Cancer Protective Diet

A High Five for High Fiber

The American Institute of Cancer Research (AICR) recommends five servings of whole fruits and vegetables a day, along with whole grains and lean proteins. If you’re not eating enough fruits and vegetables... and other whole foods, you’re depriving your body of fiber which can end up being a problem for your health. Fiber not only helps to keep you regular, but it also keeps you feeling full longer, which can help with maintaining a healthy weight, and it is protective of certain cancers such as colon cancer. Below are some delicious, veg-heavy recipes to help you add more and more of these fiber-rich foods to your diet.
