    You discredit a webpage that cites all it’s scientific sources and call Michael Greger a quak because two people think some aspects of a study he cites are inaccurate?! That’s your argument? The study has pissed off the entire food industry, of course there are people who disagree with it. And even these two don’t question the basic message: Whole food plant based diet is by far the best diet to heal our bodies and our planet. Is that his bias?
    What are you fighting, Commie?

            Well, How Not To Die sold a lot of books, but he claims to give ALL book sales to charity and encourages readers to rent his books from libraries and to friends. Before his bestseller, he was on the road for years giving speeches, sleeping in his car. He doesn’t sell any supplements, merchandise or snakeoil. This is not your typical behavior to get rich fast, is it?
            Yeah he wants to spread a message, and this message is based on science. My public health insurance and even the states society for nutrition (Germany) shares the same recommendations by now, 10 years after How Not To Die was released. To me, he is more like the guy who discovered that leaded gasoline is highly harmful to humans and can’t stop talking about it.

                    Yeah, no…
                    You’re no fighter for truth and justice here. You parrot Wikipedia, you cherrypick by citing only the two paragraphs from people who (don’t even fully) disagree with him, you have obviously not read a single one of his books nor looked into the guys history. You don’t reply to anything I said, you just repeat your false claim.
                    I told a guy who eats 3 eggs a day to not do it, linking a text which is completely backed by science. So please get out of the way, troll, you’re slowing progress down.
