Correlation does not equal causation

Lower protein intake dramatically decreased tumor initiation

If we are exposed in the past to a carcinogen that initiates a bit of cancer that remains dormant, this cancer can still be "reawakened" by bad nutrition some time later

We humans should be getting about 10% of our energy from protein

Nutrients from animal-based foods increased tumor development while nutrients from plant-based foods decreased tumor development

Good health is about being able to fully enjoy the time we do have. It is about being as functional as possible throughout our entire lives and avoiding crippling, painful and lengthy battles with disease

Lower blood cholesterol levels are linked to lower rates of heart disease, cancer and other Western diseases

Grim honestly and hopelessness are the only things you need to start recovering from substance addiction

Even though fiber was not digested, it was vital for good health. Fiber was able to pull water from the body into the intestines to keep things moving along

The right diet not only prevents but also treats diabetes

Type 2 diabetes accounts for 90% to 95% of all cases

A high-carbohydrate, low-fat diet-a plant-based diet-may help to prevent diabetes

High-fiber, whole, plant-based foods protect against diabetes, and high-fat, high-protein, animal-based foods promote diabetes

Fiber is only found in plant foods

Eating an additional ten grams of dietary fiber a day lowered the long-term risk of colon cancer by 33%
