i absolutely agree i help people with cancer all the time and most push providers push being a vegan mainly for its increase alkaline state however i find that some people need some animal products and fats along with the other things that we do for them , detox , increased co2, increased hydrogen increased oxygen ewot , ect are al part of the keys in making the body anticancer
consider the blue zones in loma linda calif. a group of mainly seventh day adventists mainly vegetarian diet lived years longer than the regular population.
I was SDA and lived in Loma Linda for several years. I'm addition to being vegetarian (the majority include milk, cheese and eggs). They also don't smoke and don't drink alcohol. When the stats account for non smoking and non drinking cohorts, they don't live any longer. In other words, their longevity entirely accounted for by factors other than diet, namely not smoking cigarettes and not drinking alcohol.
So, there is an effect that they call the Healthy Volunteer Effect, whereby people who agree to be studied are of superior health to the mainstream.
The Seventh Day Adventists live a different life. They are religious, they have close family ties and community ties, they are active.
The EPIC-Oxford shows that people who are very healthy are okay on animals, or plants or a combination. Probably about equally healthy.
My contention is that it is easier to be healthy on a diet that includes dairy, eggs and some meat and fish and seafood, occasional liver, even if they are not already extraordinarily healthy and fit.
We have to work with what we have, where we are at. Most of the folks I work with are not healthy like those Blue Zone people, and it's much more than just diet.
You could have just as easily written an article about Dr Esselstein, cardiovascular surgeon with the Cleveland clinic. Nearly 90 now eating the same diet and looking, dare I say better than you - and me. This report is totally unfair because people die for reasons that have nothing to do with their diet, and what's worse you don't know why he died.
Herbert Shelton, founder of natural hygiene and vegan. Lived to 90
Virginia Vertrano, co founder of NH, vegan. Lived to 92
Gerald Benish, co founder of NH, mine and my family's personal health advisor, vegan. Lived to 90
Alec Burton, M.Sc., D.O.(U.K.), M.R.O., MIAHP vegan. Lived to 86
Ellsworth Wareham, an American surgeon, vegan. Lived 104 years.
This all needs to be looked at from a probabilistic perspective. Eating a healthy diet increases your probability of living a long healthy life. It does not guarantee it. Some smokers live to a ripe old age. Does that imply anything about the health effects of smoking? I have no idea if eating a 100% plant based diet is healthy or not but the science implies that eating a mostly plant based diet is better for your health.

Doesn't Esselstyn evangelize essentially the same diet?
Absolutely
