everyone's education. It is a sign of maturity for all to admit
when you do not know something and here's a great introduction to
your learning."--GARY FETTKE, once sanctioned Australian orthopedic
surgeon and real-food advocate

means for your health, read this book! When you're done with it,
pass it on to your physician!"--JENNIFER ISENHART, writer/director,
