Dear VegSource Reader,

Some really good good blog entries on the site right now.

You can meet my older brother, Jamie, and read about his recent experience -- with prostate cancer. Learning that obesity is a major predictor of cancer recurrence, find out what Jamie has decided to do about it. (Hint, it has to do with going plant-strong and setting a goal to run the San Diego Marathon in June. Care to join him/us?

You can read the latest from our resident veg historian, Sir John Davis, who takes a look at who was "vegan" in the middle ages. Most weren't actually vegan, but didn't eat meat, interestingly. The only one who met the definition we use today? Would you believe an anti-religion, anti-hunting, anti-honey poet who lived 1,000 years ago...in Baghdad? Fascinating stuff!

Help Others Have A Happy New Year

2011-12-31T12:26:01Z

Dear VegSource Reader,

You may know that Team VegSource also runs a nonprofit organization called EarthSave International. EarthSave was founded by bestselling author John Robbins.

Today's the last day of the year, and a great day to help give others a happy new year -- by donating to EarthSave.

During 2011, with help from VegSource supporters like you, EarthSave was able to institute its wildly successful Meals For Health program at Sacramento Food Bank & Family Servies. This innovative program dramatically improved the lives of the participants by helping them adopt a healthy vegan diet.

Please donate to help keep Meals For Health growing:

https://donations.earthsave.org/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=40

Obesity, diabetes & heart disease: rampant in low income areas

An article in today's Los Angeles Times spotlights the challenges low income communities face. The article contrasts the affluent, largely white city of Manhattan Beach with another Los Angeles city, Bell, which is prodominently Latino and poor.

The affluent white city has a child obesity rate of 4%, while over 36% of kids in the poor Latino city are obese. You can read the full LA Times article here.

Why is obesity such an enormous problem in low income communities?

Clearly, it's the food, it's the access to healthy, inexpensive food, but Meals For Health showed dramatically what the single biggest cause of obesity and sickness is in low income communities -- it's the lack of knowledge about how food choices impact your health.

By educating and giving personal support, Meals For Health got people to go plant-strong...and then the pounds melted, the diseases disappeared.

The information participants received from the Meals For Health team cured the problem, along with the novel Food Coach concept EarthSave pioneered. The problems weren't solve by exercise, or by putting healthier retail stores into low-income areas, or by dropping the price of fruits and veggies available in the area. It was solved by the education and support Meals For Health provided.

Once participants learned and then were convinced by their own experience that going vegan would change their lives, they pursued eating this way with a passion. They found ways to get healthy, inexpensive, whole foods onto their tables. We showed them how they could do it anywhere -- and then they showed us how they did it in their own city.

As the saying goes, where there's a will there's a way; the same is true when it comes to getting access to healthier food. Solid, accurate education and friendly support are the two most important elements to get people healthy -- and this is exactly is what EarthSave provides.

Please make a year-end donation to EarthSave

Very few organizations are successfully taking on health issues in low income communities. None has demonstrated the effectiveness and success that EarthSave's Meals For Health is showing.

The solution for low income people to get healthy -- is the same as for everyone else: change awareness and educate about food, show results and prove it works, and the people will follow. That's because all people want to be healthy.

To date, EarthSave's leadership in helping low-income communities has been made possible by your support.

Please make a generous contribution so EarthSave can continue helping low-income people gain health independence.

Day Two of my water-only fast

2011-12-09T09:14:44Z

Email not displaying correctly? View it in your browser.

Dear VegSource Reader,

I am on the second day of a water-only fast, and am feeling quite good, lighter, and more alert. I woke up earlier than usual, ready to get going, and started talking with Sabrina about various things we need to get finished -- to which she responded, "Jeff, it's awfully early, I'd like to get some more sleep, can we talk later?"

Oops! (Sabrina might be fasting with me right now -- but she's actually doing the flu fast, which means you lose your appetite, but force yourself to eat at least a bowl of soup so you don't get too weak.)

One of the things Michael Klaper MD talks about in his new DVD presentation -- FASTING: Safe & Effective Use of an Ancient Powerful Healing -- is that fasting can unleash some extra energy at the start.

Think about it, your digestive system suddenly gets a break from what it's usually doing continuously -- making and releasing chemicals and hormones, like digestive acids, insulin and bile, maneuvering food, processing it, etc. You don't realize how much energy your system is spending moving food through your body day in and day out -- until you stop, and suddenly find yourself very alert and awake. This, Dr. Klaper explains, is part of the early phase of fasting.

I was at Dr. McDougall's Health Center recently for a documentary I'm working on, and heard psychologist Doug Lisle PhD extol the benefts of short, water-only fasts, as a way to give your system a break, hit "reset," and come out of it with a greater ability and motivation to enjoy a cleaner diet.

So I'm doing a 5-day water-only fast. Thus far it is not nearly as challenging or difficult as I had thought. I've lost about 4 pounds -- which on the one hand I'm a little surprised about, and on the other not so much. People consuming a lot of salt can experience substantial quick water weight loss on a fast. But I eat a fairly low-salt diet to start with, so I'm a litle surpised by 4 pounds in 24 hours.

On the other hand, because my weight can normally vary a couple of pounds from breakfast to dinner, I'm not that surprised.

I've been up a couple hours, just took my blood pressure -- 109/69, pulse 54. No food since Wednesday night.

Viewing Dr. Klaper's video on fasting provided the motivation and confidence to do this fast on my own. The talk is entertaining and fun, and he gives a very thorough explanation of the many benefits water-only fasting can confer, and what the mechanisms are that deliver those benefits.

No, I am not doing this for weight loss; Dr. Klaper said you don't fast for weight loss (though of course you lose weight quickly). He said it's what you do AFTER the fast that will determine whether you ultimately lose and keep weight off. And in his talk he tells you excatly how to do that as well.

Meanwhile, I took a few classic books on healthy eating off the shelf -- you know, the ones from the usual suspects we feature at our Expo -- dusted them off, and am really enjoying re-reading them.

Sabrina and I have both done extended medically-supervised water-only fasts before, at True North Health Center, where Dr. Klaper works. But watching Dr. Klaper's DVD made me realize short fasts of 3 to 5 days are safe for healthy people to do on their own without medical supervision, provided they have the information that you can get from his lecture.

Anyone out there thinking they need a quick tune-up or reset to raise your game? I recommend doing a short fast before the holiday season, because it means you go into that calorie-laden period feeling good, and with the best possible attitude to keep it real. Or if not before, then after. It's a great way to start the new year.

Pick up a copy of Dr. Klaper's new DVD on fasting from the VegSource store at:

https://secure2.vegsource.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=103&products_id=491

And then dust off a copy of books by Joel Fuhrman MD or John McDougall MD, and read about the science of healthy eating again, while fasting. Get your head and body into a really healthy space. I guarantee you will raise your game and put yourself in a good position to achieve your full potential for healthy eating.

Happy, healthy holidays!

Peas & Love,
Jeff and Sabrina
