Quotes by Don Hall (?)

“Now here’s a gift: numerous studies have shown that people who eat dark chocolate regularly (in moderate amounts) have lower rates of heart disease than those who don’t! The cocoa in the chocolate is a very potent antioxidant and so may be the element most responsible for chocolate’s protective role.”
― Don Hall, The Vegetarian Advantage

“recent newsletter says that scientists at Tufts University now estimate that 70 percent of all diseases—including a third of all cancers—are related to diet.”
