Food for Freedom
Food for Freedom: Reclaiming Our Health and Rescuing Our World, the recently-released book by Dr. Will Tuttle, is an exploration into the underlying cultural food narratives in our society, and how they have eroded our freedom, health, spirituality, and awareness. It aims to provide alternatives that promote these qualities, and to offer a wide range of practical steps we can each take to reinvigorate and liberate our lives and our culture.
The book is available on Amazon in both paperback and Kindle versions. Food for Freedom is also now available in all bookstores, both domestically and internationally, through Ingram. You can also order a signed copy on this website.

The basic idea is that we have all been wounded from infancy onward, compelled to participate in our culture’s defining social ritual—our meals. With insufficient awareness of the consequences of our routine mistreatment of animals for food, we are causing an ongoing cascade of events and conditions that are harmful to us on every level.
For example, most of us understand that we are being increasingly confronted by weaponized medical, media, monetary, and governmental policies that attack our health, our freedom, and our children. What most of us don’t seem to understand is how these attacks mirror, and emerge directly from, our daily attacks on the health, freedom, and offspring of the animals we classify as livestock. We are called to explore the deeper, hidden driving forces that propel the situations we find unfolding around us.
By making connections that we have been taught not to make, we can rescue ourselves, animals, nature, and our world from the unrecognized harmful repercussions of our food system and its narratives, not just on our physical, environmental, and cultural health, but also on the internal landscape of our attitudes and feelings. This is the empowering adventure that beckons.
Food for Freedom is divided into two sections. Part One, “Our Banquet of Consequences,” provides the foundational ideas, and Part Two, “The Two Futures: The Path of Technology and the Path of Spirituality,” provides a deeper exploration into our situation and into the devastating impact of official narratives, in order to illuminate and help guide us individually and collectively to a positive shared future.
The ancient wisdom of the Golden Rule lights the path to a positive future for all of us. All our freedoms, including health and medical freedom, are interconnected with our treatment of animals. Liberating animals protects and blesses not just ourselves but also our children and the future generations of all living beings.
This book is intended to shine light on the connections between food and freedom, and to illuminate what food for freedom actually is. Further, this book is intended to be, itself, literally, food for freedom.

This book is a must for those who are aligned with the unfolding journey of light.” — Michele Lastella, journalist and film director, www.Sustainable.Media
“Dr. Will Tuttle’s enlightening book brings a crucially important message for our time. As humanity stands on the precipice of bond-age to an Orwellian technocratic superstate, Food for Freedom uncovers the layers of misperception that have clouded our minds. It deprograms us from flawed beliefs that have degraded our world and allowed our freedom to become imperiled. This timely book synthesizes a new framework of common ground between two evolutionary directions that have not always been in alignment: the search for personal sovereignty and human freedom, and the necessity to liberate all sentient beings. Food for Freedom shows that these two are in fact interwoven.” —Dr. Nicky Hind, composer, pianist
