Guidelines for Healthy Eating
There are no food or dietary supplements that will act as “magic bullets” to prevent breast cancer from returning. National Cancer Institute guidelines for cancer prevention can be used to decrease the chance of a breast cancer recurrence. These guidelines include:
* Increase intake of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains
* Decrease fat intake to <>
* Minimize intake of cured, pickled and smoked foods
* Achieve and maintain a healthy weight
* Alcohol consumption should be done in moderation, if at all
So, today's recipes include fruit - and it's a great recipe for all the leftover turkey you'll have next week! ;-) I found this recipe on Healthy Kids Recipes (www.healthy-kids-recipes.com), and I can't wait to try it!
