Do you and your father recommend moderate, whole-food fat intake for those with heart disease? Or are those people the ones the very low fat message should apply to? Have you seen reversal of heart disease with a moderate fat intake?

Amen, Nelson! As your father points out, and I love to remind people, reductionism is not only epistemologically damaging, reducing our understanding of the larger picture and the bigger and more essential truths, it is also highly profitable, especially for specialized interests - all across the board - food, medicine, economics, politics, etc. Wholism heals. Whole, organic, plant-sourced foods provide the terrific foundation for radiant health, which, personally for Madeleine and me, after 45 years of vegan living and also traveling extensively and delivering over 4,000 presentations promoting vegan living, we continually see validated. The path to a positive future for humanity and all beings is plainly laid out for us and it is, as you say, simple and joyful and liberating.

Beautiful message! I have been eating mostly whole-food plant-based for years now and it has indeed been joyful and health-giving. Thank you for this timely message!
