I too have met David Jubb. He is nothing but a fake and a charlatan. He is very charismatic which allows him to have the control over the people around him. Can you say Jim Jones???? After reading some of his literature, it was very evident that he know nothing about proper nutrition or anything about physiology. Dakota is cared for by many people in the east village. I don't know if David knows where he is at any given minute. I wonder who Dakota was with when he broke his ankle. It probably had something to do with his malnutrition. Kids need calcium and protein for normal development, both of which were absent in Dakota's diet. To avoid getting medical attention for Dakota is in my mind child abuse. He may have had a permanant disability had the officials not stepped in. I hope they find a good home for Dakota.

I too have met David Jubb. He is a fake and a charlatan. He is very charismatic which allows him to obtain the trust of people. Can you say Jim Jones??? He knows nothing of correct nutrition or physiology, which was very evident when I read some of his articles. He is an unfit father. He is cared for by many people in the East Village. I wonder which one of them had Dakota when he broke his ankle? But... not to get medical attention could have caused a permanant disability for Dakota. That would fall under child abuse.

I have met David Jubb. At first glance he is an odd, quirky person. When you get to know him he is deceptive and manipulative. A family member of mine has been eating his “raw” diet and it has taken a toll on her physically and mentally. I have met few people who disgust me as much as he does. Also his Ph.D. is not in nutrition, it is in recreation. I think he should be put away for child abuse and the damage he has caused to all the people who trusted him with their health.

It's freaks like this who give normal veggies a bad name. There should be a veggie/vegan tribunal that can sentence them to eat Spam for a week. It's just insane to risk your child being crippled for life because you're an amateur know-it-all. (yeah, I said crippled. sounds bad, doesn't it?)

The Swintons were knuckleheads, but not really vegans. No vegans I know would be feeding their kids cod liver oil.

I hope he gets thrown in jail for 5 years, where he'll get to eat plenty of shit on a shingle, whiet bread, instant orange juice, mystery meat and feel firsthand what it's like to have broken bones left untreated. lifefoodarian indeed.

Uh... Doctorates are equal to MDs? Since when? Please tell me you were using sarcasm back there. If not, please get a clue.

The editing on this website has always been poor, but it is simply atrocious lately. Let's consider the first sentence of this post "exhibit A". Instead of adding more writers, please consider adding more editors.
