Are carbohydrates good or bad? What are the benefits of fiber? Can
a good diet prevent cancer? And perhaps most important for a cookbook:
How can
I eat healthily and still enjoy my food? Food for Thought by three
nutrition
experts from the Moores UCSD Cancer Center, Sheila Kealey, Vicky
A. Newman and Susan Faerber, tempt the palate with recipes that are
tasty,
easy to prepare and healthy.
Most of the information in the book was developed for the Women’s
Healthy Eating and Living (WHEL) Study, a major federally funded
study that began in 1995 and involved more than 3,000 women in four
states who had been diagnosed with breast cancer.
Food for Thought can be purchased for $20 directly from the Cancer
Center’s Cancer Prevention and Control Program website: www.healthyeating.ucsd.edu.
All proceeds benefit the program.
