A change in Diet - No more Red Meat


First of all, no more red meat. See here:

Eating Lots of Red Meat Linked to Colon Cancer

and

Diet Tied to Colon Cancer's Return

Although after surgery I could not eat raw vegetables and fruit for a few weeks, I went overboard with the cooked varieties. For sources of protein, I added more soy, and fish to my menu.

To help facilitate my new diet. I went to an Asian grocery store. It is generally known that people who follow a Western diet have a higher incidence of Colon Cancer, therefore, I wanted to see what was available to adapt an Eastern diet.
