And I wouldn't worry about the ">20% risk over 5 years"... that's probably true for someone who hasn't made any changes or takes the typical treatment route, which is ineffective. Be consistent, get that reassessed in a year, and you'll show 'em!

one woman at work told me I was the only healthy looking Vegan she knew. Another said she wanted me to teach her about my diet (I emailed her a link to the site and am going to lend her one of the McD cookbooks as she doesn't have the internet at home) and another said she always feels jealous when she sees my bowl of bulgur sitting soaking up hot water in the kitchen at work in preparation for lunch.


keep up the magnificent work Glenn - pats on the back from across the seas

Katherine :D

I recently (February) spent a week with some relatives from Mississippi in a vacation rental house for a skiing trip. My 77 year old very very religious Aunt came along. I spoke to her Yesterday, she asked, "Are you still eating that garbage?"

I was too stunned to give her the reply I should have said, "You mean eating fruits and vegetables as God made them?"

Garbage? Really? Even most people who don't like spinach or broccoli will at least grudgingly admit it is healthy.

This problem isn't unique to nurses. My dietician who is a registered doctor I believe told me can I get you to reduce your oats and get you to have some protein.. i.e. eggs. Would you do that. I felt so leaving her office.
