Dairy and Cancer: Milking the Evidence

“My patients respond to the Anticancer Lifestyle Program in a way I find unprecedented in 30 years of Radiation Oncology practice. It helps them feel that we are caring for them, and not just delivering cancer treatment.”

“I am so glad I found the AntiCancer Lifestyle Program. This is an amazing idea and gift. Our son-in-law at 39 has glioblastoma. After surgery, chemo, and radiation we hope, no relapse. Hope, however, is not a plan. My wife and I are changing to help him change.”

Articles & Research

Anticancer’s very own Registered Dietitians Crystal Pace and Taylor Scialo teamed up with our Advisory Board member Donald Abrams to research the data on the connection between dairy and cancer. Their findings were published in Current Oncology Reports.

Summary:

“The overall data on dairy and cancer remains inconclusive. Available data suggests that a diet emphasizing fiber-rich foods such as whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, while restricting milk and dairy intake—similar to the Mediterranean dietary pattern—might mitigate cancer incidence. However, further research is crucial to elucidate the precise role of dairy products in overall cancer risk.”
