Chronic diseases and mortality- The real numbers
In the top 10 leading causes of death, this includes chronic diseases, most are caused by a non-evolutionary congruent diet (high amounts of animal products).

Amla is one of the world’s most powerful antioxidants with a ORAC score of 261,530. It is a rich source of phytochemicals that have various health benefits.
Chlorella is a vegan source of B12, iron and zinc, has strong chelation properties for heavy metals, potential to lower cholesterol, reduce anemia, and boost the immune system.
Spirulina has strong antioxidant, anticancer, antiviral, and immunomodulatory properties as ell as a capacity to combat obesity, diabetes, and cholesterol.
Some vegetable extracts rival leading chemotherapy drugs and at the same time target multiple different types of cancer cells.
In turmeric, there are more than 300 active phytochemicals so far identified. It is so powerful that it can even alter our gene expression.
Vitamin C does not require enzymatic activity to be removed from the body and does not become pro-oxidant but a reduced form of more weak antioxidant.
When you want intravenous vitamin C administered in the hospital, you don’t tell your doctor. Instead, you tell your lawyer to tell your doctor, in writing.
There are no phytochemicals or antioxidants in animal products. On average, plant foods contain more than 60 times as many antioxidants as animal-based foods.
There are nine common nutrient deficiencies on the population scale affecting people eating a plant-based diet. If not corrected on time some deficiencies have terrible and non-treatable consequences.
Nutrition profile of our modern meat, sugar, processed food diet is completely incongruent with our evolution resulting in severe micronutrient deficiency.
Every single phytochemical that exists has a biological action in the human body. Every single one from millions of different phytochemicals.
Epidemiological evidence suggests that A1 milk with the a1 beta-casein variant is a possible risk factor in the development of type 1 diabetes in children, autism, and heart illnesses in adults.
Known associations with milk and dairy consumption are infertility, ovarian and breast cancer, leukemia, diabetes type 1, autism, arteriosclerosis, cataract, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, hyperactivity, congestion, pimples, and more…
When you eat animal protein you have four times the chance to develop all types of cancer. When you smoke you have a four-time chance to develop lung cancer.
Scarcity is the rule of protein in nature. In evolutionary terms, anthropologists have proven that hominins lived an average of 15 to 25 grams of protein a day. In the modern western type of high-protein diet we would consume that amount for breakfast only.
WHO dietary guidelines recommend a diet low in saturated fat (animal protein), sugar, and salt and high in fruit and vegetables as a requirement to tackle the epidemic rise of chronic diseases worldwide.
Fluoride inactivates 62 enzymes in the body, inactivates DNA and RNA repair enzymes activity, it is mutagenic, causes DNA damage, increases cancers and all other diseases correlated with mutations, disrupts the immune system.
In India alone, around half a million people die each year due to air pollution. Air pollution resulting in death is just one part of the overall problem.
Pollution is washed away and will end up in the ocean eventually and algae filter the water starting the bioaccumulation process. Fish toxicity is a big concern.
With vitamin D deficiency we will suffer from a wide range of health issues even if we don’t have a directly visible bone disease.
There are only two vitamins that are not produced by plants, vitamin D, and the other would-be vitamin B12. Vitamin D deficiency is a real concern.
In the health community, exercise has almost a mythical status as one of the best things you can do for yourself except for avoidance of smoking.
Do we think caffeine is something good for our brain or bad or neutral?
What does the actual caffeine do?
Somehow we believe that one glass of wine is not all that bad, or even worse, we believe in alcohol health-promoting myth because of the grape’s antioxidants.
The paradox of the “Plant Paradox” is that people who eat more lectins (beans and whole grains) have less cancer.
People of European descent can drink milk and the rest of the globe cannot. There is, however, a lot of substances in milk besides lactose that none of us can tolerate.
Marketed as a wonder of olive oil, the Mediterranean diet had nothing to do with any oil of any sort except in the measure that it can replace butter and lard.
Adventist Health Study showed that Seventh-day Adventists do have a measurable lower risk than other Americans for most of the Western diseases.
China study showed that there is no heart disease or cancer or diabetes in undeveloped rural communities in the world with starch-based vegan diets.
Our natural optimal human diet is a diet that our hominin ancestors were eating for the last 30 million years, not anatomically modern humans in the Stone age.
Are humans omnivores in a true anatomical sense? There is a fundamental difference in the way the digestive tract works in plant vs meat-eating species.
Environmental toxicity is the bioaccumulation of toxins. Organisms are filters. But there is one more even worse process called biomagnification in food chain.
If we disregard the real genetic causes that cause no more than 5% of deaths, the real reason for chronic diseases is an evolutionary incongruent diet.
