What diet should oncologists recommend? The number one cause of death from breast cancer patients may actually still be cardiovascular disease, making dietary choices critical for survival.

Just a few weeks ago, I did another video you might also be interested in: Diet and Lifestyle for Cancer Prevention and Survival (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/diet-and-lifestyle-for-cancer-prevention-and-survival/).

What exactly constitutes an “alkaline” diet? I recently did a video on that, too. See: Do Alkaline Diets Help Athletic Performance? (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/do-alkaline-diets-help-athletic-performance/).

For more on that Ornish study, see Prostate Cancer Survival: The A/V Ratio (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/prostate-cancer-survival-the-av-ratio/).

Thought the “feasibility” studies were a little weird? It’s no joke. See Changing a Man’s Diet After a Prostate Cancer Diagnosis (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/changing-mans-diet-prostate-cancer-diagnosis/).
