Course Description:
"Foods that Fight Oral Cancer (and other cancers too): Evidenced-Based Eating for Cancer Prevention."  Research suggests that nearly 70% of all cancers are potentially preventable and related to our lifestyles with 30% of cancers attributed to dietary factors. But food can work in our favor, to reduce our risk of cancer IF we eat the right foods, prepared in the right way. In this session, fifteen different foods and their phytochemicals will be discussed as well as the mechanisms by which these foods fight cancer.  Findings from cancer research focusing on chemoprevention of particular foods will be discussed. Tips from research about how to prepare these foods to preserve the maximum potency of important cancer-fighting substances will be shared. This course will be interactive and by the end of the session, each table will have a beautiful plate of colorful, tasty, cancer-fighting foods!
