The main issue of diet and nutrition is AWARENESS but sadly diet and nutrition is such a neglected subject of study that the doctors specialists and surgeons do not study for more than a single semester on nutrition and diet but go thro a course of nine to thirteen semesters of education and qualification. Is it true that the majority have an absolute trust on these doctors whereas the dietician is actually the person they meet on their way out.Take a look at the major hospitals and the place where the hospital dietician sits if at all they have one. Unless we give diet and nutrition a top priority and preventive health care takes priority over curative therapy we are bound to suffer.Not only is prevention better than cure it is safer and less costly. A recent book currently available in book stores titled "what your doctor does not know about nutrition may be killing you by Dr.Strand M.D. is worth reading No I didnt write the book

Absolutely...diet, i.e a healthy diet is the way to go.We always have a choice...to go for the fruits in our b'fast or for the quick bite of bread in any form along with so called healthy fruit juices flooding the market which prettily sits on our dining tables...(all are synthetic...directly affects the number of free radicals attacking our our body.)
Anti-oxidants which our body requires are always less for fighting the free rads that're all the growing with the stress, polltution and improper fooding habits.
Get good food supplements and watch your diet,exercise and see your body changing into a ever youthful,energetic state.
You choose....in our youth we spend all our health to make wealth and in our old age we spend all that wealth to regain our lost health!!!
