These healthy and nutrient-rich recipes may help protect against many diet-related diseases.
Cancer
Processed meats (bacon, salami, ham) raise risk of digestive cancers, but lean red meat (70g a day) is a good source of protein and minerals. Vary protein to include fish, eggs, beans, tofu and other soy foods. Avoid trans fats, sugar and processed carbohydrate (white bread, cakes, biscuits, sugary refined cereals, confectionery). But when undergoing cancer therapies that affect appetite or lead to weight loss, it’s important to eat whatever you can.
