Oncology dietitian lists five foods she has every day to fight cancer

A cancer dietitian has listed the five foods you should eat every day, which she says will help reduce your risk of the disease. Nichole Andrews is a registered dietitian and nutritionist

specialising in oncology, with over 15 years of experience in the field. The 38-year-old has listed the five foods she swears by eating daily. She said: “As your cancer dietitian, I’m going

to share with you the five things I eat every single day to help reduce my cancer risk, that you should also include if you like them. “First thing is, I always drink milk. Dairy reduces

risk of colorectal cancer. I recommend getting between 1-2% fat, just because higher fat levels will be higher in saturated fat, and then non-fat is not going to help absorb the fat-soluble

vitamin D.” Next, Nichole says she eats berries daily. She said: “You want to support brain health, gut health, and reduce cancer risk? Have more berries. My favourites are raspberries

because in one cup is 8g of fibre – and fibre also reduces risk of breast and colon cancer.” When it comes to eating staples like bread, rice or pasta, Nichole advises opting for the

wholegrain options. She explained: “They’ll be higher in fibre and more nutrient.” Nichole also says she enjoys drinking coffee and tea every day – and says there is no risk involved, with

some reports even linking consumption of coffee to a lower risk of certain cancers, including womb and liver cancer. And finally, Nichole eats Greek yoghurt every day, which she says in high

in protein and, again, can help reduce risk of colon cancer. Food, she says, is a key way to keep the disease at bay. Nichole said: “I know how amazing and powerful nutrition can be to help

survivors have better treatment outcomes and reduce risk of recurrence. Sadly there is so much misinformation out there, that people cannot eat well – so I am so happy to clear up that

confusion and help people eat with confidence.”
