DESCRIPTION: A study of 15,000 American vegetarians suggests their lower chronic disease rates translate into fewer surgeries (including hysterectomies) and medications (including aspirin, sleeping pills, tranquilizers, antacids, pain-killers, blood pressure medications, laxatives, and insulin). Have a question about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/videos/say-no-to-drugs-by-saying-yes-to-more-plants/ and I'll try to answer it! Please feel free to post any ask-the-doctor type questions here in the comments section and I'd be happy to try to answer them. Check out the other videos on chronic diseases (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/chronic-diseases/) and plant-based diets (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/plant-based-diets/). And there are 1,449 subjects (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/) covered in the rest of my videos--please feel free to explore them!

For some context see my blog posts Plant-based Benefits Extend Beyond the Top Killers (http://nutritionfacts.org/blog/2012/01/10/plant-based-benefits-extend-beyond-the-top-killers/) and Poultry and Penis Cancer (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/poultry-and-penis-cancer/) !
