The diet itself

The Whole Food, Plant-based (WFPB) diet in broad terms:

“The ideal human diet looks like this: Consume plant-based foods in forms as close to their natural state as possible (“whole” foods). Eat a variety of vegetables, fruits, raw nuts and seeds, beans and legumes, and whole grains. Avoid heavily processed foods and animal products. Stay away from added salt, oil, and sugar. Aim to get 80 percent of your calories from carbohydrates, 10 percent from fat, and 10 percent from protein.”

“For more than forty years, Dr. T. Colin Campbell has been at the forefront of nutrition research. His legacy, the China Project, is the most comprehensive study of health and nutrition ever conducted.  Dr. Campbell is the Jacob Gould Schurman Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell University. He has more than seventy grant-years of peer-reviewed research funding and authored more than 300 research papers. In addition, he is coauthor with Thomas Campbell, MD, of the bestselling book, "The China Study: Startling Implications for Diet, Weight Loss and Long-term Health" and wrote the The New York Times Bestseller "Whole: Rethinking the Science of Nutrition" with Howard Jacobson, PhD.” -- T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies. Retrieved December 2013.

The science is provided by T. Colin Campbell along with its relationship to cancer and other diseases of affluence and it has been put into practice with respect to heart disease by Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn and others.
