While I regularly rail against lots of alternative medicine, I'm a big fan of good nutrition, exercise, yoga, pilates, meditation and friendships to counter the effects of our treatments.
Here is a link to a review of a movie Forks over Knives by Roger Ebert. The movie is a full out polemic on eating vegetables as a way to health and the regular diet as a path to ruin. My wife caregiver would love it and I've got to find out about renting it.
What's interesting is that at the end, Mr Ebert who is a tube feeder for life like myself has decided to move off of his canned nutrient diet and go to a liquid diet of fruit and vegetables. I was going to post this in the alternative feeding forum due to that, but the message of this movie makes this adjunctive therapy forum a better fit. Plus for once I wanted to post something positive here instead of feeling like the grinch stealing the wishes of a miracle cure away from posters.
