Dr. Mercola Promotes Raw Diet & Supplements To Fight Cancer

Dr. Joseph Mercola has been a proponent of eating a predominantly raw diet for decades. I am not a necessarily a supporter, nor am I a detractor. His opinions on everything from the danger of using artificial sweeteners to cell phones can be over the top. So are his claims cancer can be prevented and cured through diet and supplementation. Even so, books and newsletter are definitely worth a look. Dr. Mercola's consumer protectionist activism is admirable—think of him as the “Ralph Nader of Nutrition and public health.” I agree with Dr. Mercola's premise that eating raw, unprocessed vegetables should be the cornerstone of everyone's diet—I'm just not convinced that over 80% of that diet needs to be raw vegetables, nuts, seeds and eggs.

Check out Dr. Mercola's news and views by going to Mercola.com.
Feel good, keep smiling and remember to eat lots of uncooked fruits and vegetables!
