A lot of truth in that article, Ed. Thanks for posting.

Yes interesting reading. Quality has always been top on my food agenda.
I consume loads of calories, but..
Olive oil instead of lard, fresh fruit instead of tinned. Potatoes in their skins with sourcream rather than fries. etc
I still eat the occasional bit of junk, but prefer to make my own pizzas. Biggest sin is still all the chocolate. (Also helps that I like red wine more than white wine or beer or spirits)

Still somethings working as I now weigh in at 168 (I was 183 two years back on the day I had surgery)

I liked This quote from the study: "There are good foods and bad foods, and the advice should be to eat the good foods more and the bad foods less," he said. "The notion that it's ok to eat everything in moderation is just an excuse to eat whatever you want."   I guess my frozen pizzas will just have to stay in the freezer for emergencies only.

Thanks for the link Ed.  By the way, there is another diet study about PCa over on the New PC Infolink site you might find interesting.
