I’m passionate about eating a healthy diet because I know just how much it matters. However, I get the sense that very few people want to be told to eat more fruits and vegetables. It’s disheartening given that we have a significant body of research to support the benefit of choosing certain foods to eat to prevent or at least least reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, strokes, and more.
If you have ever doubted the value of eating the right kind of food, I encourage you to watch the video I have to share from TED. TED is a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. You can find their amazing award-winning TEDTalks videos on the site: www.ted.com.
NOTE: This is a fairly long video (about 20 minutes). Be sure to watch until the end. You won’t regret it!
Does the research suggest we can prevent all cancer with a healthy diet? No, absolutely not. But it may greatly enhance the odds of staying healthy and reduce the number of people who are diagnosed with active cancer each year. That’s something worth taking to heart!
I’ve watched this amazing video more than once. I hope you will too. It gives me hope! I’m looking forward to when we can more accurately predict precisely which foods may provide the greatest benefits for better health. That day is not far off.
