Plant-based functional food for cancer prevention

Eating your way out of breast cancer

- 

Studies have shown that high intake of calories and total intake of fat, specifically, fried food and those that are high in saturated fat and polyunsaturated fat, like processed meats and ultra-processed food, greatly increase the risk of developing breast cancer.

Animal-based products and dairy, like cow’s milk and cheese, are high in saturated fat. Therefore, breast cancer prevention, as well as prevention of other types of cancer, must lean toward having an eating pattern that is plant predominant, if not one hundred percent plant-based.
