the fact is cancer just happens regardless, and for many different and unrelated reasons. Nothing more to it than that, and not a lot one can do about it either. I think that's easier to understand when someone in your immediate family has died from cancer.


I am a cancer survivor....I don't believe that cancer (or much of anything else) "just happens regardless".....
Yes, I agree that there are many factors that contribute - not just eating habits. Absolutely right...I can almost guarantee that my own cancer was caused more from psychological/emotional stress, than it was from the food I was eating!!
However - I think that if people aren't willing to address & work on the factors that can lead to cancer - whether it's their eating habits, smoking, stress, or lack of exercise - then most of the battle is already lost. It's kind of like saying "oh, I'll just do/eat/react whatever or however I want, it doesn't matter."
It all matters.
