The best and easiest way of decreasing cancer risk is healthy diet. Diet can effect either disease occurrence and treatment after disease occurrence.
Nutrition you need to be considered by;
Taken fat should be 25% less than what is eaten. Oil should be natural like olive oil. Steamed and boiled food should be chosen instead of fried food. In this way you decrease oil proportion and you can be protected from carcinogenic effects of fat.
15% of your daily food should be proteins. Excessive protein intake makes growth of breast, uterus, bowel, pancreas and kidney tumor easy.
