I have had many conversations about this over the years, with many doctors and dietitians. The conclusion I came to for myself was to do the best I can. I read every label and avoid processed foods. No box mixes, or canned meals. I avoid as much commercial corn products as I can, and stay away from foods with a lot of added hormones and antibiotics.
I try to buy local as much as possible, local raw honey, local eggs, locally grown vegetables, etc. etc.
I DO NOT, live in bondage to any principle. If I decide during the holidays, I want to get a latte, I do, I do not purchase nut or soy milk I just get a latte. If I want to eat the little chocolate one of the girls at the barn gave me, I do.
I do not do any of these things all the time. I eat a lot of salads, and fresh foods, and almost no meat. I drink tea and tisane instead of coffee most of the time and usually my coffee is just black coffee.
I fight cancer to LIVE, living includes flavors. I plan to enjoy the time I gain by fighting.
My favorite flavors right now are garlic, sage, citrus, and honey. What are the flavors you can’t resist right now?
How can you make those flavors more healthy to live, and fight cancer?
