Mediterranean Diet Resources

March 6, 2019 By Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN

The Mediterranean Diet is one of the plant based eating patterns that I recommend to my clients as a healthy eating pattern for cancer survivors and those interested in risk reduction. On our oncology dietitian listserve a few weeks ago, someone asked for recommendations for helping clients to make more Mediterranean syle recipes. A lot of great recommendations came up and I wanted to have them all in one place for future reference so here we are! A note about 'Diets' First … [Read more...]

The Truth about Turmeric, Spices & Cancer

January 2, 2019 By Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN

Spices Are Plant Foods! In my past blogs I have emphasized the importance of phytochemicals (which come from plant foods) in reducing risk for cancer. Spices are another great source of phytochemicals. All different types of spices are beneficial: cinnamon, oregano, basil, curry, rosemary, ginger, etc. There seem to be a lot of talk online and through word of mouth about how different spices can "kill cancer." Specifically, turmeric gets named a lot and I have clients who … [Read more...]

December 20, 2018 By Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN

Soy Foods and Cancer: Soy foods and cancer is a hot topic. I got a lot of response from readers, listeners and clients on this topic! HERE'S A PRINTABLE HANDOUT ON SOY AND BREAST CANCER!

Simple Choices Each Day Can Enhance Bowel Health

November 13, 2018 By Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN

In my last post I talked about my 7 daily habits for bowel regularity to prevent and manage constipation. And I also shared my favorite fiber, for anyone who can't seem to get enough in daily foods.  Konsyl is a brand I use that offers psyllium husk fiber with no added sugars or artificial sweeteners.  (FYI since there isn't anything to make it taste good, you will prob need to mix it with some juice or other flavored beverage and follow it with 2 big glasses of water!) I … [Read more...]

7 Daily Habits for Bowel Regularity: Preventing and Managing Constipation

November 7, 2018 By Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN

If you jumped over here from the email to find out what fiber I recommend - here's the link! It's funny because we're all embarrassed to talk about our bowel habits, even though we ALL HAVE THEM! Ok, not everyone is embarrassed. I remember a certain episode on Oprah (probably with my least favorite Dr. in America if you know what I mean : - P ), where there was a lot of poop talk. Size, shape, etc. I will NOT go into all that! Actually I always make my patients feel … [Read more...]
