The Dairy Farmer Who Turned His Back on Cows
A boy who grew up on a dairy farm and went to university to study how to grow cows more efficiently doesn't seem like the most likely person to reject animal protein diets for plants, but then this is no ordinary man. You might be wondering what this has to do Cleansing and the Lemonade Diet, just read on.
Colin Campbell, Ph.D. has been studying nutrition for more than 40 years. A former professor of nutritional biochemistry at Cornell University, he served as a research associate at MIT before spending 10 years at Virginia Tech's Department of Biochemistry and Nutrition before returning to the Division of Nutritional Sciences at Cornell in 1975.
His interest in health and nutrition involved him in the Philippines to develop a program to feed malnourished children. There he began to see a link between animal protein and disease.
Subsequently, he became Project Director of the China-Oxford-Cornell Diet and Health Project, a 20-year partnership of Cornell University, Oxford University and the Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine. This study is the most comprehensive study of health and nutrition ever conducted! His book is "The China Study: The Most Comprehensive Study of Nutrition Ever Conducted and the Startling Implications for Diet, Weight Loss and Long-Term Health," written by himself and his son, Thomas M. Campbell II (BenBella Books, Dallas, Texas, 2005),
His book on the study details the connection between nutrition and heart disease, diabetes and cancer; and nutrition's ability to reduce or reverse the effects of these illnesses. It also explores the nutritional confusion of the public produced by powerful food companies and government entities.
Joel Fuhrman, M.D. draws the same conclusion in his book, "Eat to Live" (Little Brown & Co., New York, 2003) His comparison of the percentage of unrefined plant food in the diet of 12 countries (including the US) and the percentage of deaths from heart disease and cancer from these same countries shows a definite, direct relationship. Dr. Fuhrman also is quite the proponent of the Lemonade Diet.
