47:100 animal vegetable or mineral?

47:100 animal vegetable or mineral?

the value of a plant based diet explored
in this 1-1/2 hour documentary aired on pbs
called 'eating'
*note- please screen this before allowing your young
children to see this adult geared information.
there are graphic depictions towards the end of
the film dealing with factory farming.




even if you don't agree with everything
there is enough here to give pause for consideration.
i personally don't think there is any one thing that can
eradicate all health problems & greed (save God's kingdom)
i know very healthy people who get sick and die
but right now, every little bit helps!
small changes = big returns

stay safe & healthy-
