Reply to comment by DigitalSteven1 in Study: Shifting to Plant-Based Diet Important for Colorectal Cancer Prevention by BoundariesAreFun

Not OP, but I read Blue Zones which had to do with centireans and longevity. There were some examples but keep in mind there are so many other reasons too like exercise and exceptions to the rules.

If you look at countries that have the best health there is no indicators that they are on plant based diets.

Also I read an interesting observation that all the blue zones have universal Healthcare that focus on preventative care. While diet may be important, so is making sure everyone gets regular doctor visits.
