You are embarked on wild goose chase which will do nothing to enhance your
long term prospects.

Your opinion has been noted for what it is ... fallacious. I will let
you in on a few things that if you weren't such a lazy ass, you'd be
able to learn for yourself. It is now generally accepted that 30-90%
of all cancer is diet related. There is a strong association of high
intake of Omega-6 fats and the occurrence of prostate cancer and the
degree of its aggressiveness. The fact is that nutrition plays a
major role in the sensitivity and likelihood of developing cancer.
The health of our DNA is nutrient dependent, as is our ability to
repair DNA damage. Cancer begins with mutated faulty genes. Free
radicals damage DNA, which when not repaired, is passed on through
replication. A shortage of antioxidants inhibit the DNA repair
process. Many cells have special cancer growth genes called
protooncogenes which if turned on from the unrepaired DNA causes
normal cells to be transformed into cancer cells that replicate
uncontrollably. What wakes up (read turns on) these genes and
precipitates cancer are viruses, chemicals, infections, radiation,
foreign bodies, and nutritional deficiencies, especially deficiency of
folate. Exposure to these causative factors result in the formation
of free radicals and chronic inflammation leading to cancer. Once
cancer cells are established they have an enormous appetite for
sugar,, iron and glutamate. A seaweed extract foo additive commonly
found in baked goods and ice cream, (CARRAGEENEN) promotes the
aggressive growth and spread of cancer by stimulating the COX-2
enzyme. I could go on and on here, but it should be obvious that I
know far more more about the biology of the disease than does Ed
Dolan, not that that in any way hinders him from running his mouth and
offering errant opinion stated as though fact.

Even if what you say is true, what good does it do me now after a lifetime
of eating dairy and red meat? Is the medical establishment now warning men
not to eat dairy and red meat? If so, I haven't seen or heard it.
In a word ... YES. *It is not what I say, but what medical researchers

and doctors now say. *As I have said all along, you haven't heard
because you haven't taken the time or made the effort required to hear
the message. *It is never too late to take some corrective measures to
improve one's health and well being.

Nope, I haven't heard or seen anything advising men not to eat dairy or red
meat. This would be headline news if it were true. In fact, it would be on a
par with the campaign against tobacco.

You haven't heard because you have chosen not to hear. The campaign
against tobacco also was repressed and got off to a slow start after
the evidence was in and the truth were known. Much of this has to do
with deep pocket lobbying interest since a lot of money is at stake.
Regardless, the information is there for those who care to educate
themselves, but you are not among those that choose to be
enlightened. No surprise there.

Ed Dolan has publicly gone on record to state that our food is safe

No, let's not! It is a waste of time and effort.

The bottom line is that patients have been callously abandoned to die,

learn that head swollen Ed Dolan will never be accused of being

The bottom line is that people become diseased and die every day from cancer
and other conditions as a result of having lived. Anyone who makes it to age
70 or so has been doing an awful lot of things right. If everyone were dying
of diseased conditions in their 30's and 40's, then I would consider looking
into what might be causing it, but that is clearly not the case.

I have never seen anyone in their 80's who was not frail. That is due to a
biological clock which is ticking away in all of us from the moment of our
birth. Diet only effects our health on the margins. The FACT is that our
food in the US is by and large safe. If it weren't, no one would make it to
age 70 or above.

Contends Dolan in vain having been proven wrong in his assertions form

Only those concerned about their health and well being concern
themselves with food safety. They are understandably cautiously
skeptical of the FDA which has proven itself untrustworthy. Obviously
you can be counted among those who put their faith in the FDA with
heads firmly implanted in the sand.

that we have lived not as well as we should have, having made choices
that limit our exposure to that which contributes to cumulative damage
of our DNA as we age, genetic mutation that triggers the onset of
disease, an indisputable fact that DOLAN refuses to acknowledge.

Granted, age inevitably takes its toll on the biological organism, but
diet plays a significant role be it good or bad depending upon the
choices we make as to what we ingest. This has become increasingly
obvious as evidence accumlates.

Diet plays a role because how and what we eat is an important element of

the age of 40. Maybe mother nature never intended that we should live to age
70 or 80?

Why not talk to your wife and get her input. She is a nurse and knows things
about life and death that you and I don't.

