For comfort.” “All of these researchers and doctors have great information, but they don’t know how to talk to human beings” “If you read any of my books [you’ll see] I try to make them consumer friendly because if you don’t reach that person that needs the information. You could have all of the correct information in the world and they are just not going to get it” “People are dying every day. They are getting sick every day. People still believe the old [low-fat diet] mantra that was based on very bad science” “There is nothing special about Jimmy Moore and Ryan Lowery.
