In 2002, dietary guidelines report emphasised that total dietary protein as high as 35% of total diet calories would “minimise risk for those chronic diseases”. This was not based on scientific evidence.

Dr James Muecke Australian of the Year in 2020

Dr James Muecke is the Australian of the Year in 2020 which was awarded for his work as an eye- surgeon and his work in preventing blindness.

He is trying to convince Australians to eat more meat, eggs and dairy. Australia is ranked number 2 in meat consumption, just behind United States but in front of Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil and New Zealand.

Muecke has declared that we need to “Declare war on type 2 diabetes and cut back on sugar” in order to reduce the incidence of blindness.

Information About Breast, Endometrium and Ovarian Cancers

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of papers in peer-reviewed medical journals dating back to the mid 1980s relating to the causes and preventative of breast, cervical, ovarian, endometrial and corpus uterine cancers. Unfortunately, this information is generally not read by medical practitioners, specialists or health support organisations.

For example, a 1982 paper (more than 4 decades ago) states that "the concept that hormones can cause human cancer, is most developed for the four hormone-related cancers which are breast, prostate, endometrium, and ovary".
