Taking a look at the worst pandemics in history, and how to treat the cause by preventing the emergence of pandemic viruses in the first place (a video I recorded more than a decade ago when I was Public Health Director at the HSUS in Washington DC)

This video is more than a decade old, so be aware that the stats are outdated, but I wanted to get something out on this important subject as soon as possible. I am currently working on updating the information, including with my upcoming webinar.

So now that the pandemic is here, what can we do to protect ourselves, our families and our communities? That’s the subject of my upcoming live webinar on April 8 at 2pm ET: How Not to Die in a Pandemic. UPDATE - The webinar is SOLD OUT and registration is closed. Keep an eye out for the information to be posted as a blog on Nutritionfacts.org after April 8.
