Today is the 81st birthday of T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D., author of *THE CHINA STUDY, WHOLE and THE LOW CARB FRAUD. Why do I love this man? Why are thousands of people around the world joining me in celebrating his birthday? Because he has changed our lives for good!
Somehow I missed the publication of THE CHINA STUDY in 2005. Maybe I just wasn’t ready to “digest” the relationship between diet and disease. But by 2011 when I learned that Bill Clinton had reversed his heart disease and lost a significant amount of weight through Plant-Based eating as recommended by T. Colin Campbell, I was ready!
T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D., Jacob Gould Schurman Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell, is a scholar, researcher, educator, lecturer, writer and food and health policy expert. His life and work are featured in the life-changing documentary film FORKS OVER KNIVES. His clarity, courage and conviction in the face of confusing scientific and medical reports are evident to anyone seeking nutritional truth for optimal health.
Campbell is a hero to many. His nutritional studies have impacted the health of thousands. Lives have been changed, health has been restored and countless people are sending their messages of gratitude and admiration to America’s premier nutritionist. The following are some of the birthday wishes posted on Face Book to Dr. Campbell:
“Thank you for the China Study: You changed the course of my life.”
“Thanks Dr. Campbell for everything you have done. You have a special place in our lives. What you accomplished and the way you have been so dedicated to helping people is above and beyond. We are doing all we can to pass this along to others.”
