A new screening method for colorectal cancer may be on the horizon. A clinical study showed 83% accuracy for a blood test intended to detect early colorectal cancer.
You sound like you’re espousing the same kind of woo as Steve Jobs did.
“Oh, even though I have the super treatable form of pancreatic cancer and not the super deadly kind, I’m sure eating fruits and nuts and avoiding red meat is just as good as chemo and radiation therapy and OH NO MY APPLE HAS NOW FALLEN OFF THE TREE!”
I don’t have tumors or cancers because I medically check myself once in a while, but I still avoid eating junk food or overly processed food except seldom to avoid increasing my own risk of contracting ailments or maladies.
When there is party like a barbecue, I am very voracious on the meat because I eat it sparingly (but I eat the type of meat you purchase almost 0 KM away from your own trusted family-led butcher shop)
Cancer can appear at any time, in anyone, no matter how healthy you are. In fact your body is constantly generating the precursors to cancer due to unavoidable genetic damage (age, sunlight, cosmic radiation, pure random chance during cell division), but has processes to eliminate them before they spread. Cancer is when these processes fail and the damaged cell is allowed to reproduce. Being healthy only reduces the number of dice you’re rolling.
Colorectal cancer is especially insidious as the colon is constantly shedding cells (the more often cells split, the higher the cancer risk), and there often aren’t any symptoms until it’s too late. Everyone should get checked out periodically.
Eating healthily contributes to overall well-being and can reduce the risk of many diseases, including some cancers. However, it’s not a foolproof protection. Genetic factors and environmental exposures also play significant roles in cancer risk. It seemed from your initial statement as if you believed a healthy diet could make one immune to cancer, leading to the reactions you received.

Congrats! This is the dumbest thing I’ve read today!
So you mean that by not eating junk food in colossal quantities, instead taking seldom a morser\nibble, I am harming myself more?
Ah yes, cancer, that thing that is only caused by food, and definitely not caused by genetic or environmental factors!
It surely helps if one avoids chunking down junk food.
Of course pollution doesn’t help.
That is why it is better to live on the outskirts and go into the big city only for work and leisure.

It’s called common sense.

What.
Please step out of the vehicle, I’m suspecting you’re under the influence.
