Cancer is only "a thing" because long, long ago, deviant malcontent proto "progressives" decided that, unlike any other organism on Earth, including human beings in their normative social configuration, they were going to dispense with nature's dictation as to what they should eat and how they should live, and would instead act according to their own conscious thoughts. This resulted in such half-assed and supremely destructive practices as making grains a staple of the human diet because they can be stored for years. You see, this isn't so much of a matter of "intellect" at work as it is a matter of presumption and stupidity. While it was true that you could store grains forever, the reason for that was that there was hardly anything that could use them for sustenance and remain healthy, and that, of course, included humans!!! The unconscious organisms, heeding the innate inclinations which nature or God had bestowed upon them, did not subvert such key safeguards, but (subhu)man did!! Dr. Weston Price gave the results of his findings on the introduction of grain and sugar into the diets of peoples who had never before consumed such substances in the early 1900s, and it was just as one would expect based on the results of forensic archaeology, which show that countless chronic diseases and deformities can be traced to the Neolithic Agricultural Revolution. This includes things such as our jaws no longer having the space to accommodate wisdom teeth, something that ignorant, stupid or deceitful "scientists" attribute to "evolution". The features of the very generation which came after the introduction of white flour and sugar into the diets of those peoples mentioned above were born with narrowed features, a sign of connective tissue disorder from the antinutrients in such foods and also the absence of real food to counter the effects thereof. That's right, it wasn't a matter of natural selection and evolution; the VERY OFFSPRING OF THOSE WHO FIRST CONSUMED GRAINS AND SUGAR (and I believe grains are obviously the more significant factor) WERE BORN WITH SUCH DEFORMITIES AS ARE FOUND IN THE FOSSIL RECORD ASSOCIATED WITH THE BEGINNING OF THE AGRICULTURAL REVOLUTION!!!

Cancer become "a thing" until human civilization, which was brought about by the development of agriculture, which is the idiocy I described above. It was barely anything at all until another relatively recent stage in "progress", the Industrial Revolution, which resulted in such innovations as the high rates of childhood cancer with which we are now blessed as a species.

Another factor which is affected by diet, and is thrown off balance by the consumption of things that are not intended to be consumed by a given organism, is prenatal hormone release, which I am convinced is the primary causative factor in homosexuality. This has resulted in countless millions who are forever discontented because they are attracted not to others who are of their own homosexual inclination, but to heterosexual members of the same gender. That's right; homosexuals are among the greatest unrecognized victims of the very "progressive" agenda that so many unfortunately have been convinced that they should support, not that the things they wish to progress away from are necessarily reflective of normative human existence in the first place, and for the most part, they are not. They simply represent an earlier stage in the perverse pagan agenda of "progress". Soy is a major factor contributing to disruption of the normative hormone balance in the womb, and anyone accustomed to reading the ingredients lists for packaged foods will understand that it really requires that one eliminate most of the standard American diet from his or her consumption in order to avoid consuming significant amounts of soy. For instance, the main ingredient in that mayonnaise which a certain reviewer had slathered all over that McWhopper he ate on camera a while back isn't egg yolks, but soybean oil!!!
