You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Eating better will reduce your risk of getting cancer. If you eat more dark colored vegetables (dark green, dark orange, dark red, dark purple, etc.), you will lower your risk of getting several different kinds of cancer. Those vegetables contain high amounts of vitamin A, vitamin C and other healthy chemicals that can keep normal body cells from turning into tumor cells.

The other kinds of foods you should be eating to reduce your cancer risk are foods that contain whole grain wheat. A diet high in whole grain wheat can reduce your risk of getting colon cancer and other common types of cancer. You can find whole grain varieties of almost every kind of carbohydrate from cereals and breads to pasta and pizza.

There aren’t any specific foods you should avoid eating to reduce your risk of getting cancer. However, being overweight is a risk factor for developing many forms of cancer including breast cancer. As such, to reduce your risk of getting cancer, you should avoid eating more calories in a day than you are able to burn off during that day.
