    Hey all, one minor correction from the vid. Dr. Wilson apologizes for misspeaking at 2:13 - Adventists believe the millennium will take place in heaven, not on earth. I should have caught that for him. He got it right in his book, which I heartily recommend: iupress.org/9780253014474/dr-john-harvey-kellogg-and-the-religion-of-biologic-living/

    Hey Adam! I especially enjoyed this video as a Battle Creek native. My great grandmother, Bernice Lowe, wrote "Tales of Battle Creek" which was a big reason we know all the history of Battle Creek, MI. They used to call her the "Attic Archeologist". With Battle Creek history so ingrained in my family history, it was very refreshing to see this covered so well and exhaustively. I have no complaints. Let me know if you have any more questions about Battle Creek! My grandmother loves talking about her mother and the history she found.

    As a Seventh-day Adventist it's weird hearing past tense or a lot of description of some things that are normal for me because it's unusual for most other modern Christians when referring to us as a group (and no, we're not into eugenics if anyone's curious, and while some of the views Kellogg held are based on our principles, his views are not representative of us in general, especially nowadays), also while we do believe Adam and Eve were vegetarian, that's just a minor reason for why they lived so long, it's more to do with literally being "built different" from us nowadays because of the effects of sin

    Though on the other hand I suspect Sanitarium donates a substantial amount of money, probably to ADRA, because of close church relation, but still charity (yes, ADRA is the Adventist relief arm). Do you remember the "Nine out of ten nutritionists recommend kids eat Weet-Bix" commercial of the 90s? I remember an update video that had several of the Sanitarium staff doing a parody of it. The real joke (which honestly my 20-yr-old butt needed to have explained) was the guy who did the "What is a budget?" bit was the company's head of finance. That video was put on one Saturday at church in the general news part of the main service.
