What is the importance of nutrition in cancer prevention and screening?

Nutrition plays a crucial role in cancer prevention and can also impact the effectiveness of cancer screening. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can support your immune system and overall health. Certain nutrients may help reduce the risk of developing cancer, while others can aid in recovery post-treatment. Discussing dietary habits with your GP can help you understand how nutrition can complement your screening and prevention strategies.
