In The China Study he delves into the scientific relationships between protein, Afltatoxin, enzymes, and the effect that protein intake has on cancer initiation. T. Colin Campbell then explains a study involving various tests he performed on rodents that revealed the effects of giving one group of rodents a…

7 reasons our grandparents didn’t have food allergies—but we do Children keep getting frailer with each passing generation. Here are some of the things we are doing wrong.
Food allergies are seemingly worsening all the time, with children becoming frailer than each preceding generation. In other words, our grandparents didn’t have many food allergies, while we have them aplenty. Let’s explore some of the reasons for this. 1. They ate seasonal real food.
