THE CHINA STUDY

Startling implications for diet, weight loss and long term health.

By T. Colin Campbell, PH.D.
And Thomas M. Campbell II

By any measure, America’s health is failing. We spend more, per ca pita, on health care than any other society in the world, and yet two-thirds of Americans are overweight, and more than 15 million Americans have diabetes. We fall prey to heart disease as often as we did thirty years ago. The War on Cancer, launched in the 1970’s has been a miserable failure. Half of all Americans have a health problem that requires a prescription drug every week, and more than 100 million Americans have high cholesterol.

To make matters worse, we are leading our youth down a path of disease earlier and earlier in their lives. One-third of the children in this country are overweight or at a risk of becoming overweight. Our kids are increasingly falling prey to a form of diabetes that used to be seen only in adults, and children now take more prescription drugs than ever before.

These issues come down to three things…
breakfast, lunch and dinner.

If you are like most Americans today, you are surrounded by fast food chain restaurants. You are barraged by ads for junk food. You see other ads, for weight-loss programs, that say you can eat whatever you want, not exercise, and still lose weight. It’s easier to find a snickers bar, a Big Mac, or a Coke than it is to find an apple. And your kids eat at a school cafeteria whose idea of a vegetable is the ketchup on the burgers.

You go to your doctor for health tips. In the waiting room, you find a glossy 243-page magazine titled Family Doctor; Your Essential Guide to Health and Well-being. Published by the American Academy of family Physicians and sent free to the offices of all 50,000 family doctors in the United States in 2004, it’s full of glossy full-page ads for McDonald’s, Dr Pepper, chocolate pudding and Oreo cookies.

You pick up an issue of National Geographic Kids, a magazine published by the National Geographic Society “for ages six and up,” expecting to find wholesome reading for youngsters. The pages, however, are filled with ads for Twinkies, M&Ms, Frosted Flakes, Froot Loops, Hostess Cup Cakes, and Extreem Jell-O pudding Sticks.

This is what scientists and food activists at Yale University call a toxic food environment. It is that certain people are making an awful lot of money today selling foods that are unhealthy. They want you to keep eating the foods they sell, even though doing so makes you fat, depletes your vitality and shortens and degrades your life. They want you docile, compliant, and ignorant. They do not want you informed, active, and passionately alive, and they are quite willing to spend billions of dollars annually to accomplish their goals.

You can acquiesce to all of this, you can succumb to the junk food sellers, or you can find a healthier and more affirming relationship with your body and the food you eat.

The China Study presents a clear and concise message of hope as it dispels a multitude of health myths and misinformation; if you want to be healthy, change your diet.

THE SCIENCE IS CLEAR.
THE RESULTS ARE UNMISTAKABLE.
CHANGE YOUR DIET AND DRAMATICALLY REDUCE YOUR RISKS OF CANCER, HEART DISEASE, AND OBESITY … EXTEND YOUR LIFE!

“The China Study is the account of a ground breaking research study that provides the answers to long sought by physicians, scientists and health-conscious readers. Based on painstaking investigations over many years, it unearths surprising answers to the most important nutritional questions of our time: what really causes cancer? How can we extend our lives?

“Dr. Campbell’s book The China Study is a moving and insightful history of the struggle – still ongoing- to understand and explain the vital connection between our health and what we eat. Dr. Campbell knows this subject from the inside: he has pioneered the investigation of the diet-cancer link since the days of the seminal China Study, the NAS report, Diet, Nutrition and Cancer and AICR’s expert panel report, Food, Nutrition and the Prevention of Cancer: A Global Perspective. Consequently, he is able to illuminate every aspect of this question. Today, AICR advocated a predominantly plant based diet for lower cancer risks because of the great work Dr. Campbell and just a few other visionaries began twenty-five years ago.”
- Marlilyn Gentry, President American Cancer Institute Research
