GOOD CNN NATIONAL MEDIA RUNS THIS.
Just saw show in Europe Monday 14:00.
About ten minutes from start "normal"
video was replaced with Clinton as
a young man. Audio was OK though.
BUT - MISSING RELEVANT IMAGES
WAS BAD FOR THE UNDERSTANDING.
ANY SOLUTION FOR SEEING IT ALL?
Would be good to offer a DVD.
Images do count. DUH. Agreed?
The usual "see your doctor"
is not very helpful advice.
Better would be words to
effect: "FIND a doctor"
(who understands topic).
CHEERS
There is hope for American media if CNN can run a presentation such as this. A real challenge in a corporate controlled mass media! Let's hope a large percentage of the USA public sees this. Good ideas need repeating. A BIG plus of the show was the manner of Dr. Gupta. He is unlikely to turn off anyone by being strident. The evidence for a plant-based dietary is compelling. But facts alone - even offered in perfect logic - are often ignored if the presenter is not perceived as an unbiased likable "nice guy" such as Dr. Gupta.
He leaned over backwards to be fair to the advocates of heart surgery and allowed meat and dairy lobby folks to repeat their simple recycled misleading statements. Contrast messages of heart surgery proponents with that of Dr. Esselstyn. For anyone "reading between the lines" this show was a very wonderful summary. Let's spread the word!
GOOD ? THREE MONTHS LATER, IS THAT IT ? ? ?
More debunking than thou? Final conclusions?
VERY FRUSTRATING NOT TO HAVE CLOSURE. Please.
Another area that I'd like to see some FINAL word on is the periodic specifying of SKIM milk in Recipes by SOME vegan or near-vegan gurus. Names omitted to protect the guilty. Are not conclusions of T.C. Campbell conclusive here? Can ANY argument be made for using ANY dairy product? Or can a case be made that animal protein under 10% is OK? This remains uncertain in my mind. Personally, I avoid dairy the best I can - unless hidden in something.
Inquiring minds want to know. CHEERS.

I agree with Rethinking 2000 about a genuinely ethical rational National Health Plan. In defense of Whole Foods, I find it very good that they are working with Rip Esselstyn and Joel Fuhrman to promote healthy life styles. Canola oil? I would respectfully suggest that swaninlake consider avoid adding ANY oil in recipies. For starters search "Brachial Artery Tourniquet Test" (500 hits) and "Caldwell Esselstyn" (28,600 hits including 150 videos) for reasons why. This is a hot topic.
