15. I am not a persistent troll

but a persistent advocate for Truth. By "dropping from the sky," I was not being literal. Radiation is indeed a "trigger for cancer." And yet it's also a TREATMENT for it?!

Of course there are environmental toxins! When I advocate for living a clean lifestyle, I am including everything which prevents that from occurring. No one with a heart tells a lung cancer patient who smoked for 40 years that he had in coming to him, but not too many are surprised when he gets lung cancer. We need to extend that knowledge of carcinogens to include foods we eat and other habits in which we indulge (including a persistent negative attitude). Most of the "shit" in food is due to bad choices made by consumers. When you eat prepared foods, you automatically will have to contend with chemicals because they are not fresh. Waiting around for companies to get it together is not the answer, IMO. We can achieve optimal health NOW, regardless of "them."
