This is not a short term diet, this is a prescription for life. If [...]

Why Is It Bad To Feed The Animals?
Amazing! This photo was taken by someone outside a restaurant in a U.S. National Park. I was in Dr. John McDougall’s forum and saw this photo. The person who posted it was kind enough to give me permission to use it. So, what species does adapt well to salt, fat and preservatives? 65% of [...]
