Experimental laboratory-animal studies observed a strong and mostly causal association between modestly high consumption of animal protein (anything in excess of about 10% of calories) and cancer--an effect that was not observed in the consumption of plant protein. Increasing dietary protein intake to just 20% has been shown to increase a range of serious health problems, including cancer, with each successive percentage increase associated with an increase in response, commonly referred to as a dose-response. There are virtually no nutrients contained in animal foods that are not better provided by plant foods. [2020] - T. Colin Campbell

You’ll find pockets of Mexico like the Lake Chapala area or San Miguel de Allende, and in the Canal Zone of Panama City, where locals, thanks to their long-standing interaction with the many English-speaking residents, commonly speak English. [2014] - Dan Prescher

With dollar-cost averaging (DCA), you invest your money in equal chunks on a set, regular schedule - such as once a month - into a diversified group of longer-term investments. The attraction of DCA is that it allows you to ease into riskier investments instead of jumping in all at once. The flip side of DCA is that when your investment of choice appreciates in value, you may wish that you had invested your money faster. DCA is most valuable when the money you want to invest represents a large portion of your total assets and you can stick to a schedule. [2019] - Eric Tyson

The Sauder School of Business is a great source of up-to-date information on population and demographic trends across Canada. The Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation also regularly updates its website with current information on population and demographic information for would-be buyers. In large cities, such as Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver, population appears to grow very slowly if one only looks at percentages, but the actual numbers are in fact consistently high. In these cities, this means that population growth typically exceeds the total building capacity that can be delivered, thus causing prices to appreciate significantly as demand far outpaces supply. [2012] - Brian Persaud

A consolidation occurs when the exchange rate is trapped in an ever-narrowing area. Consolidations often lead to breakouts. [2007] - Ed Ponsi
