So, plant based eaters have Vegan superpowers that prevent colon cancer?

You ridicule my take on statistics, which you are wrong about as the 18% chance still ends up being a 1% chance OVER A LIFETIME, but you think that being Vegan means you will never experience pre-cancerous polyps or full blown colon cancer?

ANYONE can get colon cancer, Vegans still have a lifetime risk of 5% like everyone else. Even the link I quoted says they simply recommend choosing fish, poultry, or beans instead of red meat and processed meat. They DON'T say "GO VEGAN AND NO CANCERS FOREVER LOL".

That is why this is propaganda. The PCRM and it's lead Vegan doctor founder would have you believe that if you go Vegan that all of life's ails would simply be gone. You will never get those nasty sicknesses the meat eating brutes get...without acknowledging that diet is NEVER going to overrule genetic predisposition for certain ailments and conditions. It certainly might help very slightly in the long run, but the PCRM would have you believe that eating meat is equivalent to chainsmoking 4 packs of cigarettes a day, ie, you WILL get cancer if you aren't Vegan.

Trust me, I also understand having people that you love dying sucks. I've lost my entire biological family and many of my wife's family due to various reasons. All I have left is my wife's family and my biological mother. But I also realize that every single person is going to die. I also know that a lot of times that death isn't going to make sense or even be fair. You might be able to salvage a few years by restricting yourself from the pleasures of life, but statistically you still could die in a shitty way.

That is why I don't agree with the Vegan outlook or the ideal they promote that going Vegan will give you the longest lasting life with all happiness. There are many other diets that could provide the same minor edge in extending life, but Vegans typically refuse to acknowledge that. I view them as a pseudo-science cult, much like Breatharians.

Unfortunately there's nothing I can do to stop your comments from appearing once I'm on the page, but they are blanked out. I made the mistake of revealing your comment. But I can assure you I have learned from that mistake.

If you don't like the statistics then take it up with the World Health Organisation.

The other thing is, go and get a colonoscopy. Colon cancer can be symptom-less until spreads to your other organs. You likely already have it, and even if you don't I can guarantee you have the pre-cancerous polyps in there, everyone does, except for plant-based eaters.

So...by 2050 corals will bleach yearly, but they cannot recover with a bleaching event happening once every 10 years (a level we've already long ago passed in many areas). This means those bleached now have almost zero chance of survival/recovery.

As a main base food source for the oceans from gametes to polyps, as well as a habitat for over 25% of species (and probably a higher percentage of bio mass), the loss of reefs will be the death of the already struggling oceanic food web.

Anyone who has ever spoken with any veteran who has needed to avail themselves of the VA's care tells their own frustrating tales-The serious and particular nature of this guy's injuries physical, mental, spiritual...If this guy had access to Mayo, Bethesda, or John's Hopkins levels of care and expertise he may now have a different outlook perhaps....Funny??-How all the fuckers who invent the wars go straight to one of the hospitals mentioned above to get polyps removed from their asses found during a routine check-up and the soldiers get the V.A.'s network of Ghetto General Hospitals to choose from??

Terrific! I imagine that Carl would have really liked this. (Anne? Nick? Sasha--Thoughts? As much as I enjoyed this, I hope the producers keep going and add more time and detail with the amazing journey from self replicating molecules to RNA to single cell organisms to polyps to fish, and also toward the end with what we know of hominid evolution. Very Cool!

>> ^swampgirl:

I had one of these once. I didn't have surgery though. Instead, I had to shut my mouth for 3 months. I wasn't supposed to even whisper. I didn't last that long really... It's very hard to do.


So what happened? Did it take longer to heal?

"Destroyed"? Liddy laid bare the whole case. The dispute isn't about whether Fraudbama is an American citizen, it's about if he's a natural born American.

Show the "long form" birth certificate with all the other information that's in dispute: hospital, doctor, time of birth, etc. Fraudbama himself could release this document tomorrow, but he won't.

A barking idiot like Thrill-Leg Matthews proves exactly nothing; Liddy asks to see the real deal and Mathspews keeps going back to the same "Certification" that Fraudbama put out on the internet, with which you couldn't get a fking Blockbuster Video Membership card.

Anyone who calls Fraudbama "a great man" should switch on a flashlight and check for colon polyps while their head is up there.

That's not growth, it's polyp extension - the polyps routinely expand and retract out of the stony skeleton over a period of minutes.

"I had a Polyp removed from my pancreas" - !!!

I wonder if a job at McD's includes health insurance with special coverage for removal of polyps formed in your arse after eating too much of that crap!

stupidest kid's toy: MCD's cash register. Yes, lets train our kids to work at McD's starting at 4 years old. It sure makes a great paying job at 30!

You ain't kidding! I would hope a 3-part HBO miniseries is in the works to fully delve into the issue until no pube has been left unturned!

Celebrity teeth, while extremely interesting and worthy of a *great* deal of speculation and analysis, pale in comparison with body parts closer to where the food actually exits the specimen in question! Speaking of questions: when will someone have the journalistic integrity to shove an endoscope up Bowie's ass to find out how he *really* digests his meals and infuses them with his precious bodily fluids? I really wanna know and I won't sleep well until I find out, dammit.

A veritable polyp of celebrity-worship cancer, if ever I've seen one.
