Dr. Doug makes his case with unassailable logic

But what he is saying is so foreign to our post modern diet and lifestyle choices we literally can't comprehend the truth of it. Meanwhile the average way of eating these days is making us sicker and sicker, and the so-called health care system is making itself richer and richer.

Is this an oversimplification? 

There are also ever increasing levels of environmental toxicities, and it would be difficult to design and mount studies to determine whether the primary cause of increasing post modern diseases are due primarily to toxins we handle and inhale or to toxins we chew and swallow.

Or even, it becomes increasingly apparent, to the drugs pushed on us by big pharma.

With all sources in the mix it's difficult to find a definitive answer, but it's interesting to note that at least one of these three, environmental toxicities, we do not choose to ingest into our bodies, as they are in our environment, but highly-palatable toxic substances we do choose to ingest into our bodies.

So that one is completely under our control. So how do we implement these changes? As Dr. Doug says, eat more fruits and vegetables, in particular the ones that can be eaten raw. 

Fruit till dinner, and salads at dinner, it's not complicated, except in the fact you will be eating more bulk in your diet than you are used to.

Pharma drugs? We can usually stop ingesting these also, as we make healthier choices as to what we chew and swallow.

If something is highly palatable maybe let's stop falling into that pleasure trap, and choose whole fruits instead. When hyper-palatability is eliminated as a choice the palatability of fruits as our healthy choice comes to the fore.

(An addendum to this blog, Dr. Doug Graham has won the British Masters National Powerlifting Championships last weekend, making it two years in a row.)
