About this listen

First published in 1974 and even more relevant today, a natural and whole foods guide the voice of Black consciousness, cultural icon Dick Gregory, the incomparable satirist, human rights and environmental activist, health advocate, social justice champion, and author of the NAACP Image Award-winning Defining Moments in Black History: Reading Between the Lies.

Written with Dick Gregory’s irreverent wit and informed by his deep intelligence, Dick Gregory’s Natural Diet for Folks Who Eat is for real people who are concerned about their health and wellness. Gregory offers an enlightening introduction to natural foods, and offers a wickedly amusing and informative assessment of how our modern diet damages the human digestive tract, and raises our consciousness about the political power of food. Gregory argues that how you treat yourself and your body reflects how you treat others. He discusses various fasts and the ones he’s done for both political and health reasons, hunger in America, navy beans, and how Americans are changing the way they eat - the beginning of a movement in the 1970s that is still felt today. He offers suggestions on diets to help you gain or lose pounds and offers advice on natural substitutes for favorite alcoholic drinks.

"An introduction to natural foods written with an eye to good health and an ear for the witty line. Even for those not ready to replace sirloin with soy bean, Gregory's discourse on the typical mistreatment of the digestive tract should be informative - it certainly is amusing. There are sections on Gregory's various fasts, suggested diets for putting on and taking off weight, and even a discussion of natural food substitutes for your favorite alcoholic concoction. Good fun and a good guide for those who feel they are what they eat." (New York Times)

I like how he explained how fasting and a plant based mainly raw food lifestyle with Mother Nature will help you live a long and healthy life. Letting us know that Mother Nature and Father God have provided us with food as medicine to cure not just a few dis-eases but all dis-eases.

These steps to health should be provided by doctors, who know them well. Unfortunately, it is much more profitable for them to just hand over prescriptions. Here, Dick Gregory shares his own experiences, struggles, realizations, understandings, awareness, and outcome benefits through his journey on a path to devine health. Read and be enlightened.
