According to Dr. Joel Fuhrman, "Americans have access to a greater abundance of affordable high-nutrient, low-calorie fruits and vegetables than any other people on the face of the earth. But a shocking 93% of the typical American diet consists of low-nutrient, high-calorie processed foods, animal foods, and dairy products, and only 7% of the calories we consume come from healthful fruits and vegetables. Sweet desserts, and soft drinks now comprise 25% of all calories consumed in America."

Of the 93% of the Standard American Diet (SAD) that is junk food, 51% is refined or processed food and 42% is from animals.
