“Compared with the diet that fueled human evolution, the so called “affluent” diet of today has twice the amount of fat, a much higher ratio of saturated to unsaturated fatty acids, a third of the former daily fiber intake, much more sugar and sodium, fewer complex (fruit and vegetable) carbohydrates, and a reduced intake of micro nutrients. World-wide, the adoption of this diet has been accompanied by a major increase in coronary heart disease, stroke, various cancers, diabetes and other chronic diseases.”1
Dr. John believes that eating organic foods and including 3 to 4 raw servings of food in your daily diet will provide you with the best health. Also, ensuring that you have sufficient Omega 3 fatty acids in your diet is very important. It is necessary for proper function of the heart, the brain and every other cell, tissue, organ and gland in the body.
