What to Eat & Not Eat to Prevent Cancer Recurrence With Board Certified Oncology Dietician Alison Tierney

The BLUEPRINT from Results to Rising details HERE _______________________________________________________________________________ Alison Tierney, a board-certified oncology dietitian and cancer thriver, shares her personal journey with breast cancer and how she empowers others affected by cancer. She discusses the importance of nutrition and lifestyle medicine in reducing treatment side effects, enhancing quality of life, and reducing the risk of recurrence.    Takeaways: Nutrition and lifestyle medicine play a crucial role in reducing treatment side effects, enhancing quality of life, and reducing the risk of cancer recurrence. Fasting during chemotherapy can help reduce treatment side effects and improve quality of life. Soy consumption is beneficial for cancer prevention and management, as it reduces the risk of recurrence and helps manage side effects. Protein can be obtained from various plant-based sources, and a well-planned plant-based diet can provide all the necessary nutrients. A whole food plant-based diet can provide sufficient protein, and vegetarians and vegans in the US often consume more protein than they need. Incorporating unprocessed grains, such as quinoa and brown rice, into meals is beneficial for nutrition. Processed meats and alcohol are known carcinogens and should be avoided or minimized. Supplements should be considered on an individual basis, focusing on addressing deficiencies in the diet.

Welcome to Not Today Cancer Their mission is to inspire and empower those who have been affected by cancer. Darren's diagnosis of brain cancer in 2009 and Jens breast cancer diagnosis in 2021 may seem like a crazy coincidence, but it's given them a unique perspective on the challenges and triumphs of living with cancer. Through their own experiences, they have emerged stronger and more determined to help others facing a similar journey. As beacons of hope, they are committed to shining a light for those navigating the difficult path of cancer. They know firsthand the fear, uncertainty, and pain that come with a cancer diagnosis, and they want to guide others through this journey towards a place of strength and resilience. Their mission is to show that, despite the challenges, it's possible to Reset & Rise and emerge from this experience as better, more empowered individuals.
