The health risks associated with a meat-based diet represent the main reason I decided to switch to a WFPB diet. At 74, I need all the help I can get. And I watched my mom slowly die over a 5-year period of misdiagnosed colon cancer. She loved her evening ice cream dessert. Not saying that was the main reason for getting cancer (she had been under a lot of stress for a long tie), but it sure didn't help. Keep spreading the word, Pala.
