Nutrition and Cancer Prevention
by Kim Dalzell, PhD, RD, LD
Food provides more than fuel for the body. Almost everything
you eat can impact how you look and feel. Here are some
dietary suggestions to reduce your risk of chronic disease
and promote wellness.
The Skinny on Fats
A high fat diet is associated with many disease states.
As a general rule, your diet should contain less than 25%
of total calories from fat. Remember that all fats are not
created equal. Saturated fats (from animal products) and
hydrogenated fats (usually found in processed food products
like margarine, salad dressings, etc.) change cellular integrity
and contribute to the disease process. Choose monounsaturated
fats (found in olive and canola oil) for your cooking and
baking needs. Also, increase your consumption of omega-3
fatty acid food sources (from salmon, tuna, and flaxseed).
There is growing evidence that these fats act as a cancer
preventative and work to reduce cellular damage.
Color Your World
Naturally occurring phytochemicals, found in colorful fruits
and vegetables, have been shown to help curb the growth
of some cancer cells. While beta-carotene has gotten most
of the attention in the past, other components--like lutein,
catechins, and lycopenes—are surfacing as antioxidants and
immune system stimulators. Consume at least five servings
of fruits and vegetables per day and choose these flavorful
options more often: berries, broccoli, carrots, kale, red
grapefruit, red peppers, spinach, and yams.
Where’s The Beef?
Heavy consumption of red meat has been linked to colon cancer
and cardiovascular disease. Save beef meals for rare occasions
and replace with soy meals. Studies have shown that isoflavones—chemicals
found in soybeans--have proven anti-cancer activity in some
breast, prostate and colon cancers. Food sources of soy
include fresh or roasted soybeans, soy milk, tofu, tempeh,
and textured vegetable protein.
Bulk Up
In the bowel, fiber softens the stool and aids in the elimination
of potential cancer-causing toxins. When fiber intake increases,
colon cancer rates decrease. A high-fiber diet is also linked
with decreased incidence of prostate and breast cancers.
Most Americans get less than 15 grams per day. The goal
for daily fiber intake is 25-35 grams per day. Choose whole
grain breads, high fiber cereals from bran or whole wheat,
peas and beans, and raw fruits and vegetables on a consistent
basis.
