  • Vegetarian, pescovegetarian, and Mediterranean diets are the best since they are high in fibre and plant-based proteins, which are very different from the Standard American Diet, or SAD, which is primarily composed of red meat and refined sugars.

  • The average person's chance of developing cancer is reduced by 8–9% when they switch to a healthier diet.

  • 6 eating habits that can reduce risk for developing cancer:

  1. Consuming whole foods high in fibre

  2. Consuming less red meat

  3. Consuming a variety of vibrant vegetables and nutritious grains, such as barley or red lentils, brussels sprouts and broccoli.

  4. Walnuts and almonds contain anti-cancer properties

  5. Alcohol and soda raises the chance of liver and breast cancer as well as cancer of the entire digestive tract.

  6. Reduction in consumption of processed condiments such as mayonnaise and sauces.
