You are what you eat?

I have never been one to believe in special diets,fads and super foods but the time has come (like a drowning man clutching at straws)to try to take some ownership and self help with this disease. So far my treatments and proposed treatments are having a more damaging effect both physically and mentally than is being caused by the cancer at this stage of its growth. It requires faith and trust that the doctors know what they are doing and so the only thing left for me is my eating and lifestyle habits.
Having just read a book on prostate cancer by Professor Plant in which she advocates dumping dairy I have embarked on a new diet. Plant's theory goes that animals milk is only used while animals are very young and not thereafter. Humans are the only species that continue to drink milk (not even our own) throughout our lives. Milk contains hormones and breast and prostate cancer are hormone sensitive so although there is no proof that cutting out milk products is beneficial a lot of people think it may help so why not?
The other effect should be weight loss. I have been over 17 stone recently and although 6'2" one chart I looked at had me down as obese. Enough of that - so I am now on the PLANT diet. This means no milk butter cheese processed food or empty calories. Out are cakes,biscuits,red meat,crisps (surely not cheese and onion as well - yes I am afraid so!).Less booze, no tea or coffee (except green tea which I have got used to surprisingly quickly. In are extra virgin (wasted on me) olive oil,fruit,salad,most carbs,more fruit and more salad + nuts,beans,pulses,soya,tofu and all that weird flower power stuff.
Will this last?- well it is going OK so far and I have lost a few pounds as a bonus, which is just as well as I had been struggling to get into my works trousers. I had been trying to blame this on the hormone therapy but Sue reckons hiding those crisps has been the reason.
