"The book focuses on the knowledge gained from the China Study, a 20-year partnership of Cornell University, Oxford University and the Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine that showed high consumption of animal-based foods is associated with more chronic disease, while those who ate primarily a plant-based diet were the healthiest.
Last fall, former President Bill Clinton even cited the book in explaining how he lost 24 pounds by converting to a plant-based diet in hopes of improving his heart health"
More reason to visit our produce section! (and btw frozen fruits and vegetables have been shown to be almost as nutritious and keep much better and are cheaper, so don't overlook frozen either :) ).
