This weekend I watched "Forks over Knives", an excellent video that talks about health in America and in other parts of the world. For anyone that has diabetes or heart disease in the family and for anyone at risk of cancer this is a must see video. Whether you choose Vegan or not, this video will get you thinking about your choices or at least it did for me.
At this time, I won't go Vegan, I believe that there is good nutrition for me in meats and dairy, however, I am currently doing a lot of research and have definitely changed my diet. Many cancer patients turn to a plant based eating plan, if my Oncologist told me it would help save my life I would do it in a heart beat....but for now, in moderation dairy and meat are fine. However, I have completely eliminated refined sugar from my diet which I believe is so important for everyone to do. All of the research I have read suggested the same; refined sugars are one of the reasons disease is so present in United States. I will share more with you later on the refined sugars, I am finishing up my research on it.
