I had cancer. Do I believe my diet was an important factor? Heck yes. So watch this video please.

It's not something I advertise, but I had cancer last year. My family on either side has had no history of cancer until my generation. I am the third cousin so far to have cancer (and the only survivor so far) and I can't help but think that our food and environment was/is a major factor.

I didn't come to alternative medicine easily. I was in my 30's before I really started learning about nutrition, wellness, and therapies like massage and acupuncture. No joke. I was a late bloomer! My father had been diabetic for at least 20 years, but all that diet information he was given in the 80's was really really really not beneficial. And I cannot believe today how much diet Pepsi's and packets of Equal I went through in the 90's. Is food the only factor in ill health? Probably not. But I do believe it's big enough to make a significant impact. 

So please watch this video  No joke, it's important for your health and the health of your families. As U.S. citizens, we are NOT educated about these things. We assume that because it is on the shelf at the grocery store, it must be okay. It's not. 

At least if we know, we have a chance to influence our own health and the health of those we adore.
