Taking care of our little ones who need surgery to lead a normal life is the best. It’s a privilege to be God’s instrument in healing them.
May they all become wonderful human beings, leading a life most pleasing to Him.

Sharing the post of Dr Dennis Sacdalan. These are evidence-based recommendations for all, specially those fighting cancer.

Some personal insights from the recent ESPEN congress:
1. Benefits of higher protein intake (1.5-2.0g per kg) by patients with cancer include increased protein mass and longer survival.
2. It’s not just the amount of proteins that matter. The quality of proteins and the amount of physical activity are also important in improving survival.
3. Mixed sources of proteins are beneficial. Not all animal sources of proteins are bad. Dairy products do not increase the risk of cancer. Not all plant sources of proteins are good. Potatoes have the lowest quality of plant proteins.
4. Limiting animal proteins is good for cancer prevention. But once a patient is diagnosed with cancer, increasing dietary protein intake improves clinical outcomes for cancer patients (survival and quality of life).
5. The Mediterranean diet and lifestyle (including more physical activity, quality sleeping time, less stress) have many benefits in the prevention of cancer and cardiovascular diseases.

I hope every town/city has infrastructure that encourages people to walk. It’s good for the environment (less carbon footprint) and the people (healthy lifestyle).
