Hi Aashul1008,

My money and actually my life is on the whole food plant based diet.

My search for the best anti cancer diet has now l led me to the whole food plant based diet. Please read "The China Study" by T Colin Campbell PhD, "Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease" by Dr Caldwell Esselstyn, and "How Not to Die" by Dr Michael Greger. All give science based evidence that meat, chicken, fish, eggs, and dairy are bad for our health and are cancer promoting. Also please read "Radical Remission" by Kelly Turner, PhD. She interviewed 1000 people whose cancer went into remission and lists the nine things they all did. As for food, all gave up meat, sweets, wheat, and dairy. Please watch the above authors on you tube. I believe all these books are available at the library.

After one year on the whole food plant based diet my total cholesterol is 130 and my LDL is 64. Thankfully I am still in remission from Mantle Cell Lymphoma that I was diagnosed in July 2015. In my case, I believe I needed the chemo and stem cell transplant to kill the cancer and I need the whole food plant based diet to keep it from coming back. Good luck.

Peace and Good Health!

I'm a bit reluctant to give dietary advice as everyone is different. Some are better off without meat and others tolerate it well and it depends on your build too, so that has to be a personal choice.

I am a small build slim woman and I don't eat much meat myself but I have given up refined sugar and any pre-packaged foods and white starches like white rice/white bread.. I eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. So I would say my diet is highly plant based and low in carbs/ low in red meat if any.

Exercise is crucial in staying as healthy as possible ( see my posts from this week).
