In 1991, at the age of 69, Mike was diagnosed with metastatic colorectal cancer. His doctors informed him that without surgery, his life expectancy would be limited to just three months. Confronted with such a devastating situation, Mike chose to make a substantial change. He cleared out his kitchen and embraced a vegan diet. Our Most Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan) shares Her insights about the harmful effects of meat consumption on many occasions. “Meat is in reality a concentrated toxin, basically. It contains all the ingredients you mentioned such as the effects of pesticides, fertilizers, genetically modified feeds and chemicals, etc. Meat consumption is also being linked to more and more diseases. This is not even talking about the cruelty of animal torturing and massacring to make the meat for the humans to consume.”An astounding transformation occurred within a span of less than three years. Throughout various interviews, Mike Fremont has emphasized how his dietary changes have given him a second lease on life. At the age of 80, he started to join athletic competitions and became a four-time single-age world record holder. “And the whole foods plant-based is a hundred percent of what I do today. I haven’t had any animal protein which includes eggs by the way, and milk.”“I sincerely believe that it was diet-caused cancer. That’s a very important point to make. The Standard American Diet will kill you. It definitely will kill you. It’ll let you live 50, 60, 70 years and then you’re dead. Many of us are, and that’s what I successfully eluded. And the experience is not unique to me, there are many, many people who’ve done what I’ve done.” “We shouldn’t die so young. It’s absurd. And we should never ever raise our children on the standard American diet! Never!”In an interview with Marc Middleton back in 2022, Mike talked about the key to living a satisfying life at the age of 100. “I can tell you that my own point of view about it is if the greatest rewards that a person can earn come from helping other people no matter in what way, you get the satisfaction out of helping other people. And that’s a tremendous satisfaction. And it won’t quit, it pays off in every way. That itself is the payoff. Nothing else matters. Money doesn’t matter. Looks don’t matter.”
