Lifestyle changes and nutrition choices that decrease inflammation and acidity can
protect the body from breast cancer. The American Cancer Society recommends a diet
of five or more servings of fruits and vegetables a day, eating whole grains instead of
refined ones, limiting processed and red meats, and limiting alcohol to no more than
one drink per day.
Soy foods should be limited since they contain estrogen that can encourage some breast
cancer [1]. Regular exercise is also a strong cancer preventative [1]; not only does it help
the body eliminate toxins but it also decreases inflammation in the body. After periods
of high intensity exercise, however, restorative bodywork should be performed.
Antioxidants are compounds found in plant foods that prevent cellular damage, cancer
growth and recurrence and should be integrating into a diet rich in whole foods [1].
