How to Eat to Your Heart’s Content and Lose Weight

Isn’t it odd that people get fat so often?

There is no other animal in the wild that gets fat.

Even humans in indigenous tribes never seem to be overweight.

If in nature every creature is perfectly healthy and trim, why do we suffer from obesity in our civilized world?

After all, hunger should regulate depending on how much energy and nutrients we need.

The problem with the modern food supply is that we eat too many calories and too little nutrition.

If we ate a balanced whole plant food diet, we would undereat on our calories and overeat on our antioxidants and phytonutrients.
