Gwyneth Paltrow believed that her family is cursed by cancer since many of her family members died of it and she's convinced that her vegan diet could keep her healthy.
Gwyneth Paltrow believes her family have been "cursed" by cancer.
The Oscar-winning actress lost her father Bruce to the disease in 2002, both
her grandmothers and a cousin, who was only 23.
Gwyneth, 34, who is married to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, is hoping her
vegan diet will keep her healthy.
Speaking at an international anti-cancer campaign last night (18.02.07), she
said: "I am challenging these evil genes by natural means. I am convinced
that by eating biological foods it is possible to avoid tumours."
Gwyneth follows a macrobiotic diet, mainly consisting of whole grains, nuts,
seeds, fruit and vegetables.
However, she does have a treat once in a while.
Gwyneth said: "I'm not as stringent as I was in the past. Now I'll have
cheese once in a while or white flour, but I still believe in whole grains
and no sugar."
