Regardless of anyone’s dietary motivations, the healthiest lifestyle is the one that’s most compassionate.

For sure, to be exact, one seventh of my patients never graduated my program.

I got into being vegan because I was simply looking to benefit from being more compassionate. I have since come to learn that it is an animal-based diet that is responsible for the overwhelming majority of cases of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, multiple sclerosis, and all kinds of other problems.

I started out making skateboard videos. Soon, it dawned on me I just wasnt that great at skateboarding. So I put down the skateboard and just kept going with the camera.

I think it's important for me to show the world that sobriety hasn't made me soft. I'm on a mission to prove I'm still a nutcase.

The first thought that I had about really trying to get sober was, 'Man, I could do a lot of good in the world. I can lead by example and just be this heroic recovery guy.' And that's just a bad reason to get sober. You can't get sober for anybody's benefit, let alone the world at large. You really got to do it for yourself.

I think some of those guys might actually be better off if they had more wussy in them.
