Diet for a New America: 25th Anniversary Edition

How Your Food Choices Affect Your Health, Happiness and the Future of Life on Earth

By: John Robbins

Narrated by: Barry Abrams

From John Robbins, a new edition of the classic that awakened the conscience of a nation.

Since the 1987 publication of Diet for a New America, beef consumption in the United States has fallen a remarkable 19 percent. While many forces are contributing to this dramatic shift in our habits, Diet for a New America is considered to be one of the most important.

Diet for a New America is a startling examination of the food we currently buy and eat in the United States and the astounding moral, economic, and emotional price we pay for it.

Diet for a new America

About the meat, milk, and eggs how they are not good for you. The eating of vegetables and beans.

A must for anyone considering going vegetarian or vegan

This book was recommended to me and even though it’s full of hard truth it has made an impact on me. It is a call to action and it’s hard to not make changes after listening to it.

a great review

I think it was 35 years ago that I first read this book. it was great than and it is great now. read it and take note as it will do you good.

So important!

The quality and depth of this seminal work is exceptional, informative, troubling and also inspiring. The quality of the narration, however, did not match the tone of the book’s rich contents.

A Wake-Up Call About Meat, Fish, and Our Future-facts not just theory

Diet for a New America is both eye-opening and persuasive. I was shocked by the environmental cost of raising cows for meat, surprised by what I learned about fish consumption, and deeply impressed by the many studies showing how avoiding meat can improve health and longevity. The author doesn’t just say “don’t eat meat”—they clearly explain why and offer alternatives. A powerful read I’ll revisit more than once.
