HTML:<p>Consumers looking for a new defense in the fight against cancer can find expert tips on healthful eating in The Cancer Survivor's Guide: Foods that Help You Fight Back. Written by nutrition researcher Neal Barnard, M.D., president of The Cancer Project, and nutritionist Jennifer K. Reilly, R.D., the guide is based on research showing that diet changes can not only reduce the risk of developing cancer, they can also improve survival. It turns out that many foods that help prevent cancer in the first place also seem to help us beat the disease when it has stuck. For example, diets high in fiber and low in fat tend to reduce the amount of estrogens (female sex hormones) circulating in the bloodstream. This taming of estrogens seems to reduce the likelihood that cancer cells will multiply or spread. And fiber is important in preventing colon cancer, as it helps move food waste out of the body. Step-by-step advice for adopting a healthful diet, comprehensive information on which foods are most effective in providing the body with cancer-fighting compounds, and tips for increasing fruits, vegetables, legumes, and grains and avoiding fatty, fiber-deficient foods such as meat and diary products, which have been linked to increased cancer risk, offer a sound basis for making wiser food choices. Included are more than 130 delicious and easy-to-prepare recipes such as Citrus Basil Salad, Miso Soup with Shiitake Mushrooms, and Potato and Cauliflower Curry that were developed by dietitians and chefs from The Cancer Project. According to Dr. Barnard, "The Cancer Survivor's Guide helps make healthful dietary changes easy with delicious recipes and our special three-week method for tuning up your taste buds."
