Healthy Eating, Healthy World

Unleashing the Power of PlantBased Nutrition

By: J. Morris Hicks, J. Stanfield Hicks

Narrated by: Mike Chamberlain

Length: 7 hrs and 38 mins

Publisher's summary

This book is all about the single most powerful move that humans can make to promote health, reduce obesity, lower the cost of health care, nurture our fragile environment, conserve our energy resources, feed the world’s steadily growing population, and greatly reduce the suffering of animals in factory farms all over the world. As Dr. T. Colin Campbell says, “It turns out that if we eat the way that promotes the best health for ourselves, we also promote the best health for the planet.”

Like a blinding flash of the obvious, the single most viable solution to all of these issues is an aggressive move in the direction of consuming much more whole, plantbased foods—not necessarily becoming vegetarian or vegan. This book clearly explains how and why we began eating the wrong food for our species and provides helpful guidelines for getting us back on the road to vibrant health and effortless weight loss.

Fortunately, despite the incredible complexity of our current dilemma, the solution is refreshingly simple. It merely requires educating yourself, making better choices in what you eat, and then sharing all that you have learned with everyone you care about. There has never been anything more important in the history of the world.

Critic reviews

“A timely contribution, explaining in clear, easytoread language…how you can make simple choices that will improve your health, longevity, and quality of life…A mustread.” (Raymond Francis, best-selling author of Never Be Sick Again)

Full of Useful Information

Would you consider the audio edition of Healthy Eating, Healthy World to be better than the print version?

It is easier for me to listen to whilst walking the dog than try to read at home surrounded by the family

What did you like best about this story?

It contained a lot of useful information delivered within an interesting narrative

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, it is too long and there is too much to take in one sitting

Important discussion weakened by radical opinions

What did you like best about Healthy Eating, Healthy World? What did you like least?

The author brings to discussion a very important subject and offers the reader a new kind of diet, which should be followed by everyone. His arguments favoring this "new diet" are quite strong and have almost completely convinced me if it weren't for the author's radicalism at some points.

A Very Educational Book / Audio

Where does Healthy Eating, Healthy World rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is one of the best audio books I have listened to regarding health and our environment. It's material that should be taught in school but will never be allowed until the government gets out of public schools and stops controlling the curriculum.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Healthy Eating, Healthy World?

By far the most memorable moment of the book was making the distinction between our eating habits and their affect on the environment.

What does Mike Chamberlain bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Mike doesn't just read the story to you, he is engaged in it.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I think this entire book is good. A lot of the nutritional information is identical to "The China Study". That's good since I hope more people get that message and act on what they learn.

Any additional comments?

This is a very good audio and I highly recommend listening if you are ready to make changes to your health and the environment. They are more connected than I ever knew.

EXCELLENT- solve your own health issue here!

Would you listen to Healthy Eating, Healthy World again? Why?

Yes- reiterate the good information and common misconception that our government and ad council's promote.

What about Mike Chamberlain’s performance did you like?

Easy listening!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

no- a little at a time- to digest it all.

Any additional comments?

A must read- we must educate ourselves to cure our ailments- and resolve the problems and misconceptions within our healthcare industry- and that is just for starters. Optimal diet is a necessity!

the truth

wake up and be kind is the message I got.many of the experts I already trusted

Loaded with Information

This book is loaded with information and research findings--it is not a light and entertaining listen. I listen to this title when driving or walking to help reinforce lifestyle changes I am trying to make. The narrator's performance is rather pedantic and becomes a "forceful" monotone after awhile.

The naked truth

Time to wake up!! Full of useful information to save our selves and Mother Earth

Excellent information that the world needs to hear

I have been on a mostly plant-based diet for about 8 months now and was starting to forget everything I had read and become lax on what I ate. This book reminded me of all the reasons I started this diet and even more. I think the whole world needs to hear this information. We really do need to change and it starts with one person at a time!

Democrats

I would’ve rather then say. I’m a Democrat and I don’t want you to eat meat.

Slightly skewed

Although most of the items in this book are accurate, several items are skewed to make it sound much more dramatic than what it really is. The author says several times that you don't have to have a vegetarian lifestyle but you just need to remove all meats and by products ... which is the definition of a vegetarian diet.
