunlight into a form of energy that animals can use as a reward for spreading their seeds. The perfect food, and the food our ancestors evolved on. Make fruit at least 50% of your diet, better at least 70% and see the difference.

    I totally agree with Gary- I was raised on an omnivorous diet, and all it led me to was excess childhood weight, and a tendency to find myself over-tired. At the age of 12, I switched to a vegetarian diet, and 14 vegan, and actually find myself with more energy and enthusiasm than I had when I was a kid. (I’m now 24.) A side note- I eat a lot of grains, but good grains- quinoa, bulgar wheat, etc… but way more fruit than grains. Remember, tomatoes, avocados, count as fruit, too.

    I used the term “nature/God” to cover the bases of what people believe – whatever created us. I’m not religious. I’ve been a science enthusiast since 1985.

    I was just saying, our bodies are most suited for a plant diet.

    Gary, there is no god – pay attention to science. Don’t be so fucking gullible.

    Maybe you eat LIKE one. People are always repeating that mantra as if to convince themselves their current habits are OK. Mabye humans are in the process of becoming omnivores, but I’d rather not choose a path that’s not working out for humanity. I will choose the diet that nature/God originally intended for all animals before the ice age made it inconvenient.

    FYI, Gary, humans are omnivores.

    The presentation is a little dull and basic

    Notice that the food pyramid alwoays changes every few years. that’s cause it’s always wrong. And it still is. It’s influenced by food companies.

    The speaker is saying to eat 3 peices of fruit a day? …and 7 servings of grain?

    Humans aren’t natural grain(grass) eaters. We’re fruit eaters. I’ve eaten 10 pieces a day for the last 12 years. Too many cals? I LOST weight when I started this 50% fruitarian eating.
