    Hi Emily,

    I definitely will check it out after I finish posting. I'm not as faithful as you about my diet, but everyone who knows me thinks I'm extreme. In fact, I even went to a nutritionist a couple of weeks ago and showed her Dr. Quillan's book. She said that the sugar theory has never been proven. Anyway, I let it go in one ear and out the other. She also told me that I didn't eat enough protein. After talking to me for an hour, she suggested I might benefit from taking Xanax (sp) since I seemed a little hyper!!! Ha~!

    Keep the info coming!

    Stay well,

    Kay

    Thanks Emily--I will certainly check it out.
    Hey Kay--kanga was a sugar junkie so I guess my cancer may have been "fed"--lol
    Then again I was also a "milk" junkie and the latest reports here in oz are telling us a litre of milk a day helps keep cancer at bay.
    Who they kiddin???--I drank over a lire a day for 40 years and still have the demon!
    Then again I smoke too--tsk!, tsk!
    Don't think they have proven yet if smoking thru one's arse causes cancer--lol(skusey me french!)
    huggs guys, kanga n Jen

    Kay -

    Xanax is baaaaaad joo-joo! Easy to form a habit (my ex was addicted). Ugh. Stay away from that stuff. Spend that extra energy at the gym or in the garden or pushing a lawn mower, or ironing your husband's shirts, or... OK, I was kidding about those last two (I'm really not a sexist)

    - SpongeBob (who irons his OWN shirts and has for as long as he can remember - only I can get the creases just right)
