Nutrition and Lifestyle Strategies

On the basis of many years of research into how food choices can prevent cancer, or improve survival once cancer has been diagnosed, scientists at the World Cancer Research Fund estimate that at least a third of cancers could be prevented by making changes in the food we eat, the amount of exercise we take, and by maintaining a healthy weight. 

Each of us now has the potential to very significantly reduce the risk of developing cancer, or having cancer return after successful treatment.  

Join our Food For Life workshops to learn about practical steps that you can take to improve your food choices with other cancer patients and carers; or if you are uncertain whether this approach is for you, come to one of the talks by former cancer patients on how changes in diet had a dramatic effect on their prognosis.  

Excercise can also be of great benefit in increasing your wellbeing and help you to combat cancer.  Come to one of our Exercise Taster Sessions to see which exercise you enjoy most.
