Begin A Cancer Prevention Diet: And Lose Weight To Boot!

See Chapter 9 of Avoiding Cancer One Day At A Time for a description of Superfoods and Chapter 10 for cancer preventing recipes.

It is thought that 30-40% of cancers could be prevented through a healthy diet, both thru maintaining a healthy weight and selecting healthy foods.

The American Institute for Cancer Research is devoted to researching the effect of diet on cancer risk, and has excellent resources, as well as recipes available here.

Unlike most "diets" the AICR emphasizes healthy eating habits and shows an understanding of human nature. They take the approach of "proportion" instead of portion size, leaving appetites satisfied. Their recipes are designed to make eating healthy tasty!

They have also published an excellent cookbook entitled "The New American Plate".
