S2 Ep26: Is there such a thing as a breast cancer diet? - Tamar Rothenberg


Listen Later

What to eat and what not to eat? That is the question.

There is so much information and mis-information out there surrounding nutrition and food. Navigating through the noise can be really difficult, this is more so when you are looking for reliable and accurate information surrounding nutrition around a breast cancer diagnosis.

Tamar Rothenberg is a nutrition dietician who specialises in nutrition supporting those who have had a breast cancer diagnosis.  She’s an adjunct professor of nutrition at Touro College and University and most recently, she co-led the study, Coping with Cancer in the Kitchen, published in Nutrients.

So she knows her stuff!

In this episode we talked about so many topics; from debunking diet myths, to the roles of pre and pro-biotics as well as the role of anti-inflammatory foods and the different types of the mediterranean diet. 

Tamar also brilliantly describes how focusing on 'what you will eat' rather than 'what you won't eat' is a better way to reframing how we approach food.

It was such a great episode, and Tamar shared so much information on foods that are beneficial, specifically if you are either going through a breast cancer diagnosis, or are coming through the other side.
