National Press Release: 8/25/09

Dr. Terry C. Newman, a retired veterinarian, has been a vegetarian since 1992 and a vegan since 2007. His story is more than astonishing considering Terry was born and raised on a dairy ranch in Winslow, Arizona in 1933. Terry was raised on a diet of chicken, pork, beef, eggs, and cream from the top of bottles of milk delivered to local residents by his family members. 

Terry is 76 years old and has managed to conquer many ravaging diseases he believes would have been preventable had he known the message he is working to disseminate today. Terry died in 1995 (Sudden Death Syndrome) due to an electrical short in his heart and was resuscitated by his wife. He has an implanted defibrillator, has conquered prostate cancer through triple hormone therapy and nutrition against disease. He is currently experiencing congestive heart failure, Shy Drager’s Syndrome (a.k.a. as Multiple System Atrophy) and early Alzheimer’s Disease.

Terry is convinced that disease prevention is the key to a manageable and effective Health Care System. Based upon this conviction he has distilled 17 years of research into a four page synopsis, which he is personally delivering to a list of influential individuals in Washington DC.

Encouraging to Terry was a brief conversation he had several days ago with the Surgeon General nominee , Dr. Regina Benjamin. Dr Benjamin is committed to disease prevention and graciously listened to Terry’s interesting initiatives and expressed a sincere interest in reading his paper.

This week Terry is in Washington DC at Hostelling International just a few blocks from the Capitol. He is staying in a dorm room with nine other men from around the world. Daily he rides his electric tricycle down Pennsylvania Avenue delivering his message of hope (Nutrition Against Disease) to every person on his list. Among those he hopes to contact is Michelle Obama’s personal secretary.  

Newman asserts, “It is time to focus on the prevention of disease by incorporating the concepts of Nutrition Against Disease into our daily lives! Now is the time for Americans to speak up and have a voice in their government. Now is the time to start taking seriously the challenge of making a positive difference in the development of National Health Care Reform!”
