One thing about healthy eating I've noticed over the years- some of the healthiest people I know have died from cancers. A naturopath I knew was the #1 healthiest person I knew. His diet was vegan and was clean and perfect, and he got plenty of exercise etc. Died in his late 40's a few weeks after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Perhaps his diet was too clean. Perhaps when his body was exposed to some negative heath factor in the environment, it couldnt deal with it because it normally only received good, healthy inputs. Whereas someone with a more average or marginal lifestyle and eating habits could handle that same negative factor without dying cuz their body is already used to dealing with a degree of garbage in the system.
It's like at work on these sweltering days, I normally only drink water but everyday I bring a cooler full of iced Gatorade for the men. Gatorade tastes awesome but I virtually never drink it because I'm under the impression it is garbage food, it seems like liquid potato chips. But when it is extra mad-hot out, I'll have one because 1) the electrolytes are a good thing, and drinking only water can be inadequate, and 2) a little garbage food, a few garbage food additives, some garbage food coloring, may be a good thing to keep one's system with the resiliency it needs to deal with negative environmental health inputs. As opposed to the naturopath mentioned above who ever only ingested pure and healthy food and drinks.
