Plant-based diet reduces likelihood of heart disease, cancer or diabetes?

There is now available a vast amount of scientific research which shows that improving your "diet" (diet = what you eat) can greatly reduce the likelihood of these top 3 causes of death, as well as many other common diseases.

It turns out that the healthiest diet for our bodies is also the healthiest for our planet and it is this fact, along with our*compassion for all life, that has made us* determined to pass on the information below to as many people as possible.

All 4 of the books quoted in http://www.vegward.com/ have excellent reviews of plant-based diet (a 4-5 star rating out of 5 stars on Amazon). As they are all very popular books, they may be available from your local library.
