The Campbell Plan Summary

The Campbell Plan: The Simple Way to Lose Weight and Reverse Illness, Using The China Study's Whole-Food, Plant-Based Diet by Thomas Campbell

In the 1980s, T. Colin Campbell, PhD, co-directed a study of more than 4 dozen diseases and 367 items of socio-economic, lifestyle, nutrition, and genetic information across a population of 6,500 adults in rural china, generating more than 8,000 statistically significant associations. Those ground breaking results, along with many other research projects described in the bestselling book, The China Study, support the theory that a whole-food, plant-based diet is linked to lower rates of chronic disease. More than a million people across the world have read The China Study and have been convinced by empirical evidence to adopt a whole-food, plant-based diet. The Campbell Plan goes beyond the why and shows readers how to make the transition - and enjoy the journey - with practical guidance and a simple plan to make a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle easy and sustainable. The Campbell Plan is full of the cutting-edge nutritional research that fans of The China Study have come to expect. Dr. Thomas Campbell speaks to the reader about health, weight loss, and the science behind it. He also addresses the biggest difficulties of transitioning to a plant-based diet; the most frequently asked questions he receives from patients, practitioners, and readers; and the most cutting-edge research in nutrition. The Campbell Plan's combination of practical tools and the research-based evidence of The China Study will change people's lives for generations to come.

"I was thrilled to hear that Dr. Thomas Campbell decided to expand upon The China Study with The Campbell Plan. Dr. Campbell not only utilizes his medical experience coupled with nutritional studies to further explain the benefits of a plant-based diet on all aspects of our health in The Campbell Plan, but also shows how to easily transition to a plant-based lifestyle. I urge anyone interested in their health to read this book because it will change how you see diet and nutrition in your everyday life." -Gary Player, golf icon

"Rare is the physician with the humility and the wisdom to tell us the truth -- that the lifestyle choices we make are more consequential for long term health than any pill or procedure Western medicine can provide. But Thomas Campbell, M.D., does exactly that, and what's more, goes on to explain, in a clear and deeply human way, precisely what the diet and lifestyle choices are that have been proven to lead to the healthiest possible outcomes. This excellent book has my highest recommendation." -John Robbins, author of Diet For A New America, The Food Revolution, and president of The Food Revolution Network

"With this most worthy companion book to The China Study, Dr. Thomas Campbell is once again a superb guide on our journey to optimum health.

When he is sure, he not only explains why, but shows us how. Don't miss it." -Douglas J. Lisle, Ph.D., co-Author of The Pleasure Trap

"I was thrilled to read Dr. Tom Campbell's new book, The Campbell Plan, which transforms the scientific insights of his previous groundbreaking book, The China Study, into an easy to understand and apply approach to getting and staying healthy!

"Reading The Campbell Plan puts you in the presence of a caring, experienced family physician who powerfully reveals the Standard American Diet as the chief culprit in our major disease epidemics: obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart attack and stroke, and many cancers and autoimmune diseases. This is one "doctor's appointment" you will enjoy - and benefit from all your life. Highly recommended!" -Michael Klaper, M.D., staff physician, TrueNorth Health Center, Santa Monica, CA

"As the evidence on smoking and health became clear in the 1960's, doctors led the way by quitting smoking in record numbers. Over time it's become a standard of care to advise smokers to quit. As the evidence on a whole-food plant-based diet accumulates, more and more doctors and health-care providers will improve their diets and help their patients to do so as well. This book is a breath of fresh air." -Gary A. Giovino, PhD, MS, Professor and Chair, Department of Community Health and Health Behavior, University at Buffalo, SUNY

"This book is a wonderful and helpful sequel to The China Study. Tom Campbell summarizes the research demonstrating the health benefits of a whole-food, plant-based diet (why we should change our diet) and then provides very practical advice on how to adopt such a diet, even including menu plans, recipes and shopping list. I highly recommend The Campbell Plan to health professions, patients and the general public." -Thomas L. Campbell, MD, Chair, Department of Family Medicine University of Rochester School of Medicine (no relation to the author)
