    What country has the lowest number of instances of cancer per capita? I'm trying to find out if diet, environment, social habits or any other major factors exist. Maybe it's genetic. There does seem to be a higher proportion of cancer cases in the busier areas; ie, places with more automobiles.

    Does anyone know if an experiment ever took place over a number of years concerning the "eat five and stay alive" where those that ate fruit and vegetables every day had not one case of cancer, where on the other hand, some who never ate any fruit and vegetables did contract cancer?
