‘THERE’S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREVENTION AND CURE’

Dr Christian Jessen says: “A healthy diet with plenty of vegetables and fruit, cutting down on red meat and only very occasionally having processed or smoked meat, plus plenty of exercise and positive thinking can certainly help to prevent cancer. But that’s very different from being able to cure it. If I were diagnosed I would certainly go down the route of conventional medicine but I would also make sure I was as strong as possible to cope with medical treatment, and that would include having a healthy diet. We should never underestimate the body’s own immune system.”
