New Protein requirements? - Redux

Jeff,
I've been reading your Protein Series and came across the statement "Elevated IGF-1 levels in adults can increase the growth rate of cancer. Even isolated plant proteins (like soy) can raise IGF-1 levels."
So Protein raises IGF-1 Levels and IGF-1 can increase the growth rate of cancer.
I've had cancer, don't want it back.
I've been vegan for 8 years, own all your DVD's Jeff and value your opinion.
I try to include in my diet every day a half can of no salt added beans, mainly to ensure I'm getting enough protein.. Is that too much protein?
You give a general outline of what to eat everyday. Dr. Greger gives a more specific outline of what to eat in his Daily Dozen.
He suggests 3 servings of beans/day (half cup servings). Would you agree it's OK to follow his Daily Dozen?
Also, when are you going to write a book?
Much of your Nutrition knowledge is online but it would be great to see it organized in one place in a book.
I bet I'm not alone in that opinion.
You and Dr. Milton Mills. If you ever run into him, tell him we want a book.
I'm 69. Hope you guys start writing soon.
Thanks
