Reducing Your Risk of Cancer Through Diet with Dr Mhairi Morris. Podcast Episode 11

We all want to reduce our risk of getting cancer. It can be difficult to wade through the conflicting advice and sensational headlines.

Today I am talking to Dr Mhairi Morris, lecturer at Loughborough University UK and founder of Essential Cancer Education.

Mhairi explains (in simple terms) the current research. Which foods and diets will increase your risk of cancer, which won’t and which need more research to decide.

Good Cancer Diets

There is enough evidence to say that these diets can help reduce our risk of getting cancer.

  1. Ketogenic (high fat diet that works on keto genesis rather than carbohydrate metabolism)
  2. Mediterranean Style Diet (see Episode 1 The Health Benefits of the Med Style Diet.)
  3. Intermittent Fasting

You can combine intermittent fasting with either the ketogenic or Med Style Diets.
