This post came in as a comment on the Barry Groves RIP thread last night. I will be commenting later but in the meantime I am interested in your comments and opinions. Eddie
Although a death is a saddening experience and my sympathies are with his family.
One must remember Mr Groves armed with a dodgy doctorate dispersed equally dodgy dietary and life style tips.
Such as the gem as implying smoking fine as there is some sort of conspiracy by the medical professional to deprive the public of smoking. Quoting the mental rants of Dr. Kitty Little who claimed diesel fumes where to blame for the increases in lung cancer amongst the like of lorry drivers. Not there smoking habits or Barry Groves style breakfasts in road side cafés.
By his own admission he suffered from bowel cancer and underwent surgery and conventional treatment for, only later to slag off.
He certainty did not live half a century in robust health as some have suggested.
He books and website in my opinion are full of advice that should be taken with a pinch of salt or in Barrys case a tablespoon of the stuff.
