Dr. Greger eagerly described the world’s top leading causes of death in the world with supporting statistical evidence. He told it exactly like it was and mentioned what we all didn’t want to hear and that was maintaining a healthy diet. He proved that by simply engaging in a plant diet we can avoid the majority of diseases we just keep our bodies strong. If we’re going to make unhealthy choices, we must do it KNOWING the consequences instead of complaining when we find out we have to pay thousands of dollars just to stay alive when we could have been preventing it all our lives.  We basically, choose to die at an early age.