No arguments there. Much of the food that is healthy for you is on
the boring side and much food that is tasty food is not heathy for
you. Life just isnt't fair, I guess.

My contempt for your contempt runneth over. The facts I presented,
and you deleted, were tested and verified facts of which you are in
denial. You never have been able to discern the difference between a
fact and an opinion. Facts are not subject to dispute. Let the
lecture begin..

A fact is a pragmatic truth which can be verified and confirmed as
opposed to perception, belief or opinion which, though held to be
true, is not amenable to confirmation. A fact exists independent of
the mind and that means everyone except the most contentious of
persons (like you) would readily acknowledge and be in agreement about
it ... like temperature, for instance. Measurable, temperature is a
fact and is not subject to interpretation. Interpretation is
basically a conception based on belief and/or judgment. It's
basically your opinion. As valid as an opinion may seem to be and as
strongly as an opinion is may be held, it is little more than an
interpretation conceived to fit the facts as perceived. You often
offer your perceptions as though fact when you are merely stating
nothing more than opinion. Opinion is not a fact and that's a fact no
matter what kind of spin you attempt to put on it.

A fact is information about circumstances that are known to exist or
events that are known to have occurred. As such, facts are not
subject to debate and that's a fact ... not an opinion. You continue
to misconstrue the none too subtle distinction between what
constitutes a fact and what constitutes an opinion. You never have
and never will know the distinction between the two. It is difficult,
if not impossible, to challenge an opinion. You take solace from this
because you are less likely to be proven fallible ... a frailty of
the human condition to which you could not possibly admit. By your
own admission, you are all about opinion and is clamorously
contemptuous of logic and facts. You emphatically insists upon being
unencumbered by logic and unrestrained by facts for two specific,
though unexpressed, reasons. Logic is not your strong suit and fact,
by definition, is not subject to debate (read not arguable), which
precludes your favorite pastime ... argumentation. You are
uncomfortable when bound by the confines of logic and fact. So, what
do you do? You argue about opinions, but there's problem with that
too. Something cannot be branded "true" or "false", "right" or
"wrong" when that something is merely an expression of opinion.
Nonetheless this is precisely what you endeavor to do ... debate the
non-debatable (read opinion). What is debatable are particulars such
as values, policies, proposals or propositions. What is also
debatable is whether you will ever be able to discern the distinction
between fact and opinion and determine what is and what is not subject
to debate.

It is worthy to note that an opinion coincides with fact only in
direct relation to the degree with which it is based in fact. A
purveyor of disinformation, your opinions are most often comprised of
immaterial speculation and irrelevant supposition. There is a immense
difference between opinion and conjecture. You are not, as often
asserted, all about opinion. You are all about conjecture ... a none
too subtle distinction which exceeds your poor powers of perception.
The bottom line is that you should stick to what you know, not to what
you think. You are not entitled to an opinion until you can provide a
cogent explanation.

The bottom line is that people become diseased and die every day from
cancer
and other conditions as a result of having lived. Anyone who makes it to
age
70 or so has been doing an awful lot of things right. If everyone were
dying
of diseased conditions in their 30's and 40's, then I would consider

Yes, medical science, but that is not what is under discussion. What is
under discussion are cultural prejudices about what foods are good for you
and what foods are not good for you. There has been no progress at all about
that. It is why there are hundreds of diets out there, all disagreeing with
one another.

Can you tell me if I should be eating milk with fat in it or skim milk? Only
if you think you know something that is actually not known. Dr Oz says with
fat, Dr. Ornish says without fat. I say ****'em both!

I am going by what I heard on the Joe Scarborough show on MSNBC. Dr. Oz
flabergasted motor-mouth Mika by advocating everything that was politically
incorrect as far as she was concerned. By the way, Mika is one of the
dumbest broads on TV.

We do not know that for sure! That is what I am disagreeing about! Ornish is

follower of his and he is now dying of pancreatic cancer which may have been
caused by the Ornish diet.

never aspire to become a member.

You could be the president of such a club and I could be the chairman of the
board. Tom Sherman could be the CEO. We could call our club "The Three
Stooges".

One final hint for Dr. Jim McNamara: Write a diet book about what foods to
eat or not to eat regarding prostate cancer. You will make a fortune and can
give me 15% of what you make for cluing you in.
