    Macrobiotic diet cancer prevention explored


    Filed under: Prevention, All Cancers, DietsMany cancer patients and survivors I've talked to are know a bit about nutrition if they've successfully battled cancer (from lymph node cancer to skin cancer). I like these discussions, and I use them as fuel to speak about the benefits of a good diet to those who may be undergoing (or about to undergo) chemotherapy.One of the more exotic diet choices for those just starting to study cancer diets is the "macrobiotic" diet. This diet includes items like organic whole grains, fruits and vegetables, soups made with vegetables, seaweed, grains, beans, and miso. Occasional servings of fresh whitefish, nuts, seeds and pickles. Some cancer specialists and naturopaths even suggest that this diet can exist with traditional cancer treatment or be a separate alternative treatment.The foods above sound like a great diet for anyone alive if you ask me, but I can especially see the cancer patient benefiting from these dietary suggestions. What's your take on those foods? Are they in your diet at this time, and if so, why did you choose them?Read | Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments (Source: The Cancer Blog)
