Kaiser
Permanente is a leader. I have never
commented on a hospital system before but I constantly find KP behind
initiatives I support. Kaiser Permanente, with
some $50 billion in annual revenue, owns 37 hospitals and employs 17,000 doctors, all
on salary. They have 9 million members!
So imagine my delight when I saw the
headline; KP urging all their doctors to recommend a plant-based lifestyle. The
tide is coming in and it is George Halvorson, current CEO and his successor,
Bernard Tyson, leading the way.

revised Australian Dietary Guidelines released this week, Australia’s top health
experts now agree with leading health advisory boards in the U.S. and Canada
that well-planned vegan diets are a safe, healthy and viable option for all age
groups. Government health experts worldwide are finally catching up with the
large body of scientific evidence demonstrating that a vegan diet is not only a
viable option for people of any age, but that eating plant foods instead of
animal-based foods can confer significant health benefits, including reduction
in incidence of obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart
attack, stroke, and some types of cancer. - Read on at: http://freefromharm.org/health-nutrition/catching-up-with-science-burying-the-humans-need-meat-argument/#sthash.MCayQvXG.dpuf

The flesh of animals
seems to be very hard to give up and there’re reasons why. According to Joel
Fuhrman M.D. there are toxic metabolites in animal products that are therefore
present in the people who eat them, and once the consumption of these animal
products is dramatically lessened or eliminated, the presence of these toxic
metabolites creates a hangover feeling. Please visit Is Meat
