Thank you for your post.
I am glad your mother has a good qol.
I was sorry to hear of the suggestion of high numbers of cases in Crete. I would be positive to know of corners that had managed to avoid the increase that are being seen in numbers.
The articles do refer to the pre 1960 diet, and I guess was based on then (1960) statistics.
The introduction in dietary changes, vegetable oils, vegetable oils in processed foods etc may have changed the comparative cancer ratio bringin them more in line with other western countries since then.
It is not something I have specifically looked at.
Also sadly there are always going to be those for whom diet may offer better qol but have some sort of predisposition, exposure to other environmental factors etc.
Thank you agin for your post.
I hope your mother continues to enjoy a good qol. grape vines, Tavernas feta, juicy fresh peaches, local honey, feta basil and tomatoes come to mind but that was some years ago.
