Guest guest Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Hi all, Last night I was sooooooo excited to see a commercial on a major TV channel during prime time that actually stated that a vegan diet prevented cancer and that children should be fed more vegetarian meals!!! It was done by cancerproject.org. I think I know who I will be donating some money to soon! They showed pics of yummy looking vegetarian meals that were bright and colorful. It was awesome! It is a start!!! Good news on TV for once! Blessings!

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Audrey, A few years ago someone from the Cancer Society called me for a donation and I replied that I would donate for ounces of prevention, but not pounds of cure. After hanging up I wondered if there's anyone like that and found cancerproject.org after a short websearch. They are not only doing the right research and publicizing it, but promoting the right (affordable, effect, attainable) diet for prevention. I've passed on their literature to friends and neighbors who have had cancer. They have all since succumbed, none of them changed their diets as far as I know. It's going to take a major publicity campaign to get things moving, but I'm glad to hear that it's starting.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Cool!! That's actually a project of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM.org). I hadn't seen any TV ads yet, though they have been trying to educate people, through the Cancer Project, on the preventive effects of proper (improved) diet. Dr. Barnard, the founder and president, is supportive of raw. When I asked him about his thoughts on raw food, he basically said (paraphrased) " well, before our ancestors discovered fire, they were eating raw foods. " He also said about the raw diet " go for it! " As far as I know, PCRM has not addressed raw foods as a diet or lifestyle, but perhaps in time!
