Hi Carol - thanks for the interesting link. Harvey Diamond is certain
that Agent Orange was the cause of his current condition. That may
be, and I certainly won't underestimate the toxicity of that
defoliant. But I'm wondering if his long-term raw veganism might have
had some effect on neurological function (like Herbert Shelton) and
therefore his muscles have atrophied as a result of disuse. Maybe
that might have convinced him to start consuming RAF recently?

Cheers,
Jo
