Chose: any physician you like  usually its one who answers your questions

Question 2

please tell me all data on whether to vaccinate or not to vaccinate?

Accepted Answer

Discuss with MD: There is more nonsense on this topic than almost anything else in medicine.  A widely quoted "study" linking autism and vaccinate was proven fraudulent and was a payoff to a doc who lost his license for false research.

Question 3

is there data adding pounds of green plants 2 a persons diet will dramatically increase their health?

Accepted Answer

No: A balanced nutritional eating plan is essential to good health.Adding pounds of greens to an ?Otherwise unhealthy eating plan won't counteract the negatives of chronic poor nutrition.I do think fresh vegetables and fruits are necessary and excellent nutritionally. Exercise is also an essential component of health. Decreasing stress also helps;being aware of environmental toxicity is also critical.
