Various forms of cancers are are genetic in my family. On both sides.
To me, the best dietary recommendation I ever heard was from my personal Doctor.
"Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants. Jog around the block every day, as it takes at least 15 minutes even if you are unfit. Drink at least 8 glasses of water every day. Don't ever smoke. Come for a thorough medical exam twice every year as you are over 50".
I've been cycling to work (13 km from my home) since. I moved my office to be right across from the bathroom (all that water in winter would barely touch sides before coming out).
I still love my beacon in the mornings, though.
It's worked for me so far. It's medical advice. Not from some quack who wants to make money out of desperate people.

Yes and that's what pissing me off about people like you.
My father had a heart-bypass ten years ago.
Ten years later his body is too weak to survive another operation like that. The specialist told my father that he does urgently need another bypass; but his body is too weak to survive it. He's on borrowed time.
We've had at least another extra ten years of having my wonderful father with us. Due to modern medicine.
Your posts piss me off.

Re: There's enough here to show a need for some real research
The plural of anecdote is not data.

And David Jockers. I think that there should be some law prohibiting clowns to keep on pretending to be real Doctors. All snake oil stuff.

Nope. Not going to indirectly donate money to snake-oil salesmen by registering.
