Guest guest Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Hi all,Jack Lalanne's 95th birthday has gotten 2 consecutive articles in the SF Chron touting his exercise & fitness prowess. No mention of his plant-heavy diet!I just submitted this candidate for a letter:Jack Lalanne's longevity owes a lot to his diet heavy on vegetables and free of dairy, chicken & red meat!Perhaps others might send in letters, too [hint, hint...]Check out some of these quotes & links:http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/j/jack_lalanne.htmlhttp://ezinearticles.com/?Exploring-the-Jack-Lalanne-Diet-For-Health-and-Fitness & id=2330614"Look at the average American diet: ice cream, butter, cheese, whole milk, all this fat. People don't realize how much of this stuff you get by the end of the day. High blood pressure is from all this high-fat eating."Obviously, Jack doesn't give plant-protein enough credit:"I only eat fish - no chicken, no turkey, just fish. I get all my protein from fish and egg whites." Your E-mail and More On-the-Go. Get Windows Live Hotmail Free. Sign up now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
