Health and Nutrition Strategies For<br />

Cancer Survivors and Everybody Else<br />

Warren Green is a 30 year member of the Institute of Food<br />

Technology, A HAACP (hazard analysis critical control point)<br />

Instructor with a Bachelors degree in Nutrition Science.<br />

WHAT’S IN YOUR DIET?<br />

evacuated from the hurricane expectations in Northeast<br />

North Carolina. Well, not exactly. It happened<br />

I<br />

that I had scheduled my quarterly oncologist session at<br />

Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, and decided against going<br />

to worst weather, one of my many principles. So we<br />

went west and visited relatives.<br />

Road trips tend to throw me out of my dietary routines<br />

and if I’m not careful, I wind up with the usual dietary issues.<br />

I try to remember to hydrate as much as possible,<br />

take some probiotics if I’m going to eat meat or poultry,<br />

and of course, fiber. Fiber serves to help move the food<br />

through digestive system promoting regularity.<br />

Fiber is being studied to determine if it lowers coronary<br />

heart disease, diabetes,and diverticular disease. Whole<br />

grains are the best source, with fruits coming in second.<br />

I take psyllium fiber supplements, to assure my<br />

30-40grams a day. That’s my road trip strategy.<br />

For the past few years I’ve been tweaking my diet to<br />

determine the best food choices (battling detectable<br />

cancer is a constant dietary balancing act). I define my<br />

diet as a Mediterranean. I’ve eliminated dairy products<br />

(with the exception of high probiotic yogurt), and refined<br />

carbohydrates. The Mediterranean diet is heavy on olive<br />

oil,unrefined grains, heavy fruits and vegetables, high<br />

consumption of fish, moderate consumption of red wine.<br />

I drink a lot of green tea in lieu of water, pomegranate<br />

juice, and of course, red wine. Ninety percent of my fluid<br />

intake contain anti-oxidants.<br />

I firmly believe that anti-oxidants and probiotics are<br />

critical additives in our toxic environment.<br />

Fish oil is also part of my daily intake. Fatty acids<br />

(omega 3 and omega 6) are essential nutrients. Studies<br />

suggest if omega 6 exceeds omega 3, it will cause an<br />

immune system response (inflammation). Your body<br />

doesn’t like imbalances. A daily fish oil supplement assures<br />

omega 3, always exceeds omega 6.<br />

<strong>Final</strong>ly, I’m receiving very positive feedback on our<br />

organic/clean food initiative. I remind you that the USDA<br />

is making a statement with the development of its National<br />

Organic Program. The United States Government<br />

is saying that if it does not say “US Certified Organic”,<br />

the consumer can not be assured that it doesn’t contain<br />

pesticides, herbicides, sewage sludge, and thousands of<br />

federally approved chemicals that damage health. If the<br />

government is throwing up its hands and and allowing<br />

the aforementioned substances into the everyday food<br />

chain It’s up to the consumer, armed with info to demand<br />

change. Starts with policy makers.<br />

Recalls: The major nationwide “voluntary” recall was for<br />

“Ground Beef” from Cargill Meat Solutions, Est. 86R, for<br />

E-coli contamination. I suggest all ground beef products<br />

from Cargill be destroyed. This fecal strain of E-coli can<br />

kill. Might even kill your pet.<br />

Remember, let clean food be your medicine,<br />

Protecting your assets, while providing<br />

the responsive service you deserve.<br />
