After meeting Dr. Michael Klaper in person on December 1, 2012, in Naples, FL, I decided that it was time to create a Dr. Klaper video page. At the bottom of this page, there are links to previous blogs that feature this great physician. First let me introduce you to him in this heart-warming 5-minute video:
Meet Dr. Klaper
In the next video, Dr. Klaper shares some very interesting information about how our diet in this country has shifted toward animal-based foods in the last 100 years. He leads off with a quote by one of our American heroes:
The doctor of the future will give no medicine but will interest his patient in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease.—-Thomas Edison

Want to really get to know Dr. Klaper? In this 82-minute video, he traces the transformation of the medical profession during the forty years that he has been practicing. He cleverly points out that the medical wisdom he was taught in medical school “ain’t necessarily so.” Unfortunately, most medical doctors still don’t know much about truly promoting health. The following video was recorded at a McDougall seminar in Santa Rosa, CA in February of 2012.
