Dr. Terry Simpson is bariatric surgeon from Arizona. I've linked to his website....browse around, get another perspective on how food impacts our lives and how excess food can impact an individual.
I found it an interesting read. Hope you do also.
Vegans and Cancer:A Diet of Plants Wont Prevent or Cure Cancer | Your Doctor's Orders |
Really good list of vegans who , unfortunately, passed from cancer.
Which is why I am always dumbfounded when I simply relay the vegans and vegetarians we knew personally who DIED no matter what they ate....all of cancer; all were treated at the best well known medical centers by top specialists. All led "healthy" lifestyles which included spartan eating habits and daily exercise. All were trim and fit...and thin.
All died of cancer.
Some of it has to be either genetic and / or environmental.
Of course, the "experts" then say it is not genetic. Predispositions to various ailments DO INDEED run in families......while some families, no matter how much junk they might consume......remain cancer free.
Go figure.
Great post. Thankyou.
