Abstract: By making life style changes (eating, drinking, smoking) one can reduce the risk of cancer. A diet high in fiber, low in fat is promoted to help reduce the risk of cancer. Good nutrition- eating a variety of foods in moderation- and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans are reviewed. Specific types of foods such as fiber, fats, cruciferous vegetables, and alcohol consumption are discussed in detail. Reading food labels, cooking methods, and tips on changing eating habits are also presented as ways to help make better food choices. Various menus and recipes are also offered. The appendices include: fiber content of foods; fat content of foods; a guide to determining dietary fat; and a glossary of terms. Helpful general cancer prevention tips are also provided.
