I'll Never Forget That Day...
The doctor cleared his throat.
"I'm sorry, but I have bad news."
He paused, then looked at my father.
"You have cancer."
In high school my dad had been an athlete, an All-American football player.
Now he was sick. Very, very sick.
He had difficulty breathing and was on oxygen.
For eight years he needed a machine to help him breathe.
No longer able to work, my father struggled to do the things you and I take for granted, such as getting out of a chair or going to the bathroom.
Eventually, he could not make it up the stairs to his bedroom, so he slept downstairs on the den couch.
Before too long, the couch was replaced with a hospital bed. (A Hospice nurse was there now too.)
One afternoon, Mom was in the kitchen. All of a sudden, she heard my father gasping for air.
She ran into the den and saw him staring at the ceiling. She yelled, "Breathe, Paul! Breathe!"
The next thing she knew, my dad was gone.
Early that evening, I received a phone call from my mother.

"I guess you know why I'm calling."
"Why?" I replied, though I already knew the answer.
After I saw what happened to my dad, who suffered for eight miserable years, I decided, "I don't want to end up like that."
So I began to read and study about health and nutrition.
What I discovered shocked me.
Do you believe nutrition matters?
"Why?" I replied, though I already knew the answer.
"Your father has passed away."
I Don't Want To End Up Like That
So I began to read and study about health and nutrition.
What I discovered shocked me.
According to recent statistics, 7 out of 10 people will die of heart disease, cancer or stroke.
You may be one of them.
You may be one of them.

Nutrition Matters
Do you believe nutrition matters?
Do you believe the way you look and feel the last twenty to fifty years of your life, depends on your lifestyle, as well as the nutrition you consume throughout your entire life?
