Have a question about this video? Leave it in the comment section at ‪http://nutritionfacts.org/videos/vegetarians-versus-healthy-omnivores/ and I'll try to answer it! I've covered findings from the EPIC studies before in Meat & Multiple Myeloma (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/meat-multiple-myeloma/), Bowel Movement Frequency (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/bowel-movement-frequency/), Thousands of Vegans Studied (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/thousands-of-vegans-studied/), EPIC Study (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/epic-study/) and Low Meat of No Meat? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/low-meat-or-no-meat/). Tomorrow I'll cover the findings from this paper in more depth and I have a few more videos in the pipeline on it, so stay tuned! And the same diet that may prevent cancer may help treat it too, see Cancer Reversal Through Diet? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/cancer-reversal-through-diet/). For more on plant-based nutrition, see the 101 videos I have on plant-based diets (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/plant-based-diets/), and hundreds of other videos on more than a thousand subjects (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/). PS: the reference in this video to teasing out the cancer and coffee connection is dealt with in Coffee and Cancer (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/coffee-and-cancer/).
