You can help by eating soy foods and Flax Seed ground onto your cereal. Tofu is your best food for soy in recipes instead of animal products like meats. Eat lots of fresh fruits and raw vegetables and take a food based vitamin and mineral like Source of Life vitamins along with the herbs, Black Cohosh & Chaste Berry. Health food stores have all kinds of brands to help you choose and Progesterone cream can also help . Also don't smoke or drink alcohol.

I just became vegetarian recently, for health reasons.  I am in good health anyway, but I learned that vegetarians are 50% less likely to die of cancer than meat-eaters.  And that's just scratching the surface.  Vegetarians greatly reduce their risk of getting all sorts of diseases that meat-eaters commonly get such as heart disease, or having a stroke and it even lowers your blood pressure. A vegetarian diet makes your body feel better!

It depends.  There are alot of antioxidants out there.  Some are good for you, such as Vitamin C.  Your body needs antioxidants to prevent free radicals from doing harm to the body.\n\n\nHow some antioxidants can harm health\n\nSome of the plant based reducing acids, most notably oxalic and phytic, bind to needed dietary minerals, rendering them unabsorbable in the gastrointestinal tract. Some of the tannins also have this negative characteristic. Calcium and iron deficiencies are not uncommon in mideastern diets where there is high consumption of phytic acid present in beans and unleavened whole grain bread. Such antinutrients can sometimes result in deceptively high Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) ratings given to various "healthy" beverages and foods, particularly:\n\ncocoa/chocolate, spinach, and berries - oxalic acid \nwhole grains - phytic acid \ntea - tannins \nOther extremely powerful nonpolar antioxidants such as eugenol also happen to have toxicity limits that can easily be exceeded with the misuse of essential oils.\n\nHigh levels of antioxidants can be powerful agents against tumours, but in some scenarios can interfere with the effects of other cancer treatments.\n\nRecent laboratory studies suggest that at levels much higher than occur through normal diets, antioxidant vitamins such as A, E and C can have pro-oxidant effects, increasing the formation of free radicals. Natural antioxidants are always ingested together with a wide variety of flavonoids and other phytochemicals are also likely to play a part. Many supplement manufacturers supply products containing antioxidants in combination with these other natural chemicals. Another significant factor is that the mechanisms by which different antioxidants regenerate each other require balanced levels to work optimally. Newer liquid nutritional supplements using plant ionic compounds are believed to be more readily absorbed in the human body.

Lots of good, little harm.  It acts as an antioxidant and has been shown beneficial to the cardiovascular system, and also may help with diabetes and breast cancer.  Note:  By little harm, I mean that none of my sources show any long-term harm.  Only short-term side effects such as stomach upset and headache.

Vegetarianism is very unhealthy.  Best to stay away from it.  Don't get me wrong, it's (slightly) better than an all Twinkee/Donut/Ice Cream diet.  But, most vegetarians are sick (and they look it).\n\nThe best diet is to get most of your calories from meat and most of your bulk from fresh fruits and vegetable.  Drink only water.  No processed foods, junk food, sugar, flour, vegetable oil etc.  Eat only whole grains and in strict moderation.

Flax is beneficial for two reasons. First of all, it provides fiber which helps keep your bowels and digestive tract clear and helps move toxins out sooner, therefore they're less likely to be absorbed into nearby organs (like your prostate). \n\nSecondly, flax oil is a good anti-oxidant. Anti-oxidants help to fight free radicals, which is what generally causes cancer. Your body can't get flax oil from whole seeds because the shell is too thick to digest. So if it's ground down into meal, you will be able to absorb the oil from it.\n\nHowever, flax meal or oil is probably not going to cure your cancer. You should definitely see a specialist. Also, there are lots of websites online with good information; check for a cancer clinic or the Mayo clinic (don't just trust any "cure" that you read about on any old website).

A doctor referred nutritionist told me that there is something in the soy milk helps stabilizes the female hormones to stop hot flashes, keeps hair from falling out and slows wrinkling of skin. Cow's milk causes excessive mucus and congestion and many times has excess antibiotics and hormones that can cause bad reactions with in your system. Some adults and children are allergic to cow's milk or have lactose intolerance. Few people are allergic to Soy products.

Peanut butter is healthy for you. It is a protein which puts it in the meat group in the food pyramid. But as with anything too much of something is not good for you.

Good vitamins-yes. \nEven if you ate a healthy diet\nYou would have to eat 15 peaches today to get the vitamins you got before by eating just one peach. Because of what we have done to our food. No-where in the world is corn not contaminated by something due to the seeds we get by already diseased plants. It won't kill you but it is not good for you.\nSad but true. There are many causes to this which is a whole story in itself.\nTake them and take a good one--too many out there are worthless.
