Man continues to dig his grave with his knife and fork.

    Man continues to dig his grave with his knife and fork, written by Lady Eve Balflour in the early part of the twentieth century. Illness can be attributed to what one eats. When you study what people eat it becomes apparent that there is an obvious link to a lot of cancers and diseases. When the Communist regimes fell across Eastern Europe and the famous Western fast food outlets opened up, the profile of the cancers that were appearing changed to the same as if one was reading statistics from any American City.
    There is a dear price to be paid for the convenience of our hectic lifestyles. You or I wouldn't eat an apple we found lying on the footpath yet we trust someone else to grow prepare and cook what we eat. These people are in business and the mighty Dollar or not so mighty Euro is the incentive. No one stops to think why our hospitals are getting bigger and the numbers within them grow by the day. Is this the progress of a sophisticated race?

    Well that's obvious, of course what you eat has various effects. Everything has pros and cons, therefore eat a balanced diet and decrease the probability of negative effects. That's all ya can do.

    This is the only way to feed the rapidly increasing population of the world. I'm not about to start farming my small back yard any time soon.:rolleyes:

    It is actually. People living for longer, human body encountering problems it has never faced before due to increased life expectancy leads to more people in hospital getting things fixed.

    So how do you explain the new cancers and the young fit people dropping dead with heart failure. Athletes like the Tryone Footballer a couple of years ago. The Hosbitals are not just full of old sick people. My neighbour is 32 and has three weeks to live, explain that properly.

    Probabilities and statistics. Out of every population a certain amount of each age group will get certain illnesses.
    What "new cancers"? These most likely have always occurred but just went undocumented/unrecognised.
    Young fit people dropping dead with heart failure - also most likely has always happened but with the increased media attention it gets it just seems it's happening a lot more.

    I agree with the poster above, these cancers aren't 'new' it's just people understand medicine more. Those heart problems were probably always there but not documented
