Prevention
Eat well today to lower your risk tomorrow
Roughly a third of common cancers are linked to what we eat, how much we move and how we manage weight. Small, repeatable changes in the kitchen matter most.
01
Fill two-thirds of the plate with plants
Vegetables, fruit, whole grains and legumes bring fiber and phytonutrients that support a healthy gut and steady weight.
02
Aim for 30 grams of fiber a day
Fiber feeds beneficial gut bacteria and is one of the most consistent dietary links to lower colorectal cancer risk.
03
Make red and processed meat occasional
Treat cured meats as a garnish rather than a main. Beans, lentils, fish and poultry carry the everyday load.
