Here’s a study that’s worth taking a look at. Of course the headline itself is a little misleading. The scientists break it down thoroughly in their study findings. They studied people with healthy, plant-based diets and did discover the incidence of lung cancer was higher.
However, what they also discovered is that the reason wasn't the fruits and vegetables themselves, but rather the pesticides and remaining residue that people consumed on the plant matter.
Does that mean one shouldn't eat plants? Of course not! It means that we need to find better ways to remove pesticides from them before ingestion (because we all know that the industry will not stop using pesticides; that is a losing battle!)
