I don't know what I need to know, lol. As some of you may know I have cancer and will not be going thru chemo or radiation. The Oncologist's programs indicate that I have over a fifty percent chance of living five more years. That's statistical but as we all know disease does it's own thing.
Anyway I found a book at the library about what to eat to give yourself the best shot. It's a bit beyond me as I know nothing about supplements etc. What I do understand is whole grain cereal/fresh fruit for breakfast. Check. Plenty of fresh salads and vegetables (preferably deep colored). Check. Limited amount of meat from natural grass fed animals (mail order items?). Lots of fish but "good" fish. No tuna, sword etc. etc. and wild salmon not the cheaper salmon. No canned tuna. Three natural eggs a week. Whole grain breads with seeds. New rices..no idea why, lol.
I don't eat sweets usually, I use 1% milk, I am drinking green tea with ginseng. Yes, I am still have a Cutty each night or a glass of red wine. That's a book no no but wth I'm old and deserve it. LOL
Back to the point, sigh, I want to alter my diet first before adding supplements. Any other highlights that you guys can offer to guide me but not overwhelm me? I'm not doing tofu, miso etc. Just well chosen "normal" foods. DDD
