Hey everyone...

Just had to Post this one, as it really does focus on the sort of things that I am personally of the opinion could help us all overcome our illnesses in the simplest of ways; by eating the right way...

This is a most engaging TED TALK, and even though it is a tad older... it is still great Food for Thought. Pardon the intended pun.

Hey ggrana...

You are most welcome... I found it something that perhaps we all ought to take more notice of... Simple stuff really in the end, and prevention is always better than cure, in my view...

Hey Poppy...

Yes, apparently eating the wrong things hey... Who would of thought that putting the wrong things in one's mouth could help us contract a long term chronic illness...

Should have been a no–brainier really, I guess...

Thanks for this. Very interesting. Given that this was 9 years ago, it seems strange that diet doesn't figure more highly in research. There does seems to be a lot of overlap with the anti inflammatory diet.

Hey Bluetop...

Yes, curious perhaps, but unfortunately, (& being the cynic I am), there appears to be a very simple equation at work here...

There's more money in pharmaceuticals than there is in advising people concerning how best to eat to avoid certain problems w/ their health, in my view...

Yet, if one were to calculate the savings the health system might reap from a more pro-active approach that might all change...

However, methinks a huge social paradigm shift would first need to occur in order for such measures to take effect...

One remains an eternal optimist just the same... :-0)

Best wishes

Yes, I think you may be right. The Nutrient study in US last year was a start, but much more research is needed in the area. Anyway, I shall keep taking my cucumin!

I am also on an anti-inflammatory diet w/ some daily intermittent fasting, and I can attest to how it has improved my energy levels, and mobility...

Best wishes
