Nutrition in Cancer Prevention and PromotionThe WCRF’s and AICR’s (2007) second expert report, Food, Nutrition, Physical Activity, and the Prevention of Cancer: A Global Perspective, is the culmination of 5 years of rigorous and thorough review of the literature on diet and cancer. Contained within the report are the overriding guidelines to maintain a healthy weight, be physically active, and eat a mostly plant- based diet. The American Cancer Society (ACS) considered that report as well as subsequent comprehensive reviews when developing its most recent guidelines on nutrition and physical activity for cancer prevention (Kushi et al., 2012). The ACS guidelines (Table 22.1) are consis- tent with guidelines for cancer prevention issued by the WCRF/AICR as well as those from the American Heart Association (Lichtenstein et al., 2006), American Diabetes Association (Bantle et al., 2008), and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2010 (U.S. Department of Agriculture and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2010). All people, including cancer sur- vivors, are urged to follow dietary recommendations to reduce the risk of cancer. See Chapter 8 for a comparison of nutrition guidelines to reduce the risk of cancer and other chronic diseases.
