Treatment Tips
How you "approach" your treatment may impact how you respond to treatment. Eating well and staying active may help you cope with treatments, combat side effects, and improve your quality of life.
Take Action
Find the tools you need to manage your everyday well-being. AICR’s interactive nutrition and lifestyle programs can help you understand your body’s dietary needs, create tailored meal plans, help you move more and connect you with meaningful support.
Foods That Fight Cancer
No single food can protect you against cancer by itself. But research shows that a diet filled with a variety of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, beans and other plant foods helps lower risk for many cancers.

The research related to AICR’s recommendations and cancer survivorship suggests that adherence to the recommendations can help in several ways.
