Everyone should read this book!!!! I can't tell you how honest this book is, and if you read it and don't take a serious look at youself, your lifestyle, and the way you eat, you NEVER will! This one will slap you into health. And the "you are what you eat" chapter is every reason I am a vegetarian in one concise package. Please read this book!!

^^It's about eating well overall, but the 2 writers are vegan, so its partly about that. But if you read it, I would recommend skipping the "You Are What You Eat" chapter, because it will make you cry...although it's all true, its graphic.

I wish I had never learned some stuff...so I wish I could forget some stuff I know...or "unknow" some stuff. I made up a word I think. This is making me dizzy.

I saw this video where an american soldier throws a puppy off a cliff... and I kid you not, it was the most horrible thing I have ever seen. I don't understand how a person would that to a breathing thing. It's too horrible!! I started crying when I saw that, and my 14 year old brother saw it with me and he didn't cry but he didn't say a word for like an hour after we saw it. It was horrible!

^^That is exactly the kind of stuff you need to not read in that chapter! I accidently read a bit, and I still wake up in the middle of the night and cry. I'm glad I didn't see that video!!
I heard a statistic that 4% of humanity has no conscience...its like a birth defect I guess. And 4% of the population is not in prison...they are living among us. The people that get discussed in this chapter...its what has happens fairly often in slaughterhouses, before the animals die...and that soldier are the same as John Wayne Gacy. They don't have a conscience and are monsters.
Okay, enough of this talk. I can't take it.

I'll give a chance to the book. But I won't skip any chapter. I can't do that. I have to read all the book. Lol I recognise that I'm a freak with that, can you believe that I read every single page on a book from the cover to the end. I even read the page that says who published the book and in which countries has been published. I tell you this when I read a book I read every single word there is in the book. Definetely I think there is something seriously wrong with me.

I'm a reader for sure. I've read so many books in my life...and still love to read very much. But that chapter is really hard to read, so god bless you Gloria. I hope you can stomach it. I couldn't!!
