Short notice, but if you live in or around Portland, Oregon, I hope you can attend! I will be giving a free public presentation covering my dietary plan on Tuesday, May 6 at Portland State University in the Smith-Memorial Building, Room 338, (the Vanport Room).
My presentation will begin promptly at noon and last an hour, followed by a half-hour for your questions. After that, I will be signing copies of my new book, The No-Grain Diet, for anyone who brings one along. Limited quantities will also be available for sale.
This presentation was voluntarily organized through the suggestion and efforts of Joshua Dallman, a pre-med student focused on naturopathic medicine studies at PSU, along with the help of Diane McQueen-Smith, a Mercola.com newsletter subscriber with extensive special events planning experience, so a big thanks to both of them. It is being sponsored by Portland State University’s OSPIRG group.
In my presentation, I will cover essentials of The No-Grain Diet such as:
Why over-consumption of grains and sugars, especially in processed foods, have been the major culprit behind various chronic diseases and the overweight/obesity epidemic
The myth of low-fat & low-protein, and the "Food Pyramid"
How the Atkins Diet, while a start, can pose serious health risks
The importance of consuming good vs. bad carbohydrates
Overcoming the emotional challenges of dieting, such as cravings and self-image issues
Why almost all vitamin supplements are unnecessary
The dangerous lack of omega-3 in most Americans diets, and how to change that when almost all world sources of fish are now contaminated with mercury
And much more
Again, after my one-hour presentation beginning at noon at the Smith-Memorial Center at Portland State University, audience members will be able to ask questions for a half-hour. After that, I’d be honored to sign your copy of The No-Grain Diet and say hello to you personally. Limited quantities of The No-Grain Diet will be available for sale, as well.
