Vegan Health

"My AI Diabetes Coach" is a book I never intended to write. It began as a health experiment. In Fall of 2023, an A1c score of 6.6% put me squarely in the diabetic range. My new doctor, somewhat surprisingly, asked me what I wanted to do about it. I suggested a 2-week trial of Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM), and in short order, I was fitted with a Freestyle Libre 3 CGM sensor, and the experiment was underway. On day 1, however, the experiment took an unexpected turn I had been trying out the latest version of Google's Al chatbot, Google Gemini, powered by the Gemini Pro model. On a whim...

Scientists believe that humans have inhabited the Earth for 8 million years, while anthropologists suggest that we began cooking our food less than 10,000 years ago, although much less than we do today. All of the other 700,000 species of animals that inhabit the planet have lived and continue to live and thrive on a completely raw diet. Unlike modern humans, none of them contract the diseases we do at our rates. Based on studies from numerous fields and sciences, historical accounts, and mythologies, we know that we once enjoyed a Golden Age. This was a paradisiacal Garden of Eden where ...

By shedding light on these truths, I hope to empower you to make choices based on knowledge rather than ignorance.

Dieses Buch ist aus einer zutiefst persönlichen Entscheidung entstanden, die im Laufe der Zeit gereift ist und von dem aufrichtigen Wunsch getrieben wird, im Einklang mit meinen Werten zu leben. Ich habe mich nicht dazu entschlossen, Veganer zu werden, um einem Trend zu folgen oder ein bestimmtes Image zu haben, sondern weil ich Tiere mit wahrer Liebe liebe. Für mich sind sie nicht minderwertiger als Menschen. Sie fühlen, sie leiden, sie lieben. Ich kann nicht länger mit meinem Gewissen zu einem System beitragen, das sie ausbeutet, misshandelt und als bloße Ressourcen behandelt.

Like most people, I was born into a meat-eating family. Our daily meals consisted of meat and dairy. What I thought was a lot of healthy fresh foods like dairy products, eggs, meat, etc., were consumed. Though naturally, I love animals. After studying the vegan diet when I was 14, I decided to change my life and have been vegan ever since.

Dominick (Dom) Thompson comes from the West Side of Chicago, where he was lured into the drug trade, as much for comradeship as for power and money. One summer, he agreed to a last hustle. It was a sting, and Dom went to federal prison. It was there in his darkest hour that he had the revelation that brings us Eat What Elephants Eat—to heal his body and soul, he vowed never again to harm another sentient being. Like the peaceful, intelligent African giants, he would start by eating only plants, too.
