Don Tolman is an author, public speaker, trainer, imaginist, entertainer and experimental nutritional-eating researcher. He has written multiple books on a variety of skill-specific mental functions and self-improvement topics. He has been a coach and mentor for key personnel with Xerox, General Motors, Xerox and Pitney Bowes corporations.
 
 Don has spoken to more than 1,000 audiences in all 50 states and in 7 foreign countries. His media credits include more than 50 radio and TV talk show appearance per year. He has been a return guest on the Donahue Show, Entertainment Tonight, ABC Talk Radio, and he's a regular guest on The Aware Show in Los Angeles, CA, as well as many newspapers & magazines. The late Earl Nightingale said, "If George Carlin and Albert Einstein had a son, it would be Don Tolman." TV talk show host Phil Donahue said, "Like what he says or not; it's people like Don Tolman who, in their own unique way, will impact social change." 

Don's revolutionary discoveries in the field of whole food nutrition have earned him the right to speak at some of the world's leading health and technology organizations such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), the Health Research Academy at Cornell University in New York City and the prestigious Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore where he has assisted many critically ill patients to full recovery.
 
His in-depth research and experimentation have led to many breakthroughs in nutrition. He has studied nutritional fasting for the purposes of understanding mental performance. In this regard, he went 90 days strictly on watermelon, sunshine and air, and 63 days on fresh-squeezed juices. Three times now, Tolman has fasted strictly on spring water for 40 days. In the fall of 1995, after 40 days on water alone, he drank one quart of fresh-squeezed grape juice and then ran a 26-mile marathon. Tolman hopes to educate the masses about the benefits of eating whole foods.

His primary is a natural scholastic(observational) one, based on the Ancient Doctrine of Whole Food Signatures, i.e. that "foods help the body parts they look like", some refer to this Principle as "the Law of Similarities, others call it "the Teleological Symbolism of Plants".  Example, claims that he makes during his seminars include: capsicums/bell peppers support health of the heart, because the vegetable looks similar to a heart including having 4 "chambers"; walnuts promote brain health, since their corrugated shape has a brain-like appearance with left and right Hemi-spheres; that it's no accident we call them kidney beans; and that carrots have patterns that when sliced look like the iris of the eye with pupil and radiating lines like the iris.  Tolman claims that the appearance of  whole foods is a built an innate sacred geometric/mathematical presentation that is inherent to nature, that through natural observational interest one can educate themselves about their health benefits for specific organs and body parts. He admits to having no basis for his claims based upon what he calls todays pharmaceutically funded botanical academically indoctrinated pseudo-scientific research his rests entirely on ancient records of results gleaned by humans over time and distance and passed to following generations in the hopes that disease free longevity could stay amongst their culture.

 Don Tolman has addressed audiences on the same speaker-platform with Brian Tracy, Les Brown, Joe Montana, Patch Adams and Olympic gymnastic gold medalist Peter Vidmar. Don is a distinguished communications facilitator and vocabulary-enhancement trainer. He has studied in-depth in the areas of applied behavioral and cognitive science, as well as neurology, semiotics, operant conditioning and Gestalt Theorem. His real passion is creating applied technique curriculums of accelerated academics for children, which include nutritional eating, as well as arcane and esoteric approaches to enhancing mental capacities. Don’s mission is to bring back the ancient principles of learning in to the hands of today’s children so that they can think bigger, dream bigger and realize the naturally inherent gifts and talents that they are born with.

Don Tolman released his much awaited, Farmacist Desk Reference (FDR) in 2006 after 3 years in the making.  It's the world's first Encyclopedia of Wholefood Medicine containing over 1,600 pages of self-care, whole food and healing wisdom. By using plant-based whole foods as preventative and remissive medicine, the FDR will teach you the secrets to maintaining or regaining your total complete health through understanding principles of health. He says, "If yiou want to know about disease and death study disease and death, if you want to know about health and healing study health and healing." This two volume compendium contains all of the secrets you need to apply preventative medicine and self-care to deal with many common disorders.

In 2010, Fortune Events will be hosting An Evening with Don Tolman | Discovering Self-Care and Self-Education starting in February
