1 in 10 men will get cancer in America, that's the new statistic and is higher here than elsewhere. I have given some thoughts to the diet, and realized that most of my food are dead food that's been stored on the shelf with amazing shelf life. The doctors have always give the advice of more fruits and vegetables as a general rules to diet. Sugars are the most likely culprit to illness, as they lower your immune and also help ferment bad stuff in your body creating a higher acid base breeding ground. Fruits entering the body lowers your PH to base, and even though fruits itself is acidic, it actually changes after digestion in creating a base type PH.
The new genetic engineer food have amazing shelf life and doesn't spoil like real food, and doesn't contain all the nutrients of real food. The GMO food also have altered DNA in that it genetically produce it's own toxin (called BCT) to ward off insect. Which food are now sold globally that are genetically altered? The three biggest are Soy, Corn, and now recently sugar cane.
I think to stay on the road to recovery, I would be more incline to watch what you eat. I only have 1 kidney left after my surgery 5 years ago, and I am doing what I can to stay healthy. I think in the future, food and water will be the biggest health issue we will soon be facing.
