Have you avoided a food since you've been diagnosed?

Have you been told to avoid a food?

Or perhaps you've read that you should avoid a food?

It's the most common thing I get asked as a cancer dietitian.

But the real power of nutrition is with what we put into our body.

Let's chat about this 👇🏻

Yes, cancer cells use glucose.

But so do your healthy cells — including your brain, red blood cells, and muscles.

Sugar isn’t *just* what you spoon into your tea — it’s in fruit, dairy, grains, and veg too. The stuff that's good for us.

Cutting it out completely?

That doesn’t “starve” cancer.

It risks undernourishment, low energy, and unnecessary restriction — especially during or after treatment.

What matters most?
✓ Balance
✓ Fibre
✓ Plant diversity
✓ Blood sugar regulation
✓ Eating enough to support your body

We help people navigate this — without the fear, food guilt, or overwhelm.

Don't wait until you get diagnosed.

Look after YOU - there's only one of you.

And there's an awful lot you can do to reduce your risk of bowel cancer.

What are you going to add in? 👇🏻

No, sugar doesn't feed cancer.

It isn't that simple!

If taking out all sugar sources would cure cancer I promise you I'd be shouting loudly about it!

This is a topic filled with so much controversy.

We don't have enough evidence in humans to say we should be following a strict ketogenic diet either.

What do we have good evidence for?

A diet that provides energy from plant sources, and good variety of them. A diet that contains adequate protein, healthy fats and all your essential nutrients.

A Mediterranean dietary pattern can provide all these things.

Think colour instead of cutting out!

Stop the Seed Oil Scaremongering!

The real problem isn’t seed oils — it’s misinformation.

✅ Seed oils in a balanced diet? Provide essential fatty acids, antioxidants & anti-inflammatory benefits. With heaps of evidence to support this.

❌ Ultra-processed foods high in seed oils? Often loaded with fat, sugar & salt, lacking fibre & nutrients.

🔎 See the difference? It’s not about one ingredient — it’s about the bigger picture.

Tired of nutrition fear-mongering? Let’s focus on real science, not fake headlines.

Most people don’t think about cancer prevention. Until it’s too late.

But with 1 in 2 of us facing cancer in our lifetime, we need to start sooner.

Cancer prevention isn’t about cutting out everything you love. It’s about small, consistent habits that support long-term health.

More fibre. More plants. Less ultra-processed foods. Less alcohol.

No extremes. No fear-mongering. Just simple, sustainable changes that matter.

But wake up! Because they really do matter!

Not sure where to start? Let’s figure it out together. Get in touch today.
