I posted it because it is interesting to hear the perspectives of actual people who've lived it and described other likely factors that play a part in the whole picture......but nobody really knows for sure.
To me, if veganism definitively prevented breast cancer then all the oncologists, surgeons, cancer researchers, nurses, etc. would be doing it, because they or their wives/mothers/daughters/sisters get as much of it as anyone else.
Contrary to what some "wannabe doctors" think, all these medical clinicians and researchers are not "out to hide" simple, natural, inexpensive remedies against cancer because they just want to make money from current, standard treatment regimens. They have a vested interest in prevention and cure because just like everyone else, the incidence is 1 of every 8 women gets breast cancer, which translates to affecting almost every family over 2-3 generations.

I agree. I really object to painting all healthcare providers that do not subscribe to a narrow view of healthy nutrition as in it for the money. I spent almost 30 years in a large medical group which emphasized preventive care. Care teams involved nutritionists as well as physicians, and simple, easy to follow, dietary and lifestyle changes were routinely discussed. Our success was dependent on keeping our members as healthy as possible, whether from traditional pharmaceutical or surgical intervention, or from lifestyle modifications and education.
