Cancer Prevention: Your Plate Holds the Key! Foods to Avoid and Include for a Healthier You

  • Avoid sugary foods, soft drinks, and processed meats like bacon and sausages, as they increase cancer risk.
  • Limit red meat consumption, especially when cooked at high temperatures, to reduce exposure to carcinogenic compounds.
  • Reduce alcohol intake; even low consumption can damage DNA and raise the risk of various cancers.
  • Incorporate omega-3 rich fish (salmon, mackerel), pulses, and antioxidant-packed fruits and vegetables (berries, leafy greens) into your diet.
  • Choose cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower) and whole grains (brown rice, oats) to support detoxification and gut health.

Why It Matters: Mindful dietary choices, avoiding harmful foods and including protective ones, significantly lower cancer risk.
