Cancer Project Food for Life

The Power of Food for Cancer Prevention & Survival

Certain diet patterns seem to have a major effect in helping cancer survivors to live longer, healthier lives. Numerous studies have shown that a diet built from plant foods offers the most cancer-fighting protection of any diet plan.

Reviews by the American Institute for Cancer Research showed that as much as 40% of cancer risk may be related to diet.

The Food for Life: Cancer Project classes offer a unique opportunity to acquire knowledge about the link between diet and cancer, experience the benefits of plant-based nutrition, and learn the practical cooking skills needed to help you on your journey to better health.

Featured Class Topics:
