More than 30 years ago, nutrition specialist T. Colin Campbell started the China Study, the largest study ever undertaken on the links between nutrition and the health conditions. Combined with studies in Colin’s laboratory, what they found opened their eyes to the dangers of a diet rich in animal protein and the health benefits of a plant-based only diet. In 2005, Colin and his son Tom, now a surgeon, shared these results with the world, hailed as one of the most important books ever published on diet and nutrition. Including entirely new material, this extensively revised version of Colin and Tom’s pioneering book provides the newest definitive facts of plant-based diet strength, as well as comprehensive data on the evolving healthcare landscape and how people will benefit from greater interest in plant-based food.
