One of the FAQ I get: what is my current diet?

90% vegetables, fruits and nuts, both cooked and raw. The rest is a mixed bag of fish, also both cooked and raw, (not seafood, but maybe a prawn here and there) and complex proteins that I simply cannot resist picking at when presented at my table: roast duck, pigeon, chicken feet, duck tongue, cheese, eggs. Yes, I'm prime candidate for avian flu. I mourned the scrumptious loss of roast geese when live flocks were 'ingested' by both engines of the Airbus A320 before being minced then marinaded in the Hudson River.

Along with supplements of vitamin E and flax seed oil (both 1000 mg soft gels), I follow a nutritional juice regimen (吳永志: 不一樣的自然養生法), the brainchild of renowned doctor in natural medicine and fellow lung cancer survivor, Dr. Tom Wu, that has me drinking a refreshing glass of raw mixed fruits and veggie juices (refined pulp, pit & all) three times a day. I also try to eat at least one completely raw, organic meal and drink at least 2 litres of water every day. (Avoid distilled water since this is acidic.)

I favour fresh salad dressings with a kick, mustard or vinaigrette. Here's a simple favourite with fresh garlic. Where I have left out measurements, use common sense and your mood.

Have nutritional, healthy lifestyle tips to share? What vitamins and supplements have you found useful?

PS. I'm also trying my utmost to eliminate excess sugar from my diet, which is wise for anyone with cancer, but especially since tumours are now found in the pancreas in my case. I have also begun one of the natural alternatives to cancer treatment, Essiac, a herbal supplement from Canada, as well as trying out the combination of cottage cheese and flax seed oil as recommended by the Budwig protocol.
