Theodore A. Baroody got his “doctorate” from the American Holistic College, which is a diploma mill. You can get a doctorate from them too, easily. It only costs about $5000.

His inspiration for writing his book came from Edgar Cayce, a man who thought Jesus went to India to study Hindu astrology. (I’m not kidding.)

The more people buy his book, the richer and more famous he gets.

Why do you trust him?

You like to argue I see.

I try to eat a balanced diet free of preservatives.
That is the basis for health.
A ph balanced diet is a healthy diet.

Well, I guess I do like to argue. :-)

A balanced diet free of preservatives is something I can get behind. Bless you and yours.
