cancer diet fave!

Any one want to share their favorite " cancer diet" kine food. One of mine is box cereal, with Frozen blueberries and organic, plain soy milk. Hey, what else we got to do!!!

I'm at the lake cottage working through a rum and coke.

For dinner I had bar-b-q chicken, with a great sauce, wild rice, beans and peaches cooked on the bar-b-q in booze, and served smothered with ice cream.

I'll have a grilled cheese sandwich for my bedtime snack.

Tomorrow, I'm going to town for the papers etc. so I'll likely treat myself to a Teenburger with onion rings at A&W for lunch. For dinner we're having steak and new potatoes smothered in butter.

It may not be the diet others follow for PCa, but as my PSA stays at zero I figure it's got to be working good for the PCa --- I'm not so sure about the heart.

This weekend I'm going to try my favorite pulled pork recipe with turkey breast. I'll let you know how it comes out.

zufus,
i think people should consider the portion side of their food almost as much as what they eat. moderation is always a good thing. i don't eat steak often, and if it do, it is almost never in a resturant, where they will cover a steak with butter as it is being grilled, and often heavily sprinkled with salt or seasonings loaded with MSG. I grill it at home with none of the extra stuff. And the size, we Americans are use to either having or wanting everything supersized. to many men, a steak isnt a steak unless its a good 12 to 16 oz. When I have a steak its in the 6 to 8 oz range at the most, and any visible fat is removed after cooking.

instead of denying oneself of foods they love, just eat it less often and don't pig out. my wife and i stopped the other American practice of dining at "all you can eat" buffets. here in the deep south, they are among the most popular places to eat. we just don't go to those anymore. you always end up overeating, and you also have to watch people making absolute gluttons of themselves. kind of gross really.

so less is better, and better quality foods is better. i still eat what i want, just less of it, and we eat out less by choice so we can control the quality.

    I haven't had a soda in years. about 3 months ago, I swore off potato chips & french fries. Testing my will power.

    Oh, and I quit smoking last November after 30 years or so. This was pre-diagnosis.

    Every little bit, I guess.

For breafast, I make a smoothy, which consists of blueberries (maybe a cup), a banana, soy milk, and a tablespoon of soy protien ... throw it all in a blender and in 60 seonds its done. My wife liked it, so now she wants one too!

For a change, I'll add peanut butter, honey, or anything else that catches my attention and doesn't run away.

Well.... Breakfast consists of Fiber One with sliced banana and skim milk, and a side of fresh organic.strawberries.

Lunch today was Sockeye salmon on 15 grain bread, broccoli rabe sauteed with about 5 cloves of garlic and a baked sweet potato.  Grapes and orange sherbert for dessert..... haven't decided on dinner yet.  Broccoli, whether it be rabe or regular is a daily staple along with as much fiber as I can get.... plain almonds roasted in the oven makes a great snack also.

Not to scare you Vam ,just passing this on. I read somewhere that skim milk was actually " worse " for PCA then 2% and whole as counterintuitive as that sounds. Soy milk really is pretty good with cereal. Takes a little getting use to but Iactually love it now. I drank skim milk for years.

Ahhhhh... figures, I thought it would be ok due to the 0 fat 0 Sat Fat content....  Looks like I'm going back to 1%.

If I remember... although I maybe mistaken... is Soy really better?? I thought I saw somewhere that the jury was still out on Soy Milk.

My onc said that soy milk was good for your artiers but it also keeps my bowels in check after rad try it it might help Idrink a glass every day but everybodys system is different

Gluten-free Corn Chex with rasberries and soy milk and a cup of coffee for breakfast. A hard boiled egg, a banana and an oatmeal raisin walnut Clif bar with water for lunch. Pulled chicken breast smothered in Sauers barbeque sauce and gluten free macaroni with sharp cheddar cheese for dinner. Icecream for dessert.

We have been using curry to give vegetable dishes more flavor. Curry does not have to be hot and there are lots of variations on the market. We think that lots of flavor helps promote vegetable eating. If you have a hard time finding spices where you live, I have dealt with Penzeys Spices for over 20 years.
We also discovered broccoli slaw, bags of shredded broccoli which looks a lot like the cabbage you would buy for cole slaw. (we get ours at Trader Joe’s) Eat it raw with a dressing. We also cook chopped onions in a bit of olive oil, add in one well chopped spicy turkey sausage, a couple of coarsely chopped tomatoes and at last several handfuls of the broccoli slaw. Serve it over whole wheat pasta.
Those who like the idea of tofu might look for tempeh – also a soy product but firmer and more flavorful. Some cooks think it should be par-boiled but we don’t – just cut it into chunks and fry in a little olive oil.
