Mourouti N, et al.
A comprehensive literature
search was carried out to optimize the diet and nutrition for cancer
survivors. There is a requirement for well–designed large observational
and intervention studies to reveal more light on the relationship
amongst diet and cancer survivorship, and to recommend additional means
for the secondary prevention of cancer.
- The number of cancer survivors is increasing and they are often highly motivated to search for data about nutrition and about physical activity in order to try to improve their treatment outcomes, quality of life and overall survival.
- In the light of these concerns, the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF)/American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) and in addition the American Cancer Society prescribe a largely plant–based diet with limited intake of red and processed meat, and limited intake of alcohol, and also the maintenance of a healthy weight throughout life and regular engagement in physical activity.
