Shape Your Self: My 6-Step Diet and Fitness Plan to Achieve the Best Shape of Your Life
The idea of eating Plant-Based Foods for good health has been known for many centuries. In the The China Study: The Most Comprehensive Study of Nutrition Ever Conducted and the Startling Implications for Diet, Weight Loss and Long-term Health, Dr. Campbell, cites writings from Socrates, which paraphrased say that "consuming animal foods will lead to a luxurious city of sickness and disease, where lawyers and doctors will become the norm"
Plato, also said, "We will eat animals at our own peril." Even Hippocrates, the Father of Western Medicine said that a plant based diet was the way to prevent and treat disease. Campbell goes on to describe more historical knowledge of diet being an extremely important factor in disease prevention and overall good health. And he also asks how could we as a society forget or suppress these facts?
The book is a great read and has very convincing studies and evidence and testimonials about the drug companies and the government agencies working in tandem to manipulate and deceive the public. Because of their greed, power and control issues we have been given false and misleading information for years.
Basicly, the drug companies want us to be in the dark since they can only make money on the hospitals and drugs that only treat our symptoms and they can't make any money telling us to eat our greens & fruits to get us back to a healthy lifestyle.
The book has many scarey scenarios of cover ups and plots worthy of a Hollywood thriller and you'll go away after reading this book, knowing that they are all true.

Apple Cider Vinegar in its natural undistilled form is a powerful healing and cleansing agent. Hippocrates found as early as 400 B.C. that it has antibiotic and antiseptic properties that fight germs and bacteria. It was sold as a health drink on the streets in the Middle Ages and Samurai Warriors drank it before battle to increase their strength & power.

Save money & promotes weight loss We have been making our own fruit shakes at home for several weeks now. We were going to Jamba Juice everyday, but at a cost of over $5 per Smoothie everyday, that option was going to add up. Jamba Juice alone saw profits of over $300 million in 2007. So I wanted to stop adding to their bottom line.
Also even though most smoothies are composed primarily of fruit, they can have a very high sugar content. Some are often especially high in sugar, and can replace fruit with fruit juice. Jamba Juice's Citrus Squeeze is made of orange juice, pineapple juice and strawberries, and contains 440 calories, four grams of fiber, and 97 grams of sugar. Its greatest health benefit is the extremely high dose of vitamin C.

Grady Jackson, a defensive tackle with the Atlanta Falcons, said he used the weight-loss capsules. Kathie Lee Gifford was enthusiastic about them on the “Today” show. Retailers like GNC and the Vitamin Shoppe sold them, no prescription required.
But the Food and Drug Administration now says those weight-loss capsules, called StarCaps and promoted as natural dietary supplements using papaya, could be hazardous to your health. In violation of the law, the agency has found, the capsules also contained a potent pharmaceutical drug called bumetanide which can have serious side effects.
And StarCaps are not the only culprits. In a continuing investigation that has prompted consumer warnings and recalls by some distributors, the F.D.A. has determined that dozens of weight-loss supplements, most of them imported from China, contain hidden and potentially harmful drugs. In the coming weeks, the agency plans to issue a longer list of brands to avoid that are spiked with drugs, an F.D.A. spokeswoman said.
