I do try to be, I make sure that I buy fruit when I do the shopping and that we have toast or cereal for breakfast. For lunch we'll have soup or a sandwich then we'll have a nice dinner. my fiancee is a chef so he knows how to make healthy meals for us.

hi jenely yes that is sad. Those things do happen and we never really know why. But still do not let that deter you 'from being really health conscious and taking care to get proper nutrition every day.Exercise every day, and keep'a positive attitude at all times. But usually with cancer of the liver, there are some signs of unhealthy living maybe not apparent to anyone but a doctor. anyway if we heed the information we have now on what will be good for us to eat 'we will eat a lot more veggies and fruit, be sure to eat only lean meats, use whole grains and low fat dairy products to make ourselves healthy. cheers. take care.I am very health conscious as I have to be, I am a diabetic.

Yes I'm quite health conscious eating plenty of veggies and fruits. However it doesn't always mean you won't end up with cancer. I had a friend years ago who exercised everyday and only ate good food and she still ended up with cancer. I think it has to do with the family genes. You can do all the right things but if its the family I don't think you can prevent yourself from getting it.
