Message:

I would like to know whether the type of food that one eats affects the ability 
of cells to undergo mitosis and to divide.  Various known factors, such as 
internal and external regulators, affect cell growth and division.  For 
example, would malnutrition affect the ability of these regulators to do their 
jobs?  Are there any other ways nutrition promotes or inhibits mitosis?
