Veith - 300 : Life At Its Best (5 DVD Series)

What’s the truth about cancer? Why is cancer prevalent in some families, in some nations even, but not in others? Is cancer hereditary? What is the leading cause of chronic disease? Is it genetics? If my mom had cancer will I get it? If my father died from heart attack, will I die from heart attack? Can diabetes be passed on?

Retired health researcher, Professor Walter J. Veith, presents the science behind disease and wellness. What can research teach us about what we can do to avoid disease and gain optimal health? Do faulty genes cause disease? Or is it something else? If our genes are the problem, there’s not much we can do about it and we should just get used to the idea that chronic illness, with its long-term suffering, is a natural part of aging. On the other hand, if much of the suffering is due to lifestyle choices, then there’s a lot we can do to avoid the debilitating diseases that are so common today. If we know of certain foods that cause cancer, diabetes, or heart disease, we can avoid them. If we know certain lifestyle habits can prevent disease, we can choose to make those habits our own.

In this series, Professor Veith looks at the health effects of our lifestyle choices. He looks at what studies have shown on the effects of different diet types to discover which diet results in optimal health and longevity. He looks at the daily health busters that set us up for disease. He shares his research findings from work in the meat production industry and looks at the connection between dairy and disease. The series wraps up with a comprehensive look at a whole foods plant based diet.

Is it true that carbs are bad? Could your coffee, tea or soft drink habit really be ruining your health? What has caused the increase in antibiotic resistant diseases? Is dairy necessary for good health, or is it a leading cause of many illnesses? And what about a plant based diet? Is a vegan diet deficient in important nutrients? This series answers these questions and many more.
