It’s quite interesting that recently I’ve received some pretty strong anti-David-Wolfe messages via email and it always surprises me, the amount of vitriol that his message produces in the raw food and vegan communities.

I really get upset when I read about people being harmed by medication, especially when they are taking it for diseases that can be easily managed or cured by natural medicine – a simple change of diet, some exercise, meditation and maybe some herbal medicine or certain therapeutic superfoods.
