Tip 3: You Are What You Eat

It seems like since birth we have been told that what you eat matters. And some go as far as saying it reflects on you. Regardless on the severity of this it has actually been seen as a contributing factor in breast cancer diagnosis. One of the best tips that I have ever received (and am now passing on to ya'll) is that you should keep an eye out on foods that not only taste great, but also help reduce your risk against this life-threatening disease. Listed below please find a few suggestions:

1. Eat Red and Purple Grapes! Not only are they one of my favorite foods of all time; but they also contain resveratrol, which may block the development of breast cancer. 

2. Snack on Walnuts. Recent studies have illustrated that eating walnuts daily may reduce risk.

3. Eat your meats grilled! Grilling meat can produce carcinogens. You can cut your risk further by adding spices/herbs like rosemary, turmeric, and cumin that are known to help in the fight against cancer.

4. Finally, add flaxseeds to your diet. Flaxseeds contain lignans, antioxidants that may have anticancer effects. So add a tablespoon to your yogurt, oatmeal, or your favorite salad. 

Hope this helps in your fight towards living healthy!
