Guest: Dr. Hans Diehl

Dr. Hans Diehl is director of the Lifestyle Medicine Institute of Loma Linda, California. His pioneering efforts with Nathan Pritikin and Dr. Denis Burkitt have shown conclusively that many of today’s diseases are truly reversible through some simple lifestyle changes. As a best-selling author, researcher, dynamic speaker, and top-ranking motivator, he has lectured to corporations and governments and has presented seminars on four continents. The CHIP program itself was born in the winter of 1988 when Dr. Diehl was invited to conduct a 4-week lifestyle change program in Creston, British Columbia, a community of about 5,000. Some 400 persons accepted the challenge to take responsibility for their health and became charter members of the first CHIP program. Following the Creston experience Dr. Diehl went on to conduct multiple live programs in Canada, India, Australia, and the United States. Because he cannot respond to all the invitations for live CHIP programs, Dr. Diehl decided to produce a Video-CHIP series that is being used very effectively in a variety of settings.
