Thank you for joining this informative session on how certain foods may help reduce the risk of breast cancer. We explored practical tips, evidence-based resources, and small diet changes that can support overall health and cancer prevention.

Key Takeaways and Next Steps

Eat a Plant-Focused Diet

A diet rich in plant-based foods—especially vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains, and healthy fats—may help reduce the risk of breast cancer. The Mediterranean diet is a great example to explore.

Add Antioxidant-Rich Foods

Berries, dark leafy greens, and citrus fruits are packed with antioxidants, which may protect cells from damage. Include a variety of colorful fruits and veggies for the best benefits.

Incorporate Key Nutrients

Fiber helps regulate estrogen levels, while omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish like salmon and in flaxseeds) support immune health. Also include vitamin-rich foods like those with vitamin C, E, and beta-carotene.

Limit Processed and Overcooked Foods

Reduce intake of ultra-processed meats, refined carbs, and foods that are charred or overcooked (like grilled or fried items), as these may increase cancer risk.

Explore Fermented and Flavorful Foods

Probiotic-rich foods like yogurt, sauerkraut, kimchi, and kombucha support gut health, which is linked to overall wellness. Add garlic, onions, and spices for both flavor and potential anti-cancer properties.
