Re: Plant-based olive oil diet (Mary Flynn Ph.D.)

Hi, I'm interested in this too. The title sounds very focused on changing to more of a vegan diet, which makes sense to me. Does Dr. Flynn tend to lean toward eliminating all animal products from the diet like Joel Fuhrman's "Eat to Live", but also focus in on the importance of olive oil?

Still waddling toward better recurrence prevention,
