MF3252 Choose Foods that Lower Your Risk of Cancer

by Sandy Procter

  • Published Date: Nov 2018
The 2015-2020 Dietary Guidelines urge all Americans to “consume a healthy eating pattern” that includes a variety of vegetables of all subgroups. That recommendation reflects research that suggested that diets rich in vegetables, fruits, and whole grains may offer some protection against cancer, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes. Developed with the Johnson Cancer Research Center, this publication guides consumers in choosing a variety of fruits and vegetables that help promote long-term health.
