Can food actually help cancer survivors heal? A research chef at one of the nation's top cancer centers says yes — and she's putting it to the test in a groundbreaking 12-week clinical study.
In this episode, we sit down with Chef Jules, a research chef working in Moffitt Cancer Center's Population Engagement and Research Laboratory (PEARL), designing medically tailored meals specifically for breast cancer survivors battling chemo fog and inflammation. She breaks down the science behind food as medicine, why an anti-inflammatory, high-fiber diet can change outcomes for cancer patients, and what it actually looks like to cook healing food at a clinical level.
What you'll learn:
- How diet directly impacts cancer recovery and gut health
- What the MIND study is testing with breast cancer survivors
- Why an anti-inflammatory diet matters more during treatment than most people realize
- How to make cancer-fighting foods accessible and affordable at home
Whether you're a cancer survivor, a caregiver, or just someone who believes food is medicine — this conversation will change the way you think about what's on your plate.
