Meals to Fight Cancer: Breakfast

January 27, 2008 By Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN

Get Your Day Started Right! You have all heard it before. I'm sure Kellogg's started it. But really, the most important meal of the day? Let's not discriminate; I think ALL meals are important. No one meal is more important than any other. They're just, how should I say it ...  'different'. Yes, I'm talking about breakfast! The first meal of your day can be a starting point for getting in cancer 'phyters' (phytochemicals). Breakfast is also important in maintaining a healthy … [Read more...]

Anti-Cancer Spices: Cooking With Curry

January 25, 2008 By Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN

Using Spices Fight Cancer 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 are beneficial: cinnamon, oregano, basil, curry, rosemary, ginger, etc. Spices are plant foods and have concentrated levels of phytochemicals. That's why you get a good benefit without having to use a large volume. For those of you that are not used to cooking … [Read more...]

Should I Snack?I get the question a lot:  Is it better to have 3 meals and no snacks, or 6 small meals a day? As you may guess, there really isn't a simple answer. Here's what we know. When it comes to weight control, the bottom line is calories-in vs. calories-out. If you eat more calories than you burn, then you will gain weight. You could do that with 3 large meals or with 6 small meals. For general health and wellness as well as disease prevention, I think a regular … [Read more...]

Meal Planning Part II: The Grocery Store

January 18, 2008 By Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN

Behind the CartLast time I emphasized the importance of planning. Today's post is about implementing your meal plan at the grocery store.  For the best use of your time, it's best to plan out your meals and THEN make the grocery list. I'll confess though. Sometimes I just go to the grocery store, buy some things on sale and then plan my meals after I get home. That often requires an extra trip to the grocery store on my way home from work another evening to get the extra … [Read more...]

Meal Planning: Your Index to Fighting Cancer

January 13, 2008 By Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN

Hopefully you have taken the challenge to cook more meals at home. Maybe you've even decided to experiment with some new foods or cooking techniques. Cooking works great when you have the time and energy to put into it. Most of us know that an abundance of time and energy is not reality. For the most part, lack of planning (not lack of time or energy!) is the biggest barrier to people eating healthy. There are many days when I get home from work and the last thing I want to do … [Read more...]
