    I was a wreck in college. Eating junk food, smoking cigarettes, and drinking. I was so self-loathing and depressed. Nothing was working. A yoga class inspired me to use holistic health to heal. I started doing yoga every day, eating a whole-foods diet, going for walks, I quit alcohol and cigarettes. Within 3 months I was off all medications. After 1 year I had dropped 50 lbs. I started getting straight As and loving my life. Its been 12 years since then and I am still a happy, healthy person.

      Awesome! I'm in tears reading how you were able to turn your life around by treating your body the way it wanted to be treated. I'm dealing with a 17 year old daughter (HS Senior) who's experienced 3 manic episodes this year. I'm adament that her diet and exercise will make a world of difference for her overall health as well. You have inspired me. I pray you are continued to be blessed.

    If you're wondering why this video has 10,000 views not 10,000,000. It's because it threatens the food industry. The multi billion dollar processed food industry.

    Indian soup called sambar makes me very happy. South Indian watery, spicy with Moringa pods called drumsticks and lentil soup. So tasty and full of vegetable variety. One doesn't have to suffer with kale salad. You can eat healthy and still satisfy your taste buds and your belly.

    I'm doing a bit of research for a behavioral health group I am a dietitian for. I think a wide range of people will be able to relate to your talk . Starting on the couch, branching away from western food addictions and reaching toward healthier seafood, beans and leafy greens is a realistic approach for a positive mind and healthier body. Thank you for an entertaining and interesting 15 minutes that I plan to share. Keep it up! - Jennifer MS, RDN

    Dr Georgia Eades, also a nutritional psychiatrist has interpreted research to explain how important beef, chicken is in our diets. Plants are covered in chemicals and sadly it’s ignored.
    I am on a quest to find current, accurate and relevant information. So much to decipher and think through.
    Ruminant animals…cows…have 4 stomachs and they digest the plants they eat so thoroughly that the meat we eat from them does not have the harmful chemicals. It’s is thought that autoimmune diseases are caused by the harmful chemicals in the plant food that is eaten. Who knows? Definitely food for thought.

    Getting this idea to the practice level is hindered mightily by cost. Affording a plethora of fresh vegetables, seafood, nuts, and high quality EVOO...flat out not attainable for most people. What would help is if people could afford these foods. Next, let's say there is an economic miracle and folks can afford these foods, how do families get those foods in their gut? By that I mean, realistically, can the average family really prepare a healthy breakfast every morning? Can the average family prepare a healthy lunch to take to work and school? Keep in mind that a school child has no access to refrigeration, so anything prepared at home and brought to school needs to be "shelf stable". Which family member will be tapped at the end of an exhausting work day to prepare a healthy meal? Which family member will then clean up after that meal?
