Great short/fast article in the November 2010 edition of Health.com, and nicely presented, which I thought I's post a link for in hopes it helps people looking here on Lumigate for good information about foods. This is about foods that prevent cancer ... broccholi, berries, garlic, walnuts, tomatoes, beans and a few pointers on what to reduce as well.
You are what your grandmother & mother ate and experienced. Now you either feed your illness or feed your wellness with every thing you put in your mouth.

Mardy's Note: 12/8/11: The distributor who provided this content on Lumigrate at my encouragement and with my support in the past has messaged through Lumigrate to request the content he provided be removed as he doesn't wish to participate in this 'effort' anymore. The forums at Lumigrate are a social media format, similar to facebook. That would be like contacting facebook and saying "take everything I ever commented on or posted off". Many conversations and exchanges of other providers are woven in 'threads' and that would be disrespectful to the other forum participants who gave their time and energy to participate in the 'social' media of Lumigrate's forums. However, I have changed the UserName to be Juice Plus 007, removed the photo, and am posting this in the signature and removing the contact information that is set up in the signature in order to make it clear this contributor no longer wants to be 'connected' with the posts. Additionally, as time permits, I will work to replace the content with similar but that will entail selecting another person distributing for Juice Plus. I wanted JP represented on Lumigrate because it is a well-known company based on the concept of supplementing fruits and vegetables. Also because JP reaches many people due to it's vast number of distributors; there are 10 in Grand Junction, population 50k or so. In addition to removing the information in the signature for contact, I have changed the username and email address associated with it to route to me if anyone were to send a "private message" to JP007. My first step will be to edit out any internal contact information/links to the requestor. I guess you call this an "imposter"? Grins! I hope this is a clear statement for the users of Lumigrate to view related YOUR forum area and how I manage it. After all, it is YOUR health education (and mine) I'm advocating for but Lumigrate, at the end of the day, is my website. I care a great deal about the users of Lumigrate feeling they are being treated well and providing a forum area which is a FUN place to come get valid, progressive information in a streamlined way when searching for health information our audience of consumers is seeking.

Hi Tom -- Thanks for posting that article in Health.com, it's a really nice overview with appealing pictures and appears to me to be right on -- I believe Dr Spurlock just told me when we met in person a couple of weeks ago the same thing about broccholi and I was going to ask him to write it up but now we have it so I can ask him to spend his time on something else! He discussed why eating a lot of broccholi could prevent needing to take a supplement with something in it that was news to me, and I believe he was talking about this same thing, but again, I can check on that. I recorded the conversation but haven't had time to review it for all the details.
When you said 'You are what your grandmother and mother ate and experienced' are you referring to epigenetics? Do you have any resources about that? I know I saw something in Time about it in the last year which was FASCINATING ... the affect of a surplus of food for one year on a group of people and how that was seen not in the next generation but the one after that, I believe. I heard from someone I was discussing it with that they saw a really good show on PBS. If you have a chance, posting some links about that would be helpful to our readers.
Thanks so much for all the good information you are setting us up with here at Lumigrate.com. There is no way I can do it all, but by finding and working closely with people who are more knowledgeable than I am in each area, I can be a good facilitator I hope. ~~ Mardy
