Okay, the story is from People magazine—not a usual and reliable source for The Optimist Daily. But here’s why this is an important story: Most health care expenses are spent on people who could have been much healthier if they would have followed a different diet. Just imagine what it means for society when all fast food junkies would begin eating a vegan diet. The obesity problem would disappear, health care expenses would drop tremendously, more and more people would enjoy healthy lives, the environment would benefit and we may even beat global warming. So, thank you, Bobby, for setting a great example!
