Kepow! Take that….. Historically we’ve had to rely on fictional characters such as Popeye, Doc Broc and (maybe) the Jolly Green Giant to help us believe that the path to increased physical endurance might have more to do with the vegetable patch than a steak. Increasingly though, real life athletes are starting to wake up to the fact endless bowels of pasta, protein powders or chicken may not be helping them get the results that they are after.

The World Cancer Research Fund (UK) is a fantastic charity. They are really focused on educating people to PREVENT cancer through lifestyle rather than simply helping treat symptoms. I thoroughly applaud their attitude and approach.
This morning they published one of their most startling research findings to date: that more than 80,000 cancer cases per year in the UK could be prevented.
They rightly point out that most people truly believe that cancer just happens to them and it is fate as to whether they get it or not. What a shocking thing to think. I personally believe that almost all cancers are preventable. Otto Warburg won the Nobel Prize for discovering that cancer cells cannot live in an alkaline environment and Dr Young proves this theory over and over again.

A study published in the British Journal of Psychiatry has revealed that people who ate mainly alkalising foods such as vegetables, low sugar fruits and oily fish were less likely to get depression 6 years later, compared to those who ate highly acid-forming foods such as meat and bread.
The researchers at University College London examined the link between the diet and depression by studying data from 3,500 civil servants who were ‘middle aged’ and discovered those who ate lots of vegetables, low-sugar fruit and fish had a 26 per cent lower risk of future depression. The combination of these highly alkalising foods (including omega-3, too) decreased the risk of depression.

Not having enough good fat in your diet is actually more dangerous than having too much bad fat. That’s right - omega 3 deficiency is more dangerous than trans-fat consumption!
This is the outcome of a recent study conducted by Harvard University and the Centre for Disease Control and Management in the USA. Their findings revealed that omega-3 deficiency is, unbelievably, the sixth biggest killer of Americans and more deadly than excess trans fat intake.
