The document discusses the relationship between nutrition, health, and disease. It argues that an industrial food system has led to depleted soils and nutrition-poor foods. As a result, most doctor visits are now related to diet, and obesity, cancer, diabetes, and other illnesses are widespread. It promotes focusing on whole, nutrient-rich foods and a balanced diet for optimal health and wellness.

2. Illness vs Wellness We've been lead to believe that disease is a mystery. We have become children of the lie. The truth is that "fighting" disease has not worked. It never has and it never will. The answer is in embracing the principles of health and looking at everything around us through a different set of eyes. Don Tolman
