    Please open your eyes. I remember when I was twelve years old, in the hospital for a check up and could go to the lobby and buy cigarettes from machines. Now they have MacDonald’s.. Hospitals are not about making people well…they don’t work with you to change your lifestyle that made you sick. They are in the disease business. You have to take care of your own health.

    A family friend just posted this on Facebook. I sent her this video. What she wrote:

    My Dad just had his aortic heart valve replaced along w a double bypass last monday and the nurse that came 2 visit suggested today that he needed more carbs and protien. she suggested a “Big Mac”! WTF…he’s diabetic and 71 yrs old…have IQ’s dropped in the last week? Something is wrong and a multi death obesity corporation isnt going 2 heal the sick…Friggin livid!

    Wow having a McGarbage in a Cardio Clinik is like selling liqueur in a Betty Ford Center!
    The Health System is more about money than health. Healthy people don’t bring money so…!

    It’s strange that in 1970′s we were screaming about bad school lunches, hospital foods, elder care facility foods. And now 40 years later the general public seems even less concerned that ever. I think the way we feed ourselves & our children is an addiction all the way around: purchase, preparation & eating of food is an emotional thing, habit, comfort, craving, guilt, price, convenience & controversy. We live to please our emotionally driven taste buds! We don’t eat for health! Sad, but true

    In spite of the annoying music and bad editing, this is a really good video! It would be more effective, however, if they had not embedded the music and just let Dina speak.

    i work on a cancer ward and the food that we serve to people is awful! i know i won’t eat it. i personally have complained and complained to no avail. unfortunately it is cheaper and easier to provide food that is dead and unhealthy. its ironic that hospitals continue to justify feeding their patients this way when we are suppose to heal people. many families bring in food for there loved ones and many of my patients prefer not to eat than eat the hospital food!

    Typical hospital incompetence and indifference — prevention is the key so you don’t end up being a victim of these idiots!

    A raw food lifestyle with reasonable exercise can sure turn an unhealthy life aorund. You just got to give it a try.
    Great video and words. Thanks

    Yes, avalonwitch, you did miss something. He was not a vegan or vegetarian before the operation. She just said that to the dietitian to hear what the response would be and what they would change on his diet. This is very inspirational……

    Awesome. The whole ‘sick care vs. health care’ was eye opening. I’m a nutrition student, but enjoy learning about the more holistic approach to health- I can’t wait to be able to offer knowledge about veganism and the benefits…what a great story!

    I will not boycott Whole Foods. I agree that what we need is not government intervention but personal responsibility. Only a mindless drone would follow anything that the government promotes. The problem is not now, nor has it ever been a lack of insurance.

    EXCELLENT video!!!! Thank you.

    LomaLinda Hospital serves all vegetarian fare and it tastes really well!

    wars kill people,hospitals kill people,cars kill people, food kills people,smoking kills people,alcohol kills people,all given to you and controlled by the governments, many will never get to grips with the facts that the governments act like farmers ,and the people the sheep, the government are not your friends,so why do you people rely on the doctors who have no knowledge and no love.

    Not all hospitals are like this but I agree vegetarian diets work.

    I remember as a little kid people always joking about how the hospital food will kill you! WHY THE **** WERE THEY JOKING ? Comedy shows on TV too.
